Age is about 1930-33. What is the case made of? Steel? | ||

Hi Zaf looks like stainless steel It works well but the dial is not in good condition as you can see the strap isn't original thanks Joe | ||

In the 4th picture the case is clearly stamped "acier inoxid".... stainless steel. Greg | ||

OK, so what you have a steel Uniplan, Lisica S.A. movement (these movements where also used in the Reverso). LeCoultre used these during the period of 1930-1933 when they did not have a suitable rectangular movement that would fit the Reverso. They also used them in the Uniplan, basically a Reverso except that the case did not flip over. They're not all that common, but they're not all that in demand either. I'd estimate value at about $600-800. |
