Press releaseThroughout his career, Louis Moinet constructed true horological masterpieces for influential people and important historical figures such as Napoleon Bonaparte, Czar Alexander I, and American Presidents Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe.


Continuing and preserving this historical heritage, Les Ateliers Louis Moinet are proud to count a number of today's celebrities among their prestigious clientele. Last month, His Majesty King Fouad Farouk, the last King of Egypt, increased the number when he acquired a Spiroscope. Even more recently, His Majesty the Sultan of Malaysia also demonstrated his confidence in Louis Moinet, choosing to wear a Jules Verne chronograph.

The mechanical self-winding Spiroscope highlights the oscillations of the balance which is visible through its added bridge. The latter is a modern version of the famous “balance-cocks” as drawn by Louis Moinet in 1848.
