Founded in 1833 by Antoine LeCoultre in Switzerland’s Vallée de Joux, Jaeger-LeCoultre revolutionized watchmaking by uniting all crafts under one roof, becoming the first Manufacture in the region. Known for precision, Antoine invented tools for producing the most accurate calibres. In 1903, a historic partnership with Edmond Jaeger fused French elegance with Swiss mastery, solidifying the brand’s legacy. By 1888, Jaeger-LeCoultre employed 480 artisans, leading the industry. Today, it continues to honor its heritage of innovation, craftsmanship, and timeless design as the Grande Maison of watchmaking.
