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

Reminds me of the blair witch project logo.

 

The Blair Watch Project

 

Looks like my wife laying down when she has a hot flash. Starfish!

 

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...

 

Laughed out loud at this!

 

Now my girlfriend thinks it's cursed, and wants it out of the house.

 

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.

 

Ulack... You have to stop this hot flash thing...

 

You know better!
