• Reverso (1931) — Reversible case created for polo players.
• Master Control (1992) — The epitome of classic haute horlogerie.
• Polaris (2018) — A sports collection, heir to the Memovox.

The pre-owned Jaeger-LeCoultre market

The pre-owned watch market has normalised since the 2022 peaks: steel sports references keep a premium, while gold and dress models currently offer the best entry points.

How we authenticate a Jaeger-LeCoultre piece

Every piece that joins Monogram Paris follows the same protocol in our Paris workshops: no catalogue photography, no supplier imagery, only shots of the actual item.

• Case and movement numbers recorded and cross-checked against the registers
• Dial, indexes and hands: printing, luminova and any relume documented
• Movement opened by a watchmaker: calibre, finishing, service parts
• Amplitude and instantaneous rate checked before listing
• Bracelet, deployant clasp and links inspected one by one

Care and storage

• Service recommended every 5 to 7 years depending on the calibre
• Water resistance test after every case opening
• Avoid magnetic fields (speakers, magnetic bags, tablets)
