Hi all I do ask and ask and ask. But, I really need all the help and information I can get. I am seeking a vintage JLC to be a day to day watch. Also se other thread with a watch. I also did find these one, but with no information. Other than it is from the 50´s and working good. Some information? The seller also sad that the display at 12 is showing the power reserv, not the date. Thanks for looking Cheers Vegard_dino

I think you are correct. The watch is from the 1950's. The window is the power reserve. Stainless steel cases are generally Swiss made, but these are for the US market. That's a very nice looking watch! Take care, gatorcpa |

Hi Gatorcpa, thanks for information. Was the watch only a US model, or sold in Europe to? Tarmangani, thanks for the reply and information. Is it? I amnew, so I amnot so into prices, yet, and it is hard to find a good online dealer. But, now I know, so I need to seek around. Thanks Cheers Vegard_dino |

Tarmangani Thanks, got it! Well, some watchmakers, but no one selling anything interesting. Trying to find a dealer, who also have online catalog. Cheers Vegard_dino |
