Agree👍 @Tony C. The dial is very glossy and hard to take pictures of. Here is another shot.

There's so much radium in this thread that it's going to start growing a prehensile tail if we're not careful.

Silver lining will be roadkill watches to collect everywhere.

Was lucky enough to secure @ConElPueblo's LeCoultre 1946 Cal 476, 33.5 mm. Beautiful watch that I won't be letting go anytime soon...Shot using a Tamron 90 mm F 1:1.8 macro lens

This JLC is only 31 mm but might be a special one. These small watches produced in 1942-43 are the only Jaegers with matching case back and movement serial numbers, as on mine. The cal nr 463 should also be stamped on the bridge if it is to be counted among what might have been a special German order...some call this Luftwaffe Jaeger and military. I do not, I just say isnt it nice, both inside and outside? Sorry for the lecture here are some pics
