Jaeger-LeCoutlre is better known as the ‘Watchmaker of Watchmakers’ and we’ve seen some impressive timepieces from them in the past including the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Grande Tradition Gyrotourbillon Westminster Perpétuel we perused in 2019. The JLC Hybris Mechanica à Grand Sonnerie was first presented in 2009 in a limited edition of 30 pieces. Combining a striking mechanism with a Westminster chime, a flying tourbillon, and a retrograde perpetual calendar, this watch is a feat of horology of the highest order. Honored to be able to bring you these images and our thoughts on it.
