Calendar
Born in the early 1940s, the Triple Calendar by Jaeger-LeCoultre is a classic horological complication, created in response to a demand for watches with a timeless design, appreciated by the men of the world, yet equipped with useful functions. As one of the first complications specifically designed for a series-produced wristwatch, it has left an indelible imprint on the history of the Manufacture, but also on the history of watchmaking as a whole.
Equipped with the manual-winding Jaeger-LeCoultre Calibre 494 with calendar and moon phase indications, the watch is fitted on a new dark brown calfskin leather strap.
