PAUL-EMILE VICTOR
Up to -400 for 49 days
Paul-Emile Victor spent 7 weeks crossing the Greenland ice cap in 1936. Even in the harshest weather conditions, his Longines chronometers continued to work accurately, helping him to calculate longitude. “These watches made the difference between failure and success” Victor later stated. He devoted his whole life to polar expeditions.
The only thing we are sure to fail is that which we do not attempt.
