The watch brand for true royalties… It is with great excitement and pride that we are offering this ultra-high-end small production boutique brand L.Leroy. Crafting watches only in precious metal, L.Leroy has a very Small annual production of about 100 pieces a year, often sold directly to private clients through high-end dealers. The brand has never been discounted. The brand is a rare collaboration between the Swiss and the French. Two ateliers located in Bienne, Switzerland, and Besancon, France - the cradle of high watch-making in France. Perfect harmony in traditional watch-making techniques, involving painstaking-attention to detail, classic guilloche on dial, flawless polishing of the case. Each watches exhibits classic and timeless design, utilizing the best watchmaking artisans. Each watch takes hundreds of hours to craft, hand-finish and regulate. The time-only and chronograph movements involve beautiful finishing and fine-tuning to the standards of National Observatory of Besancon, known for the gold standard for precision. These models come with the Besancon certificate as shown in the photo. The long production process results in more exclusive than most commercially available brands out there. With the ultra small production at the high-end level, unfortunately most people can’t have the opportunity to even look at a Leroy watch, but I recommend everybody to seek it out, should the opportunity ever arise. They are, in my opinion, one of the finest watch manufactures on the planet, and could represent an incredibly strong brand in the years to come, not unlike A. Lange & Sohne, Guy Ellia, Laurent Ferrier or FP Journe. In a world of watch snobs, Leroy is good as gold. L. Leroy only makes watch in precious metal, never in steel. Consistent with Leroy's value for highest level craftsmanship. All Leroy timepieces come in a heavy and luxurious wooden box crafted by one of the best high-end cabinet makers in the world, and made from expensive wood, and then hand finished. It is lined with leather, with golden metal hinges. Similar quality boxes would sell for $1000 on their own. Amazing!

The movement (caliber) of the Osmior monopusher has been manufactured in Switzerland, partly in the Val de Travers, and partly in Le Locle, a world famous center for the production of top-of-the range watch movements. The caliber comprises an automatic movement with additional module of the column-wheel chronpgrah mechanisms, entirely assembled by the master watchmakers of Les Ateliers L.Leory in Besancon, France.
Official Besancon Chronometer Certification:
Each L. Leroy Osmior automatic mono-pusher chronograph undergoes a series of checks at the Observatory of Besancon. Contrary to the COSC certification, which tests the rating precision of the movement only, L. Leroy has its watches certified in their entirety. It tests the watch “heads” individually for 16 consecutive days, in five different positions and at three different temperatures. The results are compared with the atomic clock of the Observatory. This certification testifies to the high degree of precision and smooth operation of the watch tested. The “Bulletin de marche de Chronomètre” (chronometer rating certificate) is granted only to watches having successfully passed the trials conducted in accordance with the ISO-3159 norm. Besançon Observatory is one of the few accuracy testing institutes in the world entitled to grant this certification. Within the watch industry, the “viper’s head” hallmark of the Observatory has indeed been a token of accuracy since 1897.

About the history of L. Leroy chronographs:
"The automatic monopusher (single push-button) chronograph in the Osmior line is an exclusivve creatiom from teh company's watchmakers who drew their inspriation from the exceptional timepieces int eh brand's private musuem.
Manufacturing chronpgrahs has been a speciality of L. Leroy for almost a century and half. The company was the world's first to develop and patent a chronograph capable of measuring time to one hundredth of a second and, a few years laer, to one thousandth of a second."
About L. Leroy the brand:
Leroy was founded in 1747 and is the oldest of all the top watch manufactures. In fact, it is older than Patek Phillippe, Vacheron Constantin, Breguet, and Audemars Piguet. L.Leroy has a venerable royal history. By 19th century, it was the most prestigious watchmaker in Europe. Appointment royal watchmaker by Louis 15 and Queen Elizabeth and King of Portugal. Throughout history, countless famous historical figures were clients of L.Leroy’s pocket watches and watches, as recorded in the company register. Owners of L.Leroy watches include, among artists and literary figures, Debussy, Chopin, Proust, Alexandre Dumas, Wagner, and Matisse; among statesman, Alphonse de Lamartine, Napoleon III, General De Gaulle, General Eisenhower, Roosevelt, and Churchill. Other famous clients include Alfred Nobel, St. Exupery, Lindberg, Paul-Emile Victor, Marcel Dassault, and the list goes on…
Historically, L. Leroy was far more famous, precious and horologically important than Breguet, as the premier choice for royalties.
The brand is a rare collaboration between the Swiss and the French. Two ateliers located in Bienne, Switzerland, and Besancon, France - the cradle of high watch-making in France.
The long production process results in more exclusive than most commercially available brands out there. About the technique of hand-guilloche used on all L. Leroy watch dials:
Astonishing in its beauty and precision, guilloche is one of watchmaking’s rarest art forms. Engraved patterns interlace, creating lines often so fine that they are barely visible to the naked eye. Created using a rose engine that dates back to the late 19th century, each line of guilloche is crafted by a master engraver, who skillfully controls the speed and pressue of the rose engine to ensure the flawless depth and symmetry of the pattern, representing traditional watchmaking excellence at its most exquisite. Those few master craftsman with the patience, dexterity and passion necessary to master the craft are as rare a breed as the rose engine themselves. Today, Switerzland has less than 10 full-time guillocheurs. L.Leroy especially champions and aims to preserve the art of guilloche and does that on all of its watch dials, as well as on automatic rotors with open display backs. No expense is spared in making these exquisite dials. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Shipping: Free Shipping in the US.
