JERGER TIME / JERGER CLOCKS
The company origins date back to 1866 when Wilhelm JERGER invented, developed and produced alarm clocks and precise time-measure instruments, as well as hundreds of other ideas, patents and products. The Jerger company is also known as pioneers of headphones, loudspeakers, precision regulators and cable connectors under the trademark 'ADJ INDUSTRIES' in the early 1930s.
Uhrenfabrik Wilhelm Jerger in Baden.
It was founded by the clockmaker Wilhelm Jerger (1845–1921) in 1866 and was active for 34 years before merging with the Uhrenfabrik Villingen. Jerger Clock's history is especially interesting today because around 1900 there was a dispute in the German horolitas about which firm, Jerger or Junghans, had first made Amerikanerwerke (American type movements).
Jerger proved the first, and the Grand Duke of Baden awarded Jerger the Zähringer Löwenorden (The Order of the Lion) for his services to Baden.
Adolf Jerger (aka Jerger GmbH & Co. and Jerger Time Systems) which used a TM "Jerger Uhren".
