This prestigious timepiece has a black dial featuring a detailed date display with pointer date, month and day of the week in German, as well as the moon phase. All indcations are displayed in separate registers. The two-digit year and a day/night display are shown in small windows. Consistent with the case the dial features steel arrow indexes and alpha hands and has a luminous coat to ensure easy readability even in bad light. As part of the Master Control 1000 Hours model range, the watch underwent the strict Master Control test program, which submitted it to 1,000 hours of hard testing. The master test is more demanding than the official chronometer test, which only tests the movement. Jaeger-LeCoultre, however, tests the finished watch, complete with hands. Case: very good, slightly worn. Dial: very good. Movm.: very good, capable of running, cleaning recommended.
