New Identity for Ingersoll by A New Kind of Kick
Established in 1892 by brothers Robert Hawley Ingersoll and Charles Henry Ingersoll in New York, NY, Ingersoll is a brand of high-end watches for men and women sold worldwide. Originally produced by hand and sold at $1 a piece — a day’s wages at that time — the company introduced automated production in 1896 with the help of none other than Henry Ford and since then have been producing high-quality watches used and praised by many, including notable individuals like U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt and Mahatma Gandhi. In the 1930s they worked with Disney to create the iconic Mickey Mouse watch where his hands tell the time and by 1957 they had made 25 million of them. Passing through a number of owners over the years, the Ingersoll brand is currently owned by Zeon Watche
