A view on a flat watch, the Ref 1901 from Jaeger Lecoultre.
There is a category we don't often discuss during our vintage trips: Flat watches from JLC.
Which is quite surprising, as JLC had an interesting offer, in this domain.
Basically, The Grande Maison released, in the Sixties, different references, such as the 1901, 1903, 1913, 1918, 1925, 1947..., which came in two sizes of case: 32 and 34 mm, avalaible in 18 Kt Gold or in stainless steel.
Both of these references using the Cal 818.
Both being flat, with a reasonable height of approximatively 6 to 7 mm.
tow kind of lugs, though: Welded, like on the ref 1903 and 1947, or not, like on the 1925, as shown on this catalog from 1963, borrowed to Clavi.
That being said, let's now focus on the Ref 1901.
