SIHH 2010: Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Grande Tradition Grande Complication Watch
Swiss manufacture Jaeger-LeCoultre continues its string of exceptional accomplishments in the high complication category with a brilliant new Master Control watch bearing the prestigious Grande Tradition banner. This white gold timepiece presents not only a tourbillon and minute repeater–a watchmaking feat in itself–but also brings into play an ingenious rotating star chart with zodiacal functions and indications for sidereal as well as solar time. As an added attraction, the display for sidereal time–a 23 hour, 56-minute, and 4.091 seconds “day” measured by Earth’s rotation relative to the fixed stars–is actually accomplished by the tourbillon cage itself, which slowly orbits the dial in synchrony with this specialized astronomic period.

A close examination of the compelling galactic dial of the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Grande Tradition Grande Complication watch reveals a wealth of fascinating astronomic information. The stars as seen from the northern hemisphere and the varied constellations blanket the mystical blue dial surface, which is actually a lacquered disc positioned above a lower disc bearing the little rotating sun which indicates solar (24-hour) time. Directly atop the lacquered sky is the slowly orbiting flying tourbillon with its pulsating balance wheel and continually revolving ultra-light titanium cage. The dial rehaut displays the zodiacal signs and the months, enabling the wearer to follow the apparent motions of the constellations through the year.

Impressive as all of this is, the 527-parts which comprise the Jaeger-LeCoultre 945 Caliber movement have yet other surprises in store. The minute repeater mechanism that chimes out the hours, quarter hours, and individual minutes upon request whenever the case slide is activated, utilizes two exclusive innovations which Jaeger-LeCoultre claims offers a real boost to acoustic performance. The first of these is a proprietary “trebuchet hammer” that significantly improves the velocity and force of the striking hammers compared to those in traditional repeaters. The second is a square-profile cathedral gong manufactured from a single piece; the gongs are attached to a thin layer of metal which contacts the sapphire crystal. This construction provides excellent amplification of the already robust chime, all while enabling the house to produce a watch case insulated enough to be water resistant to 50 meters.

The tourbillon escapement of the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Grande Tradition Grande Complication watch is also most innovative. Rapidly beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour, the watch’s balance wheel bears a hairspring featuring a Breguet terminal curve. Notably, the components of the escapement are produced from silicon, a material requiring no lubrication in the manner of traditional metal components. The use of such advanced escapement materials in no way diminishes Jaeger-LeCoultre’s adherence to traditional methods where movement finishing is concerned; a sapphire crystal exhibition window shows off nickel-silver bridges displaying a rich variety of decorative patterns, steel parts with anglage, and screws with a brilliant rhodium plating. As with other exceptionally complex Jaeger-LeCoultre movements, each JLC 945 Caliber is the responsibility of a single watchmaker to assemble and fine tune to perfection.

Jaeger-LeCoultre is to produce just 75 examples of the Master Grande Tradition Grande Complication watch, each in a 44mm case of 18-karat white gold, with an elegant strap in alligator leather. Like all references in the brand’s Master Control collection, the Grande Complication will undergo the famous 1000 hour in-house test; these comprehensive, grueling trials verify the precision, water resistance, and other performance aspects of the timepiece in a fully-assembled state. Official pricing information has not yet been announced, but a number in the high six figures would be reasonable to expect.

Jaeger-LeCoultre AMVOX2 Rapide Transponder Watch – Unique in Every Feature

0

Posted by admin | Posted in Jaeger-LeCoultre watches, watch | Posted on 19-11-2009

Tags: , , , , , ,

The Jaeger-LeCoultre AMVOX2 Transponder is a unique timepiece born due to successful engineering collaboration with Aston Martin, the legendary British manufacturer of luxury sports cars. Both companies are undisputed leaders in their respective fields, having established their partnership in 2004.

The AMVOX2 Rapide Transponder watch, a true masterpiece of miniaturization and engineering, is created exclusively for owners of the Aston Martin DBS and now for owners of the Aston Martin Rapide.

The new Jaeger-LeCoultre watch is equipped with a miniature transmitter system to be used for locking and unlocking an Aston Martin Rapide car. Yet the timepiece has maintained the functions of the illustrious vertical-trigger mechanism – the push-button-free chronograph.

