Vintage Jaeger-LeCoultre, Swiss Watch, Original Radium Dial, Completely Authentic from 1940's
Vintage Jaeger-LeCoultre watches are all about technical refinement and understated design — and this early 1940s piece is a textbook example of the brand’s utilitarian elegance during the wartime era.
This example brings all the charm of 1940s Swiss watchmaking: a compact 32 mm case, warm patinated dial with full Arabic numerals, and bold dauphine hands that add just the right amount of vintage presence. Inside beats a beautifully finished Jaeger-LeCoultre manual-wind movement, built with the same precision you'd expect from a brand that supplied movements to both Vacheron and Patek during this era.
