The story behind Jaeger-LeCoultre
Jaeger-LeCoultre was founded in 1833 by Antoine LeCoultre in Le Sentier in the Vallée de Joux in Switzerland. The area is known for its concentration of specialized watchmakers and precision mechanics. From the very beginning, LeCoultre worked with precision and the development of tools for measurement and production. He created instruments that made it possible to manufacture more accurate watch movements.
At the beginning of the 20th century, the company began a collaboration with the French watchmaker Edmond Jaeger. The collaboration led to the development of ultra-thin movements and new technical solutions. In 1937, the name Jaeger-LeCoultre became official. The brand quickly gained a reputation for supplying movements to some of the world's most prestigious watch manufacturers. At the same time, they developed their own models with a strong design identity.
Jaeger-LeCoultre has since been one of the most innovative manufacturers in the industry. Production continues to take place in the Vallée de Joux, where design, development and manufacturing are brought together under one roof.
Innovations and iconic models
Jaeger-LeCoultre has created a long list of technical breakthroughs over the years. The brand has developed more than a thousand calibers and obtained many patents.
The Reverso was launched in 1931. The watch was developed for polo players who needed to protect the glass during matches. The reversible case is now a design icon and one of the most recognizable watches in the world.
The Atmos watch was introduced in 1928. Powered by small changes in ambient temperature and requiring almost no winding, Atmos is considered a technical and aesthetic reference point in modern watchmaking.
The Memovox was launched in the 1950s. It was one of the first wristwatches with a mechanical alarm. Later versions were developed for diving and professional use.
