I had a trip together with dear friends in Switzerland last week and of course I had to stopped to pay my respect to the founding father of the Jaeger-LeCoultre manufacture, Antoine LeCoultre!

On my wrist, appropriate for the occasion – the Jaeger-LeCoultre E 168 Geophysic in stainless steel with the cross-hair dial.

Each time I visit I make sure to pay my respect and thank the man for what he started so many years ago…

This statue is in front of the workshop Antoine LeCoultre started in 1833, the main gate of today’s manufacture.
