GREAT DEAL ON THIS PRE-OWNED PERRELET CHRONOGRAPH!!!
Born
in 1729 Abraham-Louis Perrelet was an innovative watchmaker since his
youth. His father was a farmer and carpenter, but was also a skilled
craftsman, manufacturing extremely precise tools for local watchmakers.
Working with his father, plowing fields and assisting with the joinery
in winter months, sharpening saws and fashioning little bellows,
Abraham-Louis developed a passionate interest in watchmaking. At the
age of 20, he decided to focus entirely on watchmaking.
Through
the years as his reputation as an inventor and skilled craftsman grew
and his expertise was soon in great demand. He produced the first ever
watches with cylinder, duplex, date and equation escapements. He
perfected the finishing and enhanced the pinions, wheels, escapements
and winding mechanism. Abraham-Louis Breguet was trained in his
workshops as well as his grandson, Louis-Frédéric Perrelet, inventor of
the split second chronograph. Amazingly his dexterity and extraordinary
steadiness of hand did not diminish with age. The Musee Innternational
d'Hortogerie in La Chaux de-Fonds houses what is surely one of his very
last works, created at the age of 96. He passed away in 1826 having
devoted almost 80 years to developing watchmaking techniques.
