Re: JLC Reverso questions

On modern pieces, and by modern, I mean after 1985 or so, I will not have much information for you. So if you're asking about 2006 type watches, the factory will be your only source for archival info like production dates and numbers, etc. No whether or not they will give to you or answer your inqui...

Re: JLC Unusual Malachite Dial (2nd Posting with Photos)

Guessing, the year is 1976-1978. Value, around that of the gold + a $100-200. I can't tell for sure what the caliber is, it should be so stamped on the movement, usually under the balance wheel. I'm guessing it's the evolution of caliber 480.

Re: Help with ID Bovet & Fol Gold

I don't think it will be an expensive watch, i.e. not more than the value of the case. 13 "rubis" movements are usually not high grade.

Re: JLC Unusual Malachite Dial

Sorry I hadn't seen that you tried posting a new topic. Let's try that again if you'd like. There are no longer any image size restrictions.

Re: Date and Name of Vintage Jaeger-LeCoultre

If the dial is in poor condition, as it appears to be, probably around $250.

Re: Montauk Watch

Your watch sounds like a generic Swiss watch, with a generic brand name. There are 100s of such names, so the value will be dependent on the case metal and the maker of the movement.

But....what does this have to do with Jaeger-LeCoultre?
