Hi Zaf / Ilja and others.

I received the triple date I mentioned last week, and its condition is just stunning.

It looks like the attached picture except for the dial which is uniform in colour and is the usual beige instead of pink here.
But the watch is Pink Gold, not yellow.

My surprise was the inscription on the back.
It says 19k (0,800)

I never heard about 19k JLCs before.
I know that they did 9k for UK (where this watch comes from), but I am curious about this 19k one.
My research on similar models only pointed to 18k models (or 14k + Steel back).

Ever heard about it or seen one before ?

I'll definitely try to take pictures of mine, but the digital cam is out of order for now....

Clavi

Sounds like a Frencn market case, does it have Eagle Hallmarks?

Hi Clavi!

Everything is possible to boot with. Never heard of a 19k JLC before. Perhaps it was made for a special market like an Arab country...
The hallmarks at least shall tell where the case was produced. - Can you describe them?

Some French market cases are 0.800 believe it or not. That is why I asked if it has Eagle head Hallmarks.
