Jaeger LeCoultre Model 9120 Wrist Watch. Just a cursory search result.
The JLC 9120 is a manual-wind, dress watch from the 1970s. This was a period of transition for the watch industry, caught between the traditional elegance of mid-century designs and the looming quartz crisis. The 9120 is very much a watch from the "old world," emphasizing thinness, refinement, and mechanical purity.
It's part of a family of watches that used the same or very similar high-quality, ultra-thin movements.
In summary, the Jaeger-LeCoultre 9120 is a benchmark of 1970s dress watch elegance. It's a timeless piece, powered by a superb movement, and represents a fantastic entry into the world of collecting vintage JLC.

Thanks!
Really enjoy the thinness as well and how the strap seamlessly fit underneath the edge of the case - hiding the connection. Thank you!
First,, welcome to the forum! I just love watch designs from the 70’s!
That case design is very unique ( appealing to my eyes ) and the dial with those larger indices work well together. I like how the strap looks integrated into the case. Well one.
Love the strap connection as well!
Thank you! And I am glad I am not the only one who finds this particular model pleasing to the eye
