I found a LeCoultre Automatic in a family jewelry box. I sent it to the factory to be serviced and they supplied this information: Model 2517 Case number 4079640 (Probably US model) Movement Calibre 825 Movement number 1431336 (for export to the US) Movement made in 1959 I will try to attach photo. I am hoping to get a sense of its value. Thanks for any help.  | ||

Oh, and the bezel is 10K gold filled. | ||

I just noticed that there is a forum specifically devoted to watch values. Should I post inquiries, like this over there, even they pertain to JLC? Thanks, CJ | ||

Probably worth around $700-1000. If it's really mint with JLC papers, then maybe a top end of $1400 (probably less than what they charged you to service it). I'd remove that bracelet if I were you, they tend to damage the gold filled lugs. | ||
