Designer
Emmanuel Gueit
Emmanuel Gueit came from a family of Geneva jewellers and was barely into his twenties when he drew the oversized Royal Oak Offshore in 1993 — a watch the house's traditionalists resisted and collectors turned into an icon.
Historical significance
Jaeger-LeCoultre Atmos 37 mm Meteorite 18k sits within Jaeger-LeCoultre's Atmos line, introduced in 1980. It carries the house codes established since 1833 — 18k yellow gold case, meteorite dial and in-house manual-winding, hand-finished — and is one of the references collectors use to date the evolution of the collection.
Interesting facts
- The case is finished by hand, alternating polished and satin-brushed surfaces in a single pass so the edges stay razor sharp.
- The bracelet tapers across its length, which is why the profile looks thinner on the wrist than the specification suggests.

Brand history
Jaeger-LeCoultre has spent more than 193 years refining a single idea: a watch should outlive its owner. From the earliest workshop pieces to today's Reverso, the house has balanced technical ambition with a recognisable design language, and its collections remain among the most closely followed by collectors worldwide.
Antoine LeCoultre established Jaeger-LeCoultre in 1833, working from Switzerland at a time when precision was measured by hand. The founder's obsession with finishing and accuracy still defines every Jaeger-LeCoultre calibre produced today.
