Leicht-Mayer Lucerne and JLC

apsm100 · Jan 26, 2020

Does anyone have any information on Leicht-Mayer? It is stamped on the warranty information for my JLC E855 (funny how back then a 1 year guarantee was all that was needed).
Thank you.

First time I went to Lucerne was in 1981 and I visited almost all the shops in the shopping district, and I don't recall that jeweler's name. One year warranties were the norm probably well into the 80's.

Interesting. Maybe they folded around that time.

So I did find a little bit more about this jeweller. It looks like they also sold VC and resided on a street named Haldenstrasse in Lucerne. My watch did not travel very far from the Vallée de Joux.

Also an entry in a 1914 document showing a location in Davos and St. Moritz.
