Such is the case with this LeCoultre, one of the most desirable vintage dress models made by Jaeger-LeCoultre.
Named the "Lowell", its distinctive style really stands out, and it was one of Jaeger-LeCoultre's few made for the U.S market crafted out of 18K white gold instead of 14K gold, attesting to its exclusive top-tier position among the company's American watches. And its diamond dial is striking.
Its case is near mint. Its dial is a very nice vintage restoration and is clean. Our watchmaker has freshly cleaned and oiled the movement. It continues to run very true.
For the finished we have just installed a very high quality strap.
Included with the purchase is a one-year warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate attesting to its performance.
A seldom-seen opportunity to own a fine JLC timepiece before it slips into someone's prized collection.
