The watch collecting community has waited a long time for a comprehensive guide to Jaeger-LeCoultre watches. Here it is. Jaeger-LeCoultre: A Guide for the Collector covers over 140 vintage timepieces in exhaustive detail. As one reviewer remarks, this book is the gold standard for how books on watch manufacturers should be organized, written and illustrated. Movement calibers, case references, production figures, and repair notes are provided as well as part list and numerous other references. The chapters are organized generally by watch type starting with Early Rectangular Watches, and continuing through Calendars, Chronographs, and Military Watches. The Memovox has its own chapter, as do Wind Indicators and Chronometers. There is also a chapter dedicated to Notable U.S. Market Watches, in particular, the Galaxy and the Quartermaster.
