LeGant is a trademark used by Montgomery Ward department stores for watches produced under contract for sale in their chain.
The watches were initially made in Switzerland, and will bear 'Swiss Made' on their dials and movements. Some models, such as the 'QS' were early 'electric' watches, not to be confused with 'electronic' watches, and were an evolutionary step between classic mechanical watches and modern quartz electronic watches. These movements utilized a balance wheel mechanism for timekeeping, as do fine mechanical watches, both vintage and modern. However, the watches were powered by battery (rather than the coiled mainspring to store power, as done in mechanical watches). This hybrid electro-mechanical movement helped to overcome the problem of extremely short battery life in the first electric watches.
The Le Gant name was sold to Seiko in the early 1990's and watches from that era specify 'Japan Mov't', etc. Production was later ceased.
