Hello, One of my hobbies is watch collecting and repair. I was not so long ago given a jaeger lecoultre cal 449, it used to be my grandads but since he's passed away I thought I would try asking here if anyone could suggest a production date. The watch appears to be a cal 449 - looking elsewhere on this site, but other than that I know little about it. The dial has a military look, with orange luminous hands and numbers. The dial is two tone, with the outside and sub-seconds being a slightly different colour (both pale), Marked; "JAEGER-LECOULTRE" and "SWISS". The case is crome plated with a steel back which reads on the inside; "ACIER INOXYDABLE" "LECOULTRECo SWISS" "pour deboiter" "visser les clefs" "et" "tourner le mouvement" and on the outside; "B" "340365" The movement has the number "408992" Thankyou J Grainger | ||
