A self-taught watchmaker and prolific inventor, Antoine LeCoultre is one of the greatest figures in the history of watchmaking. Since 1844, his technological innovations—keyless winding, shock-resistant cases, and the manufacture of miniature components—have revolutionized the profession and set industry standards. Along with Parisian timekeeper Edmond Jaeger, he supplied prestigious brands such as Vacheron Constantin, Patek Philippe, and Cartier with movements that enabled innovative watch designs. Today, Jaeger-LeCoultre preserves its artisanal expertise and is a major player in precision technology and design. Using previously unseen archives and photographs, Jaeger-LeCoultre traces the history of its historic manufacture. A catalogue raisonné of the brand’s famous movements and timepieces, including the Reverso and the Atmos, makes this an essential reference work for all watch collectors.
