    Jaeger LeCoultre military-style watch, LeCoultre caliber P 478, vintage 1940's
    Very good overall vintage condition. Fully serviced in August 2014. The remainder of the one-year warranty is fully transferable and buyer will receive the service warranty certificate.

    Dial: Ivory dial with a very pleasing vintage patina. Signed Jaeger LeCoultre, railroad track chapter ring, arabic numerals, original finish. Amazing blued-steel sword hands and center seconds in excellent condition - so many of these hands have been stained or lost their lume material.

    Case: Very good nickel-plated case with wear. Signed stainless steel snap caseback. Correct unsigned crown. Please see large detailed pictures. Approximately 33-34mm in diameter/40mm lug-to-lug, with great vintage wrist presence.

    Movement: Signed LeCoultre Company, caliber P478, manual wind. Excellent condition, and fully serviced 8/2014.

    Priced at US$ 635. Payment via PayPal only. Fees and USPS shipping included for US buyers. International buyers pay actual shipping costs over US$20. Includes a free 16mm perlon strap in brown khaki. Search "jaeger lecoultre military style" in ebay advanced search to see similar current and sold examples in inferior condition, not working, unserviced, or wildly overpriced.

    No returns. Please review the pictures carefully as they are an important and integral part of the description. Glad to answer any questions you may have - just shoot me a PM.

    SOLD in a flash, guess I should have priced it higher. ;)

    On the plus side, I have netted several new OF members. Maybe they'll stick around.

    Thanks buyer and OF!

    I will miss it, but two "new" JLC's incoming will assuage the sting. :D
