This important work reveals the journey of the Cezveciyan Family, who have been watchmakers in Turkey for four generations, and the Longines brand in Turkey through archival documents, while also shedding light on the unique role of sahafs in the transmission of culture. The book offers an in-depth look not only at the history of watchmaking, but also at the historical role of the sahaf culture. Introduced at the launch event in Istanbul with a music concert and special presentations, this book is a work that attracts everyone from watch enthusiasts to history buffs.
