Leroy is a traditional watch brand and the beneficiary of an exceptional heritage that has been handed down from generation to generation since 1747, the year in which Basile Charles Le Roy began his apprenticeship with the Parisian master watchmaker Quentin.

Its workshops, officially established in 1785 in the arcades of the Palais Royal, have written some of the most beautiful pages in the history of French watchmaking and timekeeping, based on the passion of two dynasties of craftsmen whose genius was inspired as much by the applied arts as by science. Known as the 'royal watchmaker', Leroy watches have transported this influence through ages. The timepiece we are presenting you here is an outstanding example of this influence.

The most famous clients of Leroy were Queen Marie Antoinette, Count Axel de Fersen and the Minister of Sweden. Today, the important historical L.Leroy watches are presented in the Leroy Museum.

From a carefully preserved private Swiss collection, this exceptional pocket watch represent a rare opportunity to acquire authentic pieces of horological history.
Spanning different eras of watchmaking, this marvelous timepiece reflect a period when every movement was assembled and finished largely by hand, long before modern industrial production transformed the art of watchmaking.

This piece make part of these watches that were created by renowned makers who supplied noble families, royal courts and distinguished gentlemen of their time. Beyond their mechanical beauty, they are true witnesses of the evolution of craftsmanship, precision and decorative arts.

Many examples feature beautifully engraved cases, enamel work, finely decorated dials and elegant hand-finished movements, showcasing the extraordinary savoir-faire and artistic métiers of their era. Each watch carries its own charm, character and historical presence.

The watch has been carefully stored for decades in a Swiss bank vault and preserved in remarkably well-kept condition considering the age of this historical piece. As with all vintage and historical timepieces, a service is always recommended prior to regular use in order to ensure optimal functioning and preservation.

Whether you are a passionate collector, a lover of history, or simply someone seeking an object with soul and provenance, this pocket watch offers the unique chance to own a genuine fragment of horological heritage.
