Hi, Zaf, thanks a lot for the help. Yes, it is an American market watch! Just curious, when did LeCoultre start producing for American market? What is the difference or special of those productions?

Jaeger-LeCoultre Watches were called "LeCoultre" in the USA until 1976 or so with cases usually (not always) made in the USA.
