Here we have an exceptional Jaeger Chronograph from the 1950s featuring a stunning 34 mm stainless steel case with sharp 18k rose gold lugs. A beautiful brown/copper colored dial with gorgeous rose gold handset and hour markers.
It was produced after Jaeger and LeCoultre had entered into a formal partnership in 1937, but while nearly all Jaeger-LeCoultre chronographs were still marketed with the Jaeger name signed dial and on the movement. You rarely find them in the all original condition like our example.
