Photo book celebrates craftsmanship

What's the magic behind craftsmanship? The Jaeger-LeCoultre Yearbook, which celebrates its eighth anniversary, unveils the secrets of craftsmanship through photography.

Through the creative hands of artisans and craftsmen, the book explores the complicated and sophisticated process of watchmaking from enamelling, modelling and painting to leather bracelet-making. Models highlighted include the Hybris Artistica and the Master Ultra Thin Minute Repeater Flying Tourbillon.

The book also pays tribute to craftsmanship in other industries, such as stain glass window-making and violin construction.
