Fully agree on Jaeger. It’s a German name and at least to me it seems legitimate to pronounce it in its original language. Most Swiss Germans do so. On the other hand Edmond Jaeger was born in Alsace which was French at the time (before it became German and then French again). Edmond went to Paris before teaming up with LeCoultre based in the Vallée de Joux. Not surprisingly the brand itself uses the French pronunciation. Although this seems to be the preferred way you could get away with the German version.

To the people suggesting Jaeger should be pronounced with a German accent: Edmond Jaeger was a frenchman, born in Andlau, Alsace, a region of France both nowadays and when he was born, so you should pronounce both Jaeger and LeCoultre like he's pronouncing them, with a French accent.

Well, however in Alsace Jaeger is pronounced the German way. It doesn't mean when a region is located in France that they all speak French. In Alsace many (older) people speak a mixture between a German dialect and some French words included! So pronouncing Jaeger the German way seems more correct to me than to pronounce it French! 🤔
@julienducarroz8138 Жыл бұрын
So he likely would’ve still pronounced his name the German way but to end the argument, all people from geneva pronounce Jaeger like the German way and Le Coultre in french

Tudor. Family name of fairly early English Kings and Queens, including the infamous Henry the eighth. Pronounce it like “ Chew - duh”. Also, your repeating “ Hublot, Hublot,” reminded me of the wonderful 1950s JaquesTati film ‘ Les vacances de Monsieur Hulot ’ or ‘Monsieur Hulot’s Holiday’ in English.
