For sale is a Swiss Made Jaeger-LeCoultre Ultra Thin Automatic men's watch with reference number 5000.21, which can be dated back to the 1960's. The watch features a hexagonal 18k yellow gold case with gold brushed dial. Black baton-style hands indicate the hours and minutes, and the absence of a seconds hand keeps the watch face clean and easy to read. Inside the watch we find a renowned Jaeger-LeCoultre caliber 900 automatic movement, which has been freshly serviced and is working perfectly. The use of this very thin movement allows the case to be just 5.9mm thick, making it a gorgeous low-profile dress watch. The crown is original and bears the JLC logo.
The example sold here has been worn throughout its life, but is still in good condition considering its age. You will find some marks on the case when closely examining the watch. The case is unpolished and therefore in original shape, and the sapphire crystal is still in great shape. The dial has developed a few minor stains around the outer edge, which is common for these vintage watches. Please study the pictures in this listing well: they show the watch in the condition that it is in, with no digital enhancements to make it look better than it is. We are sure that you like honesty, and so do we. Functionally, the watch has been serviced prior to sale and is working perfectly. It comes with a brand new black leather strap, ready to wear.
The watch comes without any paperwork or original box, but evidently we will provide a generic box to ship it to the buyer safe and sound. The item ships from Belgium and will be securely packaged and dispatched using the local postal service (BPost).
