Jaeger & Benzinger

Handmade Dials

Deep in the Black Forest of Germany you'll find one of its most historical and beautiful cities - the spa resort town of Baden-Baden. It's this city that Jaeger & Benzinger watches calls home. This German brand is the brainchild of Kay Jaeger, who has spent much of his adult life investigating, nurturing and promoting German hand-made craftsmanship. Kay is the founder of Manufakturmesse, an annual event which exhibits the finest hand-made German products. But his real love is watches, and that's where his friend Jochen Benzinger enters the picture.

Together, Kay Jaeger and Jochen Benzinger search for the finest materials and parts to create Jaeger & Benzinger watches missing no detail. Even the packaging is made by hand. Using the traditional German watchmaking techniques of hand guilloche, hand engraving and hand skeletonization each Jaeger & Benzinger watch is essentially a unique piece since these techniques will never produce an exact copy.

A Lasting Legacy

The dials are made by hand and employ traditional Breguet frosting rarely found on modern timepieces. Flame blued screws, perlage of the main plate as well as the hand-wound movement's guilloche three-quarter plate complete the design. Each Jaeger & Benzinger watch is a testament to the brand's passion for horology and its commitment to producing exquisite, one-of-a-kind timepieces that capture the essence of craftsmanship and artistry.

While Jaeger & Benzinger may be a boutique brand in the watchmaking world, its watches have gained a cult following among connoisseurs who appreciate the blend of historical craftsmanship, artistic flair, and technical precision embodied in each meticulously crafted timepiece. As the brand continues to create bespoke watches, it remains a beacon for those who seek not just a timekeeping device but a wearable work of art with a rich horological legacy.
