I have inherited a stainless steel ladies Jaeger_LeCoultre. Circe 1920, I think. Does anyone know more about this watch?

1) It isn't a lady's watch
2) You're off on the date by over 2 decades.

You have a mid-1940s men's military-style watch on a bonklip-style bracelet. I believe the watch is powered by a caliber 479 movement, but Zaf and others follow this model more closely and will likely chime in.

Agreed, but movement is likely a 449 or 469.

The 479 as far as I know is only found in the JLC British military W.W.W.

Oh, and your watch has a chrome plated top.
