Classical vintage JLC in approx. 35 mm steel case. The case is highlighted by its beautiful tear-drop lugs. Dial is off white colored and has stunning texture. Hands and applied indexes are rose gold / bronze colored with patina and they bring perfect contrast to the matt dial. Although there are some marks of previous life left in the movement, it is running well and accurately and has been serviced at our atelier. The watch is fitted with a new Hirsch mid-brown alligator leather strap. The watch comes with our service letter containing information about the watch and brown suede leather travel pouch. The watch has likely been manufactured between 1945-1958.
