1950s Jaeger-Lecoultre Bumper Ref. E329 in 18kt rose gold

Established in 1833 by Antoine LeCoultre in the Swiss Vallée de Joux, Jaeger-LeCoultre has been at the forefront of horological innovation. Known as the “watchmaker’s watchmaker,” it has developed some of the most intricate and complicated movements in history, including the Reverso in 1931, a timepiece with a reversible case originally designed for polo players. Jaeger-LeCoultre has also introduced groundbreaking innovations like the Futurematic and Geophysic collections. The brand is renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship, creating not only technically advanced movements but also dials and cases of unparalleled beauty. Jaeger-LeCoultre continues to be a leader in haute horlogerie, combining technical expertise with artistic vision.

This model was released in 1957 under the reference E329. It is known for its round shape, clean dial and overall, its black and white roulette date disc. The dial is clean and minimalist, with subtle hour markers and finely detailed hands, giving it a timeless, refined look. The case is in 18 karat rose gold, for an additional touch of warmth.

Powered by an automatic P813 bumper caliber, the E329 offers reliable precision and showcases Jaeger-LeCoultre’s dedication to mechanical excellence. Its simplicity and charm make it a desirable choice for collectors who appreciate vintage elegance in watchmaking.
