Jaeger LeCoultre Master Compressor 36mm 148.8.60; Automatic Watch

Description

The Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Compressor is a watch that impressively combines technology, sportiness, and refinement. This compact 36mm model from 2006, with reference number Ref. 148.8.60, belongs to the popular Master Compressor collection and is known for its robust appearance, innovative crown construction, and high-quality manufacture movement.

The distinctive Compressor crown with a locking system not only gives the watch a distinctive appearance but also provides extra usability and excellent water resistance. The design is sporty yet stylish enough to shine in formal occasions as well. Notably, it is in good condition, but there is a barely visible circular scratch in the center of the dial where the hand has likely left a 'trail'. Everything has been restored, but this slight imperfection is still visible at a certain angle.

Inside, you will find the renowned Jaeger-LeCoultre Calibre 899 automatic manufacture movement with date function. This movement has been considered one of Jaeger-LeCoultre’s most reliable and refined calibers for years. Furthermore, it carries the prestigious 1000 Hours Control certification, which means that not only the movement but the entire watch is rigorously tested for accuracy, reliability, and durability over 1,000 hours—a quality control process that few watch brands conduct at this level.

The movement runs excellently and accurately, underscoring Jaeger-LeCoultre’s reputation as one of the most respected manufacturers in the Swiss watch world.

The new high-quality leather strap (Rios) is beautifully finished and feels fantastic. This premium strap features the JLC folding clasp and fits wrists up to approximately 19cm. Alternative types/colors/brands of straps can be mounted upon request.

This watch comes complete with a luxury box, the original Jaeger-LeCoultre papers and manual shown, a worn crocodile leather strap, and our own warranty report providing 1 year warranty.

A beautiful choice for enthusiasts looking for a sporty luxury watch with a high-quality manufacture movement and a rich watch history. As always, this is a unique pre-owned piece, with only one available.
