In general, the priceless pieces created throughout the twentieth century at the company, commemorating its 190th birthday this year, reveal an actual “Golden Era” of craftsmanship.

Jaeger-LeCoultre Collectibles: More than just a book for decoration

Every reputable watch manufacturer has a collection of books, publications, or journals that typically examines its historical past. The Collectible by Jaeger-LeCoultre is a comprehensive database that lists and thoroughly analyzes the company’s 17 most prominent timepieces from the previous century.

These 17 versions were released between 1925 and 1974, according to The Collectibles. Besides, timepieces such as the Triple Calendar and the Futurematic are exceptionally thrilling. However, the book also features collector favorites such as the wacky Memovox Parking of the 1950s and the striking Polaris II of the 1970s.

In addition, every watch version has a chapter that details its historical background, production numbers, dial modifications, and other details. Each piece’s creative history is depicted in the records with in-depth images.

In other words, this isn’t just a pretty coffee table book. Instead, enthusiasts will be quite satisfied with the comprehensive description provided by the watchmaker’s specialists.

This comprehensive analysis of the iconic watches from the twentieth century is the first released by Jaeger-LeCoultre. Nevertheless, there’s a lot more to The Collectibles than just that. With the book, Jaeger-LeCoultre is able to evoke feelings while also bringing the pieces to life. This is because Jaeger-own LeCoultre’s webpage offers online shopping for 12 watches from this particular era.

Furthermore, even before marketing them, every watch is completely restored and refurbished at the Jaeger-LeCoultre factory. In contrast to the typical pre-owned timepiece industry, where the acquisition of replacement parts is usually no longer accessible and might not originate from the manufacturer, this is a fantastic additional value.

Customers will additionally receive an upgraded bracelet, a piece of the book The Collectibles, and an excerpt from the Jaeger-LeCoultre records on top of the recently serviced watch. On the other hand, buyers may occasionally receive the original packaging, paperwork, and bracelet from the manufacturer as well.
