商品説明
This is a 1960s model of the Master Mariner from the prestigious manufacturer Jaeger-LeCoultre.
The case is a 34.3mm diameter round type, featuring a polished bezel and a screw-back case back.
The crown is an original Jaeger-LeCoultre part, featuring the JL logo.
The crystal and dial feature a classic domed design.
The tips of the minute and second hands are gently curved to harmonize with the domed crystal.
It is a simple and elegant design.
The black dial has a matte finish.
It features an applied 'JL' logo and JAEGER-LECOULTRE at the 12 o'clock position, with AUTOMATIC, Master Mariner, and SWISS MADE printed at the 6 o'clock position.
The baton indices have a slightly matte finish, providing a chic impression.
While many of Jaeger-LeCoultre's automatic movements from this era are bumper types (half-rotors), this model is equipped with the full-rotor automatic Cal. 883.
The rotor features a cut-out design of the Jaeger-LeCoultre JL mark, which is a signature feature of the movement's aesthetic.
It includes a manual winding function for added convenience.
The shock protection system utilizes a 'Flower Kif' setting, named for its flower-like shape.
The movement has a compact design for an automatic caliber, and the rotor spins smoothly.
Operation Instructions
How to pull the crown: Insert a fingernail between the case and the crown and pull out gently.
Pulling the crown too forcefully may cause it to come out. Please pull gently.
To prevent the crown stem from bending, please remove the watch from your wrist before operating.
Operating with care will reduce the strain on the crown.
Manual winding: Rotate upwards in the standard crown position.
Time setting: Pull out the crown and rotate downwards.
Date quick-set: With the crown pulled out, move the hands back and forth between '11 PM and 12 AM'.
1) Advance the hands until 12 midnight.
If the date changes, it is midnight. If it does not, it is 12 noon.
2) Once you have confirmed the date has changed, move the hands back to 11 PM.
This prepares the calendar to advance to the next day.
3) Advance the hands to 12 midnight.
Confirm that the date has advanced by one day.
Repeat steps 1) through 3) to advance the date one day at a time.
Please operate slowly to reduce the burden on the movement.
