First debuting in 1992, the Jaeger LeCoultre Master collection is a vintage-inspired family of timepieces rooted to the 1950s aesthetic of old with elegant dials, refined constructions and brilliantly executed movements – all benchmarks of JLC’s talents as a watchmaker. Offered here, we have the Master Geographic, an offering from within that Master collection that includes a world-time function that gives plenty of utility to its wearer. Boasting a 38mm stainless steel case and a silver dial with recessed subdials for its power reserve indicator, its pointer date and its second time zone and AM/PM indicator that both correspond to the city highlighted in the aperture at 6 o'clock, the Master Geographic showcases JLC’s dedication to finely finishing their timepieces from the inside out. Powered by the automatic cal. 929/3 movement that is encased behind a medallion-capped solid caseback, the Master Geographic reinforces the idea that JLC are the “Watchmaker’s watchmaker” with its exquisite attention to detail and stunning good looks.

A classically-inspired watch that remains understated on the wrist yet technically and aesthetically impressive, the Master Geographic is a horological masterclass as it perfectly infuses heritage-inspired design with high-level modern watchmaking.
