I recently had the fortune to se some of Karsh's terrific portraits. The Picasso portrait shows Picasso wearing some good looking watch and I was wondering if anybody could help identifying the watch.

The portrait:

The watch

Thanks

 

JLC triple calendar, according to Hodinkee: https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/ten-watches-were-still-looking-for

 

Terrific! Thanks so much. Another watch to hit down.

 

Hey, I'm getting better at watches! I knew that one before scrolling down to the Best and the Brightest of OF giving the answer!

 

Same. That logo is unique

 

Picasso had good taste!

 

He had indeed.

 

It would be hard to tell, when you can,t take your eyes off the vase. Beautiful.

 

He had good taste all around as I recall.

 

Wow. Great.
Would you happen to know the reference number?
Thanks

 

Don't think it has one, but I believe it's a caliber 494. Vacheron used these JLC ebauche as well for their TDMs.

 

Terrific. Thanks so much for all your help.

 

Forgive the thread-resurrection, but I came across some fascinating follow-up:
