Description
Here is a very early Jaeger LeCoultre Geographique. I say "early" because this model preceded the similar, much better known Master Geographic 1000 Hours, by over three years. Accordingly, this is an important JLC timepiece, which served as an inspiration for the later Master Black and then Master 1000 Hours collections. This watch is remarkably well preserved and working perfectly and features a low case number, attesting to its 1993/94 production.
The Geographique features a window at the bottom of the dial for displaying reference cities. The time corresponding to the reference city is indicated in the subdial at 6 o'clock. Using the crown at 10 o'clock, the reference cities can be advanced forward and backward, and the time adjusts accordingly. This is a very useful complication.
The dial is silver with a radiant brushed pattern. In addition to the world time shown at the bottom of the dial, power reserve is indicated at 10 o'clock and the date in the subdial at 2 o'clock.
Case is polished 18k yellow gold, with dimensions of 37.5mm diameter by 10.3mm thick. Sapphire crystal. Water resistant to 50 meters.
Movement is the in-house automatic winding Jaeger LeCoultre caliber 929. Jaeger makes such nice movements, that several elite brands use them in their own watches, under different names.
Strap is black exotic leather, which shows light use, with an 18k JLC buckle.
