- Object Identity and Auction Categorisation
- Catalogued under lot 828 as part of the property of an Asian collector, this timepiece is designated by Bonhams as a Jaeger-LeCoultre model from the Calibre 101 Collection under reference 282.3.70. The auction heading associates the piece with an approximate dating of circa 1960 and describes it as a white gold square-cut diamond-set bracelet watch. While catalogued under the Calibre 101 designation, the available source text excerpt provides minimal narrative, restricting core attribution details to the cataloguing headers and title.
- Case Construction and Bracelet Configuration
- The timepiece is set within an elongated geometric frame of white metal, catalogued by the auctioneer as white gold. Square-cut diamonds are mounted across the case frame and extended bracket ends. The articulated bracelet features five rows of square-cut diamonds set in individual geometric mounts extending from the watch head.
