1950s Jaeger-Lecoultre Powermatic for the French market

The Powermatic is a classic produced by Jaeger-Lecoultre in the 40s and 50s. This one features a very well preserved dial with Breguet numerals and the “Fabriqué en Suisse” mention, indicating it was produced for the French market, coupled with a set of gold and blued steel hands. The disc at 12' displays the remaining working time in hours. Its configuration, along with its exceptional condition makes it a highly collectible timepiece.

The bumper 481 movement is running perfectly, following a complete service. When worn, the bumper sensation will remain you why collectors love this kind of mechanism.
