Jaeger-LeCoultre
Jaeger-LeCoultre has a history of timepiece engineering stretching back more than 175 years. It was in 1833, in the little village of Le Sentier in the Swiss Jura mountains, that the chronicle of Jaeger-LeCoultre began. The Manufacture has an impressive range of world firsts, superlatives and legendary models to its credit, including the Reverso, the Duoplan, the Master Control, the Memovox Polaris, the Gyrotourbillon I and the Atmos. Another is the crown winding system which eliminates the need for a winding key and which was invented more than 150 years ago by Antoine LeCoultre himself.
The partnership between Aston Martin and Jaeger-LeCoultre began in 2004 with the launch of the Aston Martin Jaeger-LeCoultre gentleman’s watch - the AMVOX1. The limited edition timepiece housed precision engineering in a design inspired by the past which revived a link between the two companies that goes back more than 70 years. The dashboard of the giant killing 1.5-litre Aston Martin LM from the 1930s – a regular class winner in international motorsport including Le Mans – was dominated by Jaeger instruments.
Aston Martin and Jaeger-LeCoultre share many philosophies. Each company has a rich heritage and both are dedicated to producing the finest hand-crafted designs in their respective fields. The partnership between Aston Martin and Jaeger-LeCoultre is a true celebration of a common goal: perfection.”
