Master Control 1000 Hours

An attractive wristwatch with perpetual calendar and moon phase

Sold

This fine 18 K pink gold classic timepiece is powered by an automatic movement. The watch features subdials for date, month and day of the week in English as well as a cutout for the phase of the moon. A small window in the month display shows the current year. A "danger zone" display is positioned above the hands. A red marker from approx. 9 to 4 o’clock indicates the time span when the pusher for changing the day must not be used.
Master Control 1000 Hours - a pioneer in watchmaking, Jaeger-Le Coultre set new benchmarks in reliability. Upon completion, every single one of their watches must pass the severe master control test programme, where the watches undergo the most demanding testing for a 1000 hours. The master control test is superior to the official chronometer test, which only tests the movement. Jaeger-Le Coultre tests the finished watch in its case and with hands.
