Good day, My uncle has recently handed me a vintage JLC. I believe it's from the 40s or 50s as it's a 481 calibre but I can't find the serial number on the movement. Case Number: 299459 Attached are the pictures taken. Any help in IDing would be appreciated, thanks! Henry   |

It's an American market LeCoultre power wind, mid to early 1950s, caliber 481. |

Hi Zaf, Is it possible to estimate how much the watch is worth? I supposed the dial is untouched. Thanks in advance. Henry |

The watches dates to 1949-1950. Value, ballpark, around $550-600. |
