I am considering purchase of this JLC and I would really appreciate any feed back or opinions. I have some doubts about this watch. First the case is not signed (but dial, crown and movement is signed). Is the dial /hand combination look alright. If the watch look alright, what is the estimated value? The seller claims, it was recently serviced! Thanks a lot!

I would run away. VXN + LeCoultre + JLC dial + no case signature = put-together. |

Well little bit of digging revealed some details about that import code. Since, lecoultre imported to US in early fifties sometimes came with non JLC case, I assume the case might be original to the watch. Thanks again. |

The case is not original to the watch. A USA market case will be clearly marked so from that era. |
