Jaeger-LeCoultre

Does anyone know how to change the battery?

You need to open the watch, as for a mechanical one.

JLC has the battery, and it is recommended to let JLC do the job.

Best,

Are there any illustrations showing the procedure?

I am aware that it is preferable for JLC to do this, but it appears to be a 6-8 week process, only done in Switzerland from what I have been told thus far. 

I can't imagine it was built in such a manner to require that only the factory can do this.

Thanks,

Whit

But I will ask to my contact at the Manufacture if there is no better solution.

Best,

Nicolas

   

(Sorry: couldn't resist!).

pplater.

and I thought about telling my friend just that.
