Looks great, got any more info?
That's a beauty and now I know where the new version comes from. So what do you know about this watch; what year was it made, does it have a inhouse kaliber (I believe the early JLC chronos didn't have in house kalibers). What size is it (looks even smaller than 38mm). Is there only a gold version made. Please let us know what go got.

About the first Master Chronograph
Hello,
The model shown on the picture existed in both pink gold or steel, in silver dial or black dial. It measures 33 mm (excluding crown).
This chronograph includes a meca-quartz movement caliber 63x (630, 631,..). The movement cal 630 was born in 1987. It equipped some JLC Heraion, then Kyros chronograph and Odysseus. This movement also equipped some other brands such as IWC (a titanium Porsche chrono , one meca-Quartz Flieger chronograph for instance) or others.
Here is an article on meca-quartz movement(s):

This movement is still in the JLC ladies range in the Master Compressor Chronograph Lady.
Best regards,
Berny

Thanks for the info Berny
33 mm probably means it doesn't run on AA batteries ;-)
