Period
Mid Century
This vintage mid-century ladies' wristwatch is a collaborative piece created by Jaeger-LeCoultre for the retailer Garrard. It features a petite, round yellow gold case measuring 16 mm in diameter, 20 mm from lug tip to lug tip, and 6 mm in thickness.
The watch is distinguished by its unique backwind movement mechanism, an aesthetic choice that allows for a minimalist, crown-free appearance on the case sides. The watch is constructed entirely from 9k gold, including the matching integrated bracelet, which provides a total weight of 28 grams and fits a wrist size of approximately 6 to 6.25 inches. The dial is signed "Swiss Made," "Jaeger-LeCoultre," and "Garrard," featuring applied hour markers and a "12" and "6" numeral configuration.
The movement is inscribed with the manufacturer's name, "Suisse," "Swiss," and a unique serial number, 1374175. The internal case back carries the marking "DTE 9.375," denoting the gold fineness. The watch is described as being in great condition with minimal signs of age-related toning or wear.
