Jaeger-LeCoultre is one of the world’s most renowned luxury watch brands. Antoine LeCoultre founded this watchmaking atelier in 1833, and it has been an owned subsidiary of luxury conglomerate Richemont since 2000.
In 1972, an era when watches were distinctly graded into two major categories — dress and sports — Audemars Piguet went against the grain and introduced a watch that converged both these two styles, giving rise to a stellar timepiece we know and love today, the Royal Oak. Decades after its introduction, it remains one of the most iconic and groundbreaking watches ever made.
The ecosystem created by the pre-owned market has successfully provided contentment to individuals who do not connect with the idea of forever and instead, prefer to explore new and exciting options. Moreover, knowing the timepiece that you have enjoyed and are ready to move on from is now with someone who really wants it brings an irreplaceable feeling of satisfaction and relief. It’s truly a win-win for all.
Buying a pre-owned timepiece is a lot more than just selecting the watch you like, which is quite daunting per se. A few more factors come into play to ensure you are getting a fair deal.
