The ladies Le Coultre watch that I have is stamped A.LECOULTRE - am I understanding correctly that this watch is not valuable because it does not read Jaeger-LeCoultre? | ||

LeCoultre usually are less valuable (with exceptions) than Jaeger-LeCoultre. But A. LeCoultre for sure are less valuable than LeCoultre since these are not confirmed to be connected with (Jaeger-)LeCoultre. | ||

Thank You. Would the E.Blancpain stamp have any bearing on the value? | ||

No, it is just an interesting fact from a historic point of view and gives some space for speculations. | ||

Blancpain was actually the maker of these 'A. LeCoultre' movements. Blancpain, from the 1920s-1940s was probably one of the most prolific manufacturers of ladies' watches in the world. They produced ebauch�s (raw movements) for many manufacturers. Ilja is correct that these dual-signed A. LeCoultre/Blancpain watches have very low values. Greg |
