I have see this ad, but my French is a bit rusty...
Not sure if the text actually refer to a specific collection like the JLC 125 Jubilé.

If I had to guess, I would say that:
7317 - Auto/Date
7372 - Auto/No date
7373 - Auto/No date
7199 - Auto/Date
+ 3 more?
All 39 Jewels Gyromatics.

I would include an ealry Deep Diver. Maybe an Alarm?
And a Chronograph? That would be interesting to know! Best, my friend. Nicolas
I have been wondering about this for some time now....
And my conclusion was that it referred to 7 39 Jewels Gyromatics. But your idea sound more fun! :) Will keep digging! Best Blomman
I don't think they put 7 39 Jewels in this selection.
I think the 7 models are distinct. Just to show the different talents of the brand. Yes, we should ask! Best, Nicolas
Caliber 21 was in production in....
Different iterations between 1956 - 1961. Great ad, Tony! :) Best Blomman
