II

The perpetual calendar

A perpetual calendar knows how long each month is and when February has 29 days, so the date needs no correction for decades. The first manual adjustment falls in 2100, a year that is not a leap year in the Gregorian calendar. If the watch stops, it is set forward with the correctors rather than by turning the date day by day.

III · The manufacture

Jaeger-LeCoultre since 1833

Antoine LeCoultre opened his workshop in the Swiss Vallée de Joux in 1833. His Millionometre of 1844 brought micrometre measurement into the making of watch parts. Collaboration with Paris watchmaker Edmond Jaeger began with an ultra-thin movement challenge in 1903. The miniature hand-wound Calibre 101 followed in 1929. In 1931, the Reverso’s swivelling case answered polo players’ need to protect a watch face. The partners adopted the combined Jaeger-LeCoultre name in 1937. The Memovox alarm watch joined the range in 1950. Today the Richemont Maison still develops and makes watches at its manufacture in Le Sentier.

IV · Ownership

Wearing and caring

  1. 1

    An automatic watch winds itself while worn. Left off the wrist for a couple of days it stops: wind it with the crown, then set the time and the date.

  2. 2

    Water resistance of 100 m and more is for swimming. Keep the crown screwed or pushed in, and do not use the pushers under water.

  3. 3

    Have the movement serviced every few years by the brand's own service or an authorised watchmaker.
