Pre-owned Jaeger Lecoultre watches

Founded in 1833 by Antoine LeCoultre in Switzerland's Vallée de Joux, Jaeger-LeCoultre is one of the most prestigious manufacturers in Swiss watchmaking. From the outset, the brand stood out for its innovative spirit. In 1844, Antoine LeCoultre invented the Millionomètre, the first instrument capable of measuring a micron, revolutionizing the production of watch components. The manufacture would go on to develop some of the most complex movements, mastering all stages of watchmaking under one roof — a rarity in the world of fine watchmaking.

In 1903, the meeting between LeCoultre and Parisian watchmaker Edmond Jaeger marked a turning point. This collaboration gave rise to a series of remarkable complicated watches, and in 1931, the legendary Reverso was born. Designed for polo players, the watch featured a reversible case — both practical and elegant. Now a true Art Deco icon, the Reverso continues to embody the brand's ingenuity and sophistication.

Throughout the 20th century, Jaeger-LeCoultre pursued its quest for excellence. It created the Calibre 101, the world's smallest mechanical movement — famously worn by Queen Elizabeth II on her coronation day — as well as the Memovox, the first automatic alarm watch. Timepieces such as the Polaris, the Atmos — a clock powered by temperature fluctuations — and the Geophysic further enriched its technical and aesthetic legacy.

The brand navigated the 1970s quartz crisis by focusing on mastering complications and perfecting its finishes. From the 1990s onward, Jaeger-LeCoultre returned to prominence with new editions of the Reverso, as well as modern collections like the Master Control and the Rendez-Vous, aimed at women seeking horological sophistication.

Today, Jaeger-LeCoultre is celebrated for its ability to blend tradition, innovation, and design. The brand's vintage models — especially 1930s Reversos and 1950s Memovoxes — are highly sought after by collectors, reflecting their enduring value. The maison also offers refined reissues of historical pieces and has launched a certified pre-owned program called The Collectibles.