Approaching his car, the driver presses the OPEN position on the watch glass (found between 8 and 9 o’clock) thus activating the door opening system. When he needs to close the vehicle, the presses the CLOSE position (between 3 and 4 o’clock.)

Moreover, the watch provides a “find me” function. The luxury sports car owner simultaneously presses on the “OPEN” and “CLOSE” rectangles to make the watch emit a signal that is recognized by the vehicle and the car headlamps light up for a few seconds, while the car is still locked, so the owner can immediately find his car.

The AMVOX2 Rapide Transponder watch demonstrates a fine combination of two materials – is issued the watch base, with the lugs and crown, is entirely crafted from satin-brushed 18-K pink gold, while the pivoting case is crafted in brushed grade 5 titanium.

The black dial of the timepiece demonstrates a grille-type motif. It is completed with rhodium-plated metallic numerals provided in the center with a luminescent black-substance coating. At 6 o’clock you will notice the movement operating indicator featuring the Aston Martin wing emblem. The Rapide symbol, gilded the same as the hands and hour markers, is floating in the center in a window that allows a glance at the ruthenium mainplate and bridges of the sophisticated movement.

It is also noticeable that the minute and hour chronograph counters are sculptured in aluminum.

The outer dial ring that shows the OPEN/CLOSE transponder indications allows to see (between 4 and 8 o’clock) the charming lever mechanism responsible for the chronograph functions and boasting a break caliper design.

The miniaturization of the transponder module, that is accommodated on the base, including its wiring and its transmitter antenna have been thoroughly redesigned to match the principles of watchmaking, having united technical sophistication with a smart integration within the overall watch design. Jaeger-LeCoultre engineers worked hard on the research and development for over 18 months, having closely collaborated with Aston Martin.

You should agree  that it seems quite easy to understand how to operate the Jaeger-LeCoultre AMVOX2 Rapide Transponder, while its creation represented a daunting challenge.

First of all, the engineers had to miniaturize each transponder part, having reduced its size to be housed inside a watch case. The transponder acquired a thickness and diameter to provide supreme user-friendliness and comfort, yet it corresponds to the technical and security peculiarities inherent to the car itself. The engineers came up with a module with a weight of just a few grams and with the size more than two times smaller than that of the transmitter found inside the Aston Martin Rapide key.

A mechanical watch may be compared to a Faraday’s cage protecting the movements from the influences of electrical fields affecting the rating precision. The Jaeger-LeCoultre engineers had to create an innovative antenna to make the watch boast the reliability of the brand’s movements and incorporate a perfectly operating transponder positioned close to the metal oscillating weight. The antenna had to be placed as far as possible from the movement and the case, and the engineers decided to use the sapphire crystal as a medium.

The antenna is metallized on the inside of the sapphire crystal in a shape reflecting the inner bezel ring curve between 4 and 6 o’clock, and is linked at these strategic points to the OPEN and CLOSE rectangles . As a result, the activation of the transponder locking system does not require any displacement of any part of the timepiece, making contact with the OPEN and CLOSE zones.

New Delphi was honored to host a remarkable celebration, which was arranged to unveil the line of exquisite jewelry and superb timekeepers from the watch manufacturer Jaeger-LeCoultre, released for the first time in India. This festive event saw the attendance of special guests: style icon and superstar Hrithik Roshan and his gorgeous wife Sussanne Roshan.

The luxury jewelry and watches from this spectacular collection were presented by models in the course of the graceful fashion show, which reached its culmination point, when Sussanne and Hrithik Roshan stepped up to the center stage, exposing some of the amazing products, manufactured by Jaeger-LeCoultre.

This showy debut took place in the presence of the capital’s celebrities, the social elite and corporate circles as well as the glitterati brigade. Designers Ravi Bajaj, JJ Vallaya, Suneet Verma, Aparna Chandra, Malini Ramani, Manav Gangwani, Leena Singh, Rohit Gandhi and Rahul Khanna were among the eminent personalities, who attended the event.

