Please note that the watch is smaller than todays larger standard, so please check the case measurements below.
My asking price is very good value for a watch that will only rise further in value. Such is the high quality of the watch, I will include a six month written guarantee on the movement, which is long enough for you to assess the running order. I also include a professional insurance valuation, in excess of my asking price. Also, I offer a full refund if you are not entirely happy, as long as the watch is returned within seven days if UK customer, fourteen days if overseas, in the same condition. Please feel free to arrange to view the watch in central London.
The curved Art Deco solid steel rectangular case is in excellent, clean condition with minor wear. It measures 22.5mm wide, excluding the original recessed crown x 39mm long including the lugs. The back closes tightly and the outside is signed ‘488236’. The inside is signed ‘Jaeger LeCoultre’, ‘Acier Staybrite’ and reference ‘52377’.
The original, restored silvered dial is in excellent clean condition. It features applied Arabic numbers and is signed ‘Jaeger LeCoultre’ and ‘Swiss’. The original blued steel hands, including sub-seconds hand, are in excellent unbent condition and the lens is very clear.
The original hand-wound movement has just been oiled by a professional watchmaker and is in excellent working order - brighter and cleaner than photographed.
This beautiful watch comes complete with a used leather strap. The watch also comes with a new quality watch box.
A very special vintage watch from one of history's most famous names; highly collectable. Will provide an excellent financial investment as well as a possession to enjoy.
