Founded in 1833 by Swiss inventor Antoine LeCoultre, Jaeger-LeCoultre began as a small workshop in his family’s barn, where he refined precision watchmaking techniques and developed groundbreaking inventions. By 1851, his exceptional craftsmanship earned him a gold medal at the World Exhibition in London, solidifying his reputation for accuracy and innovation. In 1903, the company formed a historic partnership with Parisian watchmaker Edmond Jaeger, leading to the creation of ultra-thin movements and officially becoming Jaeger-LeCoultre in 1937.
Over the years, the brand introduced legendary timepieces like the Reverso, Atmos clock, and Memovox, cementing its status as one of the most innovative and prestigious Swiss watchmakers in history.
