Jaeger Lecoultre Triple Date Moonphase 150th Anniversary.
For the 150th Anniversary of the brand, Jaeger Lecoultre decided to release one of the most elegant Watch from their past, the Triple Date moonphase. A Watch which was born in the 40ies, and which has been resurrected in... 1983, along with a few others, ...
+1 on admiring these jewels.. Timeless beauties.. In part with a tint of extravaganza !..
