Vintage Jaeger Lecoultre Automatic Watches.
A family picture of what I had. From let to right:
P 476 / E 163 Powermatic Jumbo / E 501 Futurematic / E 855 early one ( 1959 ) / E 329 Crosshairs / Geomatic Rose Gold.
I sold the P 476, Powermatic and the E 329 Crosshairs. Kept the 3 others.
But it was great to build a collection around vintage JLC watches, which were pioneers for JLC. The P 476 was the first one for the brand, the Powermatic was original with its power reserve and we don't have to introduce the Futurematic.
Best,

Particularly like The E329 crosshairs and the Geomatic roségold. Lovely classics.
Superb ! I like a lot the E 163, E 501 and E 855 .... I would like to acquire a vintage JLC without date ! [nt]

The Deep Sea Alarm is another Memovox, like the Polaris and many others. You have the embarassment of the choice. [nt]

You know? More choices may only mean more enjoyement,
during the process of evaluating each piece, for its benefits, quirks, particularities. A compare and contrast, as you told me once, should be enjoyed in its entirety, patience and thoughtfulness, goes a long way here. Wise words, from a wise Vlad....
Moreover, said potential next watch may always be a piece of you, even if only under evaluation for acquisition. Such joy may equal, if not surpass, actual enjoyment of the piece you end up with.

I totally hear you. I would go for a " simple " Memovox, as a first one. Have an eye on our JLC forum, I will post something on a couple of hours about that. [nt]
