Women's Jaeger-LeCoultre Watches

A gifted inventor, Antoine LeCoultre created the world’s first tool for polishing pinion leaves. Nicknamed “La Bringue,” the invention earned him enough in 1833 to found his own watchmaking workshop at age 30. In the 1840s, he invented the Millionomètre, measuring the micron for the first time. It was used as an industry benchmark for over half a century.

In 1847 came the first keyless watch winding system. Joined by Parisian watchmaker Edmond Jaeger in 1903, Antoine's grandson, Jacques-David, produced the world’s thinnest (calibre 145) and smallest (calibre 101) movements. Thus was the Jaeger-LeCoultre partnership was born in 1937.

The women's line features the Manufacture, which offers many versions of the iconic Reverso and Grande Reverso for women with geometric shapes in true Art Deco style. The Rendez-Vous Day and Night, Rendez-vous Date and Rendez-Vous Perpetual Calendar come in a variety of shapes, colors, and precious metals. Jaeger-LeCoultre also offers haute horlogerie watches; the Rose Extraordinaire watch blooms in a crystalline version, illuminating the wrist with nearly 14 carats of diamonds.
