Louis Moinet invents the first 'chronograph-watch' in history
In honour of the memory of its illustrious founder- and on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of its rebirth- Louis Moinet unveils a visionary creation, positioning the chronograph not simply as a complication- but as a central component of the watch.
'It's probably the most important launch we've ever done.' Jean-Marie Schaller, CEO of Louis Moinet, gets straight to the point in presenting Memoris. The timepiece stands at a historic crossroads: the Ateliers' tenth anniversary, and the bi-centenary of the chronograph invented by Louis Moinet. As such, it was important for the creation to be markedly different from its forebear, as well as celebrate its heritage. While everything- or almost everything- chronograph-related already seems to have been invented, there was still one step nobody had dared take: no longer seeing the chronograph as a complication, but rather as the primary function of the timepiece. So much for watch chronographs; Memoris is the first chronograph-watch in watchmaking history.
