  • Today we kick off a series recently filmed during my 2017 Switzerland tour. In this first episode I visit one of my favourite Swiss luxury watch makers, and share the journey from raw materials to finished timepiece with a brand renowned for their in-house manufacturing. Jaeger-LeCoultre is like no other brand, with a long history of innovation and a plethora of iconic timepieces that proudly bear their name. In this exclusive, behind the scenes video, we take a look at some astounding ATMOS clocks, highlights from their museum, and awe inspiring watches featuring many of their grand complications. From the famous Reverso, to a duo-metre chronograph, a perpetual calendar with a Tourbillon, and of course, their insanely cool GyroTourbillons, Jaeger-LeCoultre is truly a legendary brand.

    Best video you’ve ever done. I’d pay them to work in their polishing department! I’ve had on my shortlist of next watch purchase in a year or two the JLC Master Ultra Thin Moon in steel with silver dial. After seeing this, it’s now top of the list.

  • @047x
    @047x 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It’s just marvelous ! I couldn’t choose appropriate words to appreciate such a care for their history and respect for the “Art of Watchmaking”. Also thank you for being such a gentleman and posting your own personal experience on TH-cam. I’m a big fan and a watch enthusiast, starting my collection with the Seiko Alpinist. You inspired me a lot in making this decision. Hope u continue to amaze us with ur great videos, I must say they’re a gift for Watch collectors.

      Isse Al O Sorry, grammar nazi here, if you say "this" the proper word would be "here", not "there". You would say "there" if you said earlier, "that"
      For example:
      That is some quality stuff right there.
      This is some quality stuff right here.
      Sorry, I know, annoying grammar police. Heck, it could have just been a typo and I am making this comment for nothing.

    Dear Tristano!
    Smetana: Moldva is a beautiful music in your intro. I tried a few new, solid Jaeger Le Coultre watches on. J. L. C. is one of my favourite brand, planning purchase one timepiece in a few years.
    The visit and workshop and filming of the factory is just amazing and absolute pleasure to see all of that! Beautiful work! Thank you... oh, and guys, I'm really happy to read all of your comments!
    I am glad to see many watch enthusiast friends from all around the World!

    TGV, Thank You so much for producing this video tour. Last night at dinner I decided to play it on our big screen while watching dinner and my wife and daughter were fascinated. It is seldom we can find anything to watch at dinner that we all like especially with the doom and gloom of the news and these tour programs are just the ticket. We will continue to watch them at dinner until there are no more to watch and will watch the next tour tonight! Also a huge shout out to the production quality, music and editing of these programs, they especially look and sound good on our 4k TV and soundbar with subwoofer, very professional. We look forward to seeing more and Thanks again. Joe / Northern Calfornia

    My Jaeger le coultre was my father's. It has been maintained regularly & is now sixty years old.
    It is as fine a piece as the day it was ready. It's a simple elegant design; self winding in a rose gold case. I treasure it & a new one is beyond my finances.
