In ancient Greece, a Heraion was a temple dedicated to the goddess Hera. Jaeger-LeCoultre used this term in the early 1990s for an entire collection of timelessly elegant wristwatches. In addition to classic 2- and 3-hand watches, it also included 2 chronographs with the Meca quartz movement cal. 630 and 631.
