Additional Information
The first Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control with an integrated Tourbillon. Features brand new enlarged balance design. Tourbillon cage in T5 Titanium with a mass of 0.28 grams - necessary for the rapid eight-times-per-second tourbillon oscillation. (The tourbillon houses the different elements of the escapement in a mobile cage and increases the operational accuracy of the watch by compensating for errors of rate in vertical positions.) Home time dial in Sunburst (Rayonnant) Guilloche. The hour hand is adjusted in quick-set 1 hour increments in either direction (via a slight rotation of the crown), and synchronized with home time.
The gilded hands are an elegant Alpha-shape. The monobloc rotor with perforation and relief engraving is in 22k Rose Gold. The central perforation allows the wearer to view the tourbillon even when the rotor is positioned directly over it.
About Jaeger-LeCoultre
Since 1833, when the inventive Charles Antoine LeCoultre established this venerable watchmaker, it has produced some of the most outstanding and innovative timepieces. It wasn't until 1931, however, that the Jaeger-LeCoultre brand rose to international fame. It was then that the Reverso - an ingenious reversible watch - was unveiled to the public.

Two Year Warranty
We sell luxury timepieces at considerably lower prices than the manufacturers list price. Gemnation is not
an Authorized Jaeger-LeCoultre Watch Dealer and is not affiliated with Jaeger-LeCoultre. Authorized dealers are not permitted
to discount or sell watches on the Internet. For this reason, we choose not to be authorized watch dealers
for many of the brands that we sell.
Since we are not authorized dealers for many of the watch manufacturers, we may be unable to ship the original
watch manufacturers warranty. In all cases, however, we provide a Two Year Gemnation Warranty (active from the
date of purchase).
Gemnation utilizes a full-time Swiss-trained watchmaker who is licensed and trained to repair every brand and
model of watch that we sell. If we can supply the original warranty we provide this information in the individual
watch description.
