Hello, I present myself, I'm a swall watches collector from France.I've only 10 Jaeger-Lecoultre on about 80 old wristwatches, like Omega suveran, longines, cal 11, Auricoste type 20 and so on, to have more details I'have a blog specified in my profile, but Its not the fact on the post. Recently I bought the a Bible by Zaf Basha (Thank you Zaf for this great book shipping so quickly)to help me identifying 3 of 4 JL bought 2 weeks ago, cause in the lot there was also a so nice 36mm steel 489/1 memovox serial n� 903xxx. So, here pictures of one, a 34mm steel case with two tone chocolate lacquered glossy dial, "jaeger-lecoultre, automatic" marking in relief, a caliber 476, serial n� on the movement 551xxx, steel clipped back. I would like to know, please, if its watch is common and its the value.I have looking for informations on the net but nothing !!    Thanks to you members of the forum Best regards and please to read you from France Stan | ||

Honestly, I have not seen the watch with a "chocolate" dial. Are you sure it's not just a faded black dial? | ||

Thanks for your answer. How much estimated you the value of this first JL automatic, 476, keeping time and running strong but with a non chocolate dial ;) ? | ||

Hi Zaf, I'registered to your "past price" but I did not see a similar watch to this one and others I had (future post) and prices are early ones. This JL is what colour to you and what is actual value ? Best regards | ||

To me the dial is black with fade. Hard to tell unless I see it in person. The value is likely to be around $600-800 though I have not had one recently so I can't be certain. |
