After the Geophysics, let's see some other superb vintage JLCs. A Futurematic has just found a new home, and this one, with this dial, is quite a rare bird: It is the 4th I see with this dial. It is just mesmerizing.
Another find, during this GTG, a Polaris 1965, not a Lecoultre, but a Jaeger Lecoultre. As you can guess, our friend was quite thrilled to get it. I've seen several Lecoultre, but less often Jaeger Lecoultre signed.
As we are into diving watches, a couple of Deep Sea Alarms, US and Europe, belonging to our dear Blomman: This Europe is just gorgeous. Some will point out that the hands are not the same, but both are correct for the two Deep Sea Alarm. How many of us are lucky enough to get the pair?
What about a Military, now? A nice WWW. Always a pleasure to fall on one. The chrome plated case has lived a tough life, which adds to its charm.
A Triple Date Black has found a new home, too: One of the most elegant vintage Jaeger Lecoultre ever made. Tear drop lugs, 36 mm case, superb movement. And this black dial is such a feast for the eyes!
A simple Memovox can be an extraordinary find... This one, housing a manual winding movement, from the Mid Fifties, is in great shape, and comes with its original tag. On the tag, it is written Ref 1282A, white gold numbers. No wonder why one of us immediately jumped on it.
