Memovox - JLC and Favre Leuba
I wish I had the opportunity to go - it will undoubtedly be a fascinating experience.
I saw that on the booklet for Service Mundial JLC was mentioned together with Favre Leuba - was there a connection between the two companies at one point in time ?
It intrigues me, as I have a JLC myself and have inherited an old Favre Leuba from my father, so it would be interesting to find out that there is a lineage between the two companies.

JLC and Favre Leuba were the same group from 1969 to 1978
A little bit of looking back in the mirror: Historically speaking, the two Jaeger and LeCoultre entities were consolidated in 1927 under a holding company called SAPIC (Société Anonyme de Participations Industrielles et Commerciales), HQ'd in Lausanne. In...
Thanks for the history lesson
I learn so much from you Clavi. Thank you, this is really interesting stuff. Best, respo
