If nobody knows exactly which woman inspired the first ladies’ watch from the Manufacture, Jaeger-LeCoultre has, however, always devoted considerable attention to ladies’ timepieces in terms of both aesthetics and mechanism excellence. The muse could have been a beautiful actress like Diane Kruger who has chosen Jaeger-LeCoultre timepieces to wear at the Oscars Ceremony and Party, held in Los Angeles (California) on Sunday evening (March 7th 2010).
Diane Kruger attended the Oscars for "Inglourious Basterds", the movie of Quentin Tarantino. She was wearing the diamond bracelet Art Deco 101, which houses the smallest watch movement in the world invented by the Swiss Watch Manufacture, the famous 101 mechanical movement. (Picture with the cast, including Christoph Waltz, awarded best Supporting Actor).
For the Vanity Fair party, Kruger was wearing a 1949 timepiece taken from Jaeger-LeCoultre museum in Switzerland, a watch enclosed in 225 diamonds specially lent for this occasion.
