Description

A refined expression of horological elegance is presented in the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Date Q1288420. The timepiece is housed in a silver-tone stainless steel case, by which a diameter of 40mm and a remarkably slim profile of 7.5mm are achieved. A fixed bezel in matching silver-tone stainless steel is fitted to the case.

The dial is adorned with a silvered sunray finish, upon which silver-tone dauphine-style hands are mounted. Index hour markers are arranged around the perimeter, while minute markers are positioned along the outer rim. A date display is discreetly integrated at the 6 o’clock position.

The watch is powered by the Jaeger-LeCoultre Calibre JLC 899/1 automatic movement. The mechanism is composed of 219 parts and set with 32 jewels. A frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour is maintained, by which a power reserve of approximately 38 hours is provided.

A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal is installed to protect the dial, while a transparent case back is fitted to reveal the movement. The case is complemented by a black alligator leather strap with a width of 20mm, which is secured by a double fold-over clasp.

Water resistance is ensured to 50 meters (165 feet). The timepiece is designated as Swiss Made, by which its exceptional quality and craftsmanship are certified.

Jaeger-LeCoultre – Bio

Jaeger-LeCoultre has been at the forefront of inventions throughout its history, right from the beginning in 1803, when the founder Antoine LeCoutre invented a machine to cut watch pinions from steel. The brand was established in 1833, and years later in 1937, a Paris-based watchmaker Edmond Jaeger joins LeCoutre to form Jaeger-LeCoutre. The duo continue to produce some astonishing movements, spread over 1300 calibers and counting.
Through the years, watchmakers such as Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet and Vacheron Constantin have used the company’s movements.
