Jaeger-LeCoultre is famed for the Reverso, but that piece’s origins are, believe it or not, as a tool watch — not a dress watch. 

However, the firm did produce myriad dedicated dress watches throughout the years, perhaps none more elegant than those from the middle of the last century. A plethora of case and dial designs means that a vintage JLC dress piece is reasonably easy to come by, but finding a more unique configuration in great condition remains challenging.

The particular Jaeger-LeCoultre dress watch we have here couldn't be cooler. It features an absolutely beautiful, 31mm solid 18k yellow gold case with a textured finishing and integrated woven bracelet with matching finishing, an onyx cabochon crown, a deep, glossy black lacquer dial with a yellow gold 'dauphine' handset, and a manual winding movement within.

Absolutely fantastic.

With its eye-catching design, fascinating dial, and awesome bracelet, this is a standout timepiece appropriate for virtually any wrist, and a great opportunity to get into a gold watch without losing your shirt!
