He could answer questions put to him by his colleagues

when they were faced with the difficulties involved in watch

complications. He could see at a glance the faults that pre-

vented his fellow-watchmakers from achieving their aims,

and help them to improve their precious time-keepers.

He spent his whole life firmly rooted to his family home. He

died in Le Locle in 1826 after working for almost 80 years

to perfect his art, the art of the watchmaker.

For many years, he devoted most of his time to develop-

ing a reliable and strong automatic winding mechanism

(around 1760). In doing so he certainly cherished utopian

ideas of perpetual motion, but above all, he had the very

practical aim of eliminating the tedious task of rewinding

pocket watches with a key. Around 1770 Abraham-Louis

Perrelet had already developed and fitted several move-

ments with a so-called "hammer" oscillating weight, using

an initial version of the automatic winding movement called

the "mouvement à secousses" because it was rewound by

a jerking motion.

A few years later – and after many resistance-related prob-

lems associated with the shocks sustained by the move-

ment when the " hammer" weight reaches the end of its

travel – he finally developed an oscillating weight system,

fixed onto the central shaft of the movement, and now usu-

ally known as the "rotor".

For many years, he was one of the master watchmakers in

the Neuchâtel mountains. He remained active until the very

end of his life, very skilful and with extraordinary sureness

of touch. The International Watchmaking Museum in La

Chaux-de-Fonds (MIH) has on display what is certainly one

of Abraham-Louis Perrelet’s last pieces, made when he was

96 years old. Abraham-Louis Perrelet had many pupils,

some of which were a credit to him. These include in par-

ticular Jacques-Frédéric Houriet, regarded as the "father

of Swiss chronometry", who served for two years as his

apprentice before leaving to work with Julien Leroy in Paris.

He also worked closely with Abraham-Louis Breguet and

Louis Berthoud. One of his most outstanding pupils was

undoubtedly his grandson, Louis-Frédéric Perrelet.

Abraham-Louis passed on the torch of the watchmaking

spirit to his grandson, Louis-Frédéric Perrelet, born near Le

Locle on May 4th 1781. From his earliest years he showed

a great interest in mechanics and mathematics. Having

learned his skills thoroughly as a craftsman in his grand-

father’s workshop, Louis-Frédéric left Le Locle for Paris to

complete his studies. Abraham-Louis Breguet, the famous

watchmaker, took him on in his own workshops, and trained
