Design

Case and Dial
The Jaeger-LeCoultre Etrier features a rectangular stainless steel case measuring 23x28mm. The case design is defined by its prominent, loop-shaped lugs that extend from the top and bottom of the housing, providing a distinct silhouette. A notable construction detail is the placement of the winding crown, which is situated at the six o'clock position rather than the customary side placement. The watch presents a silver-toned dial adorned with painted black Roman numerals for the hour markers. The time is displayed via two black, baton-style hands for the hours and minutes. The dial is clean and minimalist in its layout, excluding a second hand. The 'Swiss Made' designation is printed at the lower portion of the dial, near the base of the six o'clock marker.

Identification and Context
The watch is identified by the reference number 9041.42. The serial number provided for this specific example is 138xxxx, which the source dates to the 1970s. The model is referred to as the 'Etrier' and is noted for its association with extensive marketing by Hermes during its period of circulation. The watch comes with a leather watch pouch as part of the offering.
Movement and Mechanical Details
Internally, the watch is powered by the Jaeger-LeCoultre calibre 812/2 manual wind movement. This movement is a mechanical caliber engineered for a hand-wound watch. The vendor reports that the movement has been subject to inspection and regulation by their watchmaker to ensure operational readiness. The watch includes a leather strap, which is secured by an original Jaeger-LeCoultre signed buckle. This component is consistent with the branding present on the dial, ensuring uniformity in the assembly of the timepiece.
