It was first established by Antoine LeCoultre (1803 - 1881) in 1833, because of the invention of a machine able to produce pins for watches. LeCoultre was an inventor, and had taught himself to produce watches from scratch.

After the establishment of his first workshop, the invention of the Milionometer followed in 1844. This was a machine for accurate measurement of the smallest watch components. In 1866 LeCoultre and his son Elie decided to bring all skills necessary for building watches under one roof, and they installed a steam engine for this exact purpose. Nowadays the company still produces watches and clocks. Their prices vary between 5000 euro’s for a more simple model, to a few tons of euro’s for more elaborate and exclusive designs.
