I started a thread earlier about a Vulcan/LeJour chronograph I purchased today that confused the hell out of me, but everyone seems just as confused as I am, since no one replied.

One thing specifically that has me puzzled is this logo above Vulcain on the dial.

Does anyone recognize this logo? It is nothing I have ever seen on a Vulcain dial before. I speculate it maybe the logo for " La Forge " but I'm not certain.

I with you on the La Forge brand. It seems La Forge (or Laforge) was an in house label of Macys.

So your Vulcain with the la Forge mark is a little bit like an Omega with Meister or Turler markings.

Only my thoughts, not gospel.

Then again I just found a Lejour with that marking as well 😵‍💫

To me it has a bit of an NGO look about it... like "Save the Children" or "Medicin sans frontiers"

That's what I was thinking. In 2009 Harlequins wore an HIV awareness shirt with a similar logo

Not sure if I want to know more... I do understand what you mean (as I guess our spouces are about the same age) but that is really lost in translation - and I have always wanted to write - you dirty, dirty old man, to you... 😉

Found some photos on google of a couple of LeJour watches with that little blair witch project looking logo. Could this be LeJour's logo?

This is driving me nuts! Lejour is a french watch company yet Vulcain is Swiss, but dial is marked France? What a mystery !

I have a side business of disposing safely of cursed watches. I normally charge quite a bit for this service but, for a fellow OF member, I'll take care of your problem watch for you as a favor. I'll send you a PM with my shipping address and specific instructions on how to nullify the curse for shipping.

It's a "hot flash" logo dude.

......oh, alright. The Blair Witch Project joke was pretty damn funny.

... I wish I had not seen it. Some things can not be "unseen" and I will loose sleep over that one.

You know better!
