Yes real, except the dial hand hands have been restored in a fairly obvious manner. |

Thanks! I saw it on ebay and its title is very similar to one fake LeCoultre posted on this forum, i.e. "JAEGER CHRONOGRAPH THREE REGISTERS S/S VERY RARE,MINT" On another topic, what is more valuable or better quality, an old Jaeger or an old LeCoultre? |

That topic has been discussed many times before, so you'd need to browse the forum. Quickly, the perception is that Jaeger/Jaeger-LeCoultre is better than LeCoultre. It's true in some cases, but in many others the watches are the same. |
