How to choose your Jaeger-LeCoultre watch?
Three criteria guide the choice of a Jaeger-LeCoultre watch: the design language you prefer (Art Deco, classic or sporty), the complication you want, and your budget. At Auberi, the Jaeger-LeCoultre selection spans the manufacture's full range, from the reversible Reverso case to the high-end pieces of the Master family, with instalment payment available via Alma up to €15,000. Founded in 1833 by Antoine LeCoultre in Le Sentier, in the Vallée de Joux, the manufacture has remained fully integrated: it designs and produces nearly all of its components in-house, a rare trait in Swiss watchmaking.
The current name dates back to 1937, the year of the union with Edmond Jaeger's Parisian house. As early as 1844, the Millionomètre devised by Antoine LeCoultre laid the foundations for the precision the manufacture is known for. In 1931, the brand's most recognisable piece appeared: the Reverso, whose reversible case was designed to protect the crystal during polo matches played by British officers in India.
