The reason: a few years ago Jaeger-leCoultre decided to auction this very nice watch for a good cause: the 1958 Geophysic Chronometer Model E168. I tried winning this auction, but it was online and in the last second I lost unfortunately. I can't stop thinking about it. Does anybody have more information about this watch? And any suggestions as to how I could try to purchase one would be greatly appreciated (I tried a few things, but no luck). What would be a reasonable price? Thanks for reading this!   Zaf Moderator Username: Zaf Post Number: 5220 Registered: 05-2003 Rating: N/A Votes: 0 (Vote!)

If the dial has issues, it can be 30-40% less.
