Jaeger-LeCoultre, as Official Timekeeper of the Diamond Jubilee Pageant, (Windsor Castle from 11 to 13 May 2012), is delighted to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Her Majesty's reign.
Jaeger-LeCoultre CEO Jérôme Lambert presented Queen Elizabeth II with a 101 jewellery watch, a tribute to the timepiece Her Majesty wore on her coronation day in 1952.
"The entire Jaeger-leCoultre family is honoured to see the 101 back in the Royal Collection," said Jérôme Lambert to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, who was amazed at the sight of this watchmaking masterpiece of minute proportions. Since 1929, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Calibre 101 has held the record for the smallest mechanical movement in the world, with its 98 tiny components totalling less than one gram.