It was also visited by Sanjeev Bijli from PVR, Ambika Pillai, actress Nisha Singh, Gaurav Raina & Tapan Raj from Medieval Pundit, models Michelle, Ayesha Prem & Sapna Kumar and many others.

The brand was proud to introduce the following breathtaking items:
- Le Lierre, a jewelry set, consisting of a cuff-watch, a necklace, a pair of earrings and a ring, embellished with an unprecedented number of 12000 gems with a total weight of 160 carats. Just as well, it is illuminated by a play of two exclusive yellow diamonds.

- Reverso Squadra Lady, which offers up an uncompromisingly feminine vision. Equipped with two faces, this marvelous watch from Jaeger-LeCoultre features the iconic design and the irresistible glistening of diamonds. The straps, coming with this model, are fast and easy to change. Inside is the brand’s proprietary innovative movement.

A perfect union of the traditional Reverso Squadra features and supreme gracefulness, this model is paved with 36 diamonds, intended for a lady’s delicate wrist.

- Master Twinkling Diamonds, which is a true embodiment of extreme gracefulness. Impossible to resist, this dazzling product successfully brings together two complex arts: exclusive watchmaking and exceptional jewelry-making.

- Reverso Neva, encouraged by the word “neve”, which means “snow”, when translated from Italian. Implying also the name of the river “Neva”, Saint-Petersburg was built on, it recalls the bewitching beauty of the river, glittering with fascination against a snowy landscape background.

The infinitely small technique is a kind of sublimation of the jeweler’s art. A true innovation, the “snow” precious stone setting implies that the underlying metal is completely submerged beneath the gems.

- Joaillerie 101 Manchette, which is a glaring watch, dressed in a multitude of precious stones and materials. Both a useful complication and an aesthetic creation, this model plays with the space just like the exclusive jewelry products, it was encouraged by.

Animating this timekeeper’s functions is the world’s tiniest movement, incorporating a 101 mechanism.

It is definitely only the Jaeger-LeCoultre manufacture that could give birth to such impeccable horological items, which combine sophisticated technical elements and the finest gemstone mounting techniques.

Charity involvement of Jerome Lambert, the brand’s CEO, is another detail worthy of noting . He has rendered his financial assistance to the HR Foundation, established by Hrithik and Sussanne Roshan, whose participation in this grand launch was aimed at improving living conditions for poor children all over the world.

Antoine LeCoultre’s Peak in Himalayas

Tags: , , , , , ,

 Conquering a new mountain always represents a remarkable adventure, especially when it comes to the magnificent Himalayan range running along the north of Nepal. This time the challenging task was accomplished by three courageous climbers, sponsored by the renowned Swiss watchmaking house Jaeger-LeCoultre.

The team was formed of the Swiss mountaineer Stephane Schaffter, 19-time Everest veteran Apa Sherpa and Little Karim, who happens to be an acclaimed expert in this domain. The members of the party succeeded in ascending a 6,589-meter peak, in spite of constant avalanche threats and the base camp, being heavily snowed. The mountain has been officially entitled “Antoine LeCoultre’s Peak” in order to pay homage to the brand’s participation in the event.

Jaeger-LeCoultre watches, distinguished by impeccable functionality, were exposed on the wrists of all three mountaineers. It is worth mentioning that the watches chosen to represent the brand, were issued in different periods of time. For example, one of the participants treated his wrist to a Jaeger-LeCoultre Geophysic Chronometer, released in 1958. It is an iconic timepiece, featuring an anti-magnetic stainless steel case and hour and minute hands applied with luminous compound to make the dial highly legible.

Stephane Schaffter wore on his wrist a Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Compressor Extreme LAB watch. With a tourbillon incorporated, this highly advanced from a technological standpoint model was unveiled in 2007. The Jaeger-LeCoultre watch is a clever blend of technical performance and horological components, such as a case, sculptured in titanium, a tourbillon cage in a magnesium alloy, as well as a mechanism, engineered to function free of lubrication.

The third participant of the extraordinary event wore the brand’s timekeeper, which is currently running through its final production stages. it is scheduled to be presented in January at the 2010 SIHH industry exhibition, which will take place in Geneva.
