Sunday picture: Jaeger Lecoultre Geomatic E 399.
A superb specimen I owned, from 1964:
Intact bevels, superb case, untouched magnificent dial...
Even the date didn't bother me, which means a lot.
I replaced it by a rose gold version, E 399, too. But which came with the box and the papers, and from 1964.
Not too bad, I must confess... The only colored gold watch in my collection.
Best,
Nicolas

One coloured gold in the collection?
That makes it special. With a date that doesn\'t bother you, makes it special too. Nice examples of clean watches. Thanks for sharing, Kolosstt
+1 on the aura of this RG Geomatic !.. But sure nice to have B + P.. Just to enjoy ! :))
Also I love the caseback with the planisphere - another element of pleasure ! Just sending kind greetings on mine, also the only one in RG. Best my friend, hs Highlight on the wrist Pleasure on the wrist Hallmark of the Geosphere ...
It's been with me for 5 years, now. I don't wear it too much, though.
BUT once on the wrist, it is always a pleasure. Best, my friend. Nicolas
Geomatic....
Geophysic, both of them are poisonous things for my brain Thanks for sharing this beautiful watch.... Ronald
Remarkable!
Not just the watch but your story that goes with it. Steel turning to gold (alchemy!); a vintage piece with the box and the warranty (archeology at its best!); and the ability for you to match it with your Geophysic. Serendipitous and extraordinary. Certa...
I don't blame you, Nico..
The RG Geomatic is a watch full of allure and charm. Happy Sunday, hermano! Alex
