In The Making: Polishing | Jaeger-LeCoultre

Within the Manufacture Jaeger-LeCoultre, the polishing workshop is responsible for the very last step of the watch assembly. Our skilled craftsmen use their expert touch to bring out light and reflection of every visible watch component - the case, bezel, lugs, and crown - called mirror polishing. Through years of practice, our artisans learn to feel every subtle gesture in the dark, honing their unique technique.

Wonderful video!!! I can see she lives on the edge (loose hair around a high RPM machine) but joking aside, truly one of the finest watchmakers!!! Ive enjoyed my Reverso for 5 years now, bought it used and 5 years later and 30+ other watches, it is still THE MOST BEAUTIFUL in the collection and makes me smile and stare in AWE ebery time I put it on my wrist!!

Truly, the best watchmaker.

What an incredible look into the skill and expertise required for such superb polishing! Top notch cinematography as well. This entire "In The Making" series has, in my opinion, really captured not only the ethos of JLC as a brand, but the spirit and passion for watchmaking as an artform. Kudos! 👏

This inspires confidence. I like those types of videos that show the work done by all the metiers within the watchmakers'.
Unlike Tag that ruined my Link bracelet satin finish...

I hope that JLC pays this woman well.
I look forward to owning a Reverso. Every watch collector should have a Reverso in the collection.

What kind of wheel for use in "dremel" size for mirror polish. I really look for a small polish wheel like that but in real soft material for ending touch polish plastic modells clear coat to mirror finish like motorbikes cars and so on:) there are wool wheels and small cotton wheels for example for that but i think that is a softer small wheel for the detail form polishing in the video

Long loose hair on a rotary machine is very dangerous !!!

I've had atrocious polishing from a JLC factory service. Angles obliterated to indistinction. The left and right lugs were not even the same size anymore. I had asked for only a light polish to brighten it up, specifically stating it was not necessary to remove all scratches. The JLC company boutique rep said not to worry, as the factory are experts. Now I'm left with something closer to a blob of used soap, and regret.

[@edwardchang2210]

your polishing must not have been done by the girl in this video

[@ThriftyCHNR]

What model was it? Was this the Texas service center?

[@WatchGeek]

​@@jaegerlecoultrethank you for this response!! I have a Reverso DuoFace that I will be sending in for service this year, and the comment from the person made me panic, but your response has given me a piece of mind 👍
