In 2013, Jaeger-LeCoultre celebrates its 180th anniversary and presents the Master Grande Tradition Gyrotourbillon 3, the tenth creation in the Hybris Mechanica Collection. The Jaeger-LeCoultre gyrotourbillon now appears for the first time with a flying tourbillon, a blued gold balance and a spherical-shaped balance-spring. This masterpiece also achieves another feat by combining the prodigious precision of the spherical tourbillon with the first instantaneous digital-display chronograph presented.
As the masterpiece of the "Tribute to Antoine LeCoultre" Jubilee trilogy, it combines the extreme technical sophistication of the Manufacture and the finishes characteristic of time-honoured watchmaking art with an aesthetic directly inspired by the pocket watches produced by the Manufacture during the 19th century.
