Three words to describe this video - Epic, Epic Epic!!!
Although video starts with Antoine LeCoultre and then how his partnership with Paris based Jaeger developed but my fancy was caught by the tiny wrist watches for ladies of the 1920's era. To solve the problem of miniaturization they arrange the parts in split levels of two. This something that I as an electronics engineer used to in chip designing or even PCB designing - actually a quite common practice to have a multilayered electronics design. Seems like watchmakers were the predecessors to modern electronic design :-)
From Dual wing concept to Atmos to reverser watches.............. absolutely fascinating. So glad ..... so so glad that you shared this. Thanks.
Whoa thanks for dropping the engineering knowledge mane. I love the 1920s Art Deco era as well.
JLC is one-of-a-kind.
