　　Historical Journey

　　Since the company was founded in 1833,Jaeger-LeCoultreholding countless patents and making a major contribution to the development of global watchmaking. Due toJaeger-LeCoultreits highly diverse movement production, it is one of the very few watchmaking companies that supplies movements to others. Particularly in the realm of high-end movements, some other brands with lower sales volumes produce fewer movements in-house and therefore choose to use movements made by Jaeger-LeCoultre, which also serves as indirect publicity for Jaeger-LeCoultre. It is a mutually beneficial arrangement.

　　1833: A pioneer in the field of technology, Antoine LeCoultre (born 1803-1881) established his workshop in the famous watchmaking valley, the Vallée de Joux.

　　1844: Invented the world's most precise instrument: the micrometre.

　　1847: Invented the lever-wound crown: the first reliable winding system that allowed clocks and watches to be wound and set without a winding key.

　　1907: Introduced the world's thinnest mechanical movement.

　　1928: Invented the Atmos clock.

　　1929: Introduced the world's smallest mechanical movement.

　　1931: Launched the legendary reversible Reverso wristwatch, an enduring classic in the industry.

　　1950: Launched the Memovox alarm watch designed for professionals.

　　1958: The Geophysic watch made its debut.

　　1992: Jaeger-LeCoultre established its strictest watch testing standard, the Master 1000 Hours control test, ensuring the precision and reliability of the Master Control collection.
