Rather than a small aperture, the date is displayed via a peripheral disc: a full circle of numerals in blue, printed around the perimeter of the dial, advanced by a dedicated pusher integrated into the crown. The result is a date display that doesn't interrupt the dial's symmetry in any way: no window, no cut-out, simply a complete ring of numbers that the wearer advances manually as needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe execution here is exactly what one expects from Jaeger-LeCoultre at its best. A two-tone dial, a brushed outer field carrying the hour markers and the date ring, and a radially brushed inner zone where the gold dauphine hands do their work, creates a subtle depth without any unnecessary ornamentation. The applied gold indices, alternating between elongated markers at the cardinal points and shorter batons elsewhere, complete a dial of considerable refinement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis complication, while less celebrated than the instantaneous date mechanisms that followed, represents a genuinely thoughtful piece of mid-century engineering and is one that is increasingly rare to encounter today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis example presents in mint condition, the dial and case both showing as close to original factory state as a vintage JLC can reasonably achieve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA quietly sophisticated complication, beautifully preserved.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sabiwatches","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57946820903176,"sku":null,"price":4900.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0947\/3477\/8632\/files\/D115_JLC_Disc.jpg?v=1781167244","url":"https:\/\/sabiwatches.com\/products\/jaeger-lecoultre-triple-calendar-calendrier-a-disques","provider":"Sabiwatches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
