JAEGER LECOULTRE

The Manufacture Jaeger-LeCoultre was born in 1833 as a small workshop in Switzerland, created by Antoine, an excellent watchmaker and a brilliant inventor. In 1844 he changed the watch-making world forever by inventing the Millionometre, so components could now be measured and produced with unparalleled accuracy. So highly regarded were LeCoultre movements, that the Manufacture provided ébauches to great Swiss houses. Audemars Piguet and Vacheron Constantin are still using movements from Jaeger-LeCoultre. The technical excellence of the Manufacture continues to this day. It still manufactures all its own movements and cases - and finishes both to a superb standard. Above all else, it continues the traditions of Jaeger-LeCoultre - creating innovative, interesting and desirable movements, watches and clocks such as the AMVOX2 Chronograph produced in partnership with Aston Martin. It is the latest patented technical breakthrough: its vertical-trigger chronograph. This ingenious mechanism makes it possible to start, stop and reset the chronograph simply by pressing on the sapphire crystal of the watch case, so there is no need for push buttons.

Displaying three dimensions of time on three faces, the Reverso grande complication à triptyque is a world first and a unique expression of the Manufacture’s total mastery of both traditional fine-watchmaking tradition and avant-garde technology. Its manually wound mechanical movement offers some unique subtleties of construction as well as extraordinary horological complications. On its front face, it has a tourbillon endowed with an ellipse isometer escapement, a masterpiece of design and execution. Its back face features a zodiacal calendar with an astronomical chart, an equation of time and sunrise and sunset times. The watch’s third face is remarkable for its unique location: a perpetual calendar in the Reverso carriage. In total, the timepiece boasts 18 complications, and has 6 patents pending.
