Jaeger Le Coultre

Welcome to the latest Second Time Round blog article. Today we are looking at luxury watch manufacturer Jaeger Le Coultre. The story began in 1833 when Antoine LeCoultre founded his workshop in Le Sentier, from which he manufactured watch gearing with his brother Ulysse. Specialising in metallurgy and gear-mechanisms Antoione created the Millionometer in 1844 which was the first instrument capable of measuring components to one millionth of a metre. 3 years later in 1847 LeCoultre created a revolutionary ‘push-piece mechanism’ for rewinding and setting the time on watches, a process which had previously relied on keys to perform this task.

Following on from his father’s work Elie LeCoultre recognised the need to control all aspects of the manufacturing and assembly so he expanded his workshop into a watchmaking factory (a ‘manufacture’). The next 30 years saw LeCoultre’s Manufacture create in excess of 350 different calibers and establish itself as a brand associated with quality and luxury.

In 1903 Edmond Jaeger challenged Jacques-David LeCoultre (Antione’s grandson) to produce ultra thin calibers of his own design. Following this challenge a friendship was formed between the two men which would eventually result in the creation of the brand Jaeger Le Coultre.
