Popular vintage VC in tonneau shaped case made of 18K yellow gold and housing the most relevant auto-caliber of all time: the VC1121, which is the date version of the base caliber 1120. This legend was developed by Jaeger-LeCoultre end of 1960s and made the first Patek Nautilus move as well as AP Royal Oaks, Patek Jumbo Ellipses or the legendary VC 222 -- so nearly everything relevant in horological history of the second half of 20th century.
The watch is unpolished and the dial has some spots, visible when magnified. But overall the watch is in good condition and the movement is running fine after our cleaning and adjusting.
