The LeCoultre watch brand has a long and rich history, and wearing a pre-owned Jaeger-LeCoultre watch is not like owning a watch from any of the more common luxury watch brands.
Founded in 1833 in Le Sentier, Switzerland, Jaeger-LeCoultre is one of the most highly renowned Swiss luxury watch brands. It’s not as famous as brands such as Omega and Rolex, but those who know their watches greatly value and appreciate the JLC brand due to their meticulous attention to detail, perfection, and beautiful lines.
They are best known for making extremely high quality in house movements or ‘calibres’, often in beautifully styled classic cases. They actually introduced the world’s smallest calibre and one of the world’s most complicated wristwatches. These are two facts about Jaeger-LeCoultre which show that the brand is all about innovation.
JLC are one of those brands that often lose money when bought new.
This means that when you buy a perfect, fully tested and warrantied pre-owned Jaeger-LeCoultre watch from Oakleigh Watches, you will be getting great value for money.
Choosing the right JLC
There are lots of JLC watches to choose from. The most popular and the ones that appear most in our collections tend to be the Art Deco styled Reverso models and the Compressor sports references.
