I would to thanks Puristspro forum to let me know this stunning and extremely rare JLC timepiece.
The Jaeger LeCoultre Master Mariner Chronomètre ref.24002-42 . Only 1151 pcs produced during 1973/74. This is one of frist specimens even made (according to archive extract 1973).
The movement is the JLC caliber 906. Only 7000 pcs produced, most of them used by Vacheron Constantin for his Royal Chronomètre (cal.1096).
I love that blue dial and his NSA original JLC signed Bracelet.
I hope you enjoy.
Best regards.
Andrea

No Date

I also have a Jlc Chronometre calibre 906. The question is that my watch is a no date..... the mechanism is the proper calibre 906 and hasnt been modified do the no date face. The dile looks to be with the right wear for a 1970's watch, the only question ...

I thought that could be the case, but to have a redile with no date the mechanism would have to be modified.... and it seems that it was always a no date movement.

Neither have I... thats my dilema. When my watchmaker checked the movement out and said that it hadn't been altered, I got even more confused.
