圖錄文章
Known as the "watchmaker's watchmaker” Jaeger-LeCoultre is with no doubt one of the greatest watch manufactures. With many groundbreaking innovations over the last century the brand has been able to stand the test of time like no other thanks to its top of the class calibers.
The present watch, from the early 50s' is powered by the superb in-house gilt caliber P484/1A beautifully hand decorated. On the dial side, this triple calendar indicates the day and the month via two apertures at 12 o’clock and the date on the outer section of the dial. Its large size for the era and its elegant dial design with red calendar indication is further enhanced by gorgeous teardrop lugs that confer to the watch a timeless design.
Presented today in mint condition, this watch has never seen any service and seems to have passed through time without leaving the comfort of a vault. It is time for this sleeping beauty to get some attention!

Jaeger-LeCoultre

Swiss | 1833
Not all companies in the watchmaking field have been able to stand the test of time quite like Jaeger LeCoultre, also known as the "watchmaker's watchmaker." Founded in 1833 by Antoine LeCoultre and originally named LeCoutre, the firm provided watchmaking's top brands, such as Patek Philippe, Vacheron Constantin and Audemars Piguet, the high-grade, unfinished mechanical movements with which they completed their watches.

In the early 1900s, Cartier's watch supplier Edmond Jaeger sought out LeCoultre's help in creating the world's thinnest watches. The collaboration resulted in the creation of Cartier's earliest Tank and Santos watches, all housed with LeCoultre movements. The duo decided to merge in 1937, and the firm officially became the Jaeger-LeCoultre brand by which collectors know and adore it today. Some of the firm's most significant and important timepieces include the Reverso, the Memovox, the Atmos clock and, among modern watches, their Master Complications.
