Founded in 1833 by Antoine LeCoultre and based in Le Sentier, Switzerland, Jaeger-LeCoultre has been at the forefront of timepiece engineering for well over 170 years. In 1844, LeCoultre revolutionized the watch industry with the invention of the millionometer, an instrument with which measurements of up to one thousandths of a millimeter could be made accurately. As a result, precisely finished components could be manufactured, resulting in greatly improved accuracy in timekeeping.
