Adding to its collector rarity, the Galaxy is the only watch in the world signed outwardly by both LeCoultre and Vacheron & Constantin (Vacheron & Constantin and Jeager-LeCoultre shared the same distributorship in the U.S.).
We are pleased to offer this Galaxy in beautiful restored condition with all of its original parts. We invested over nine months in its restoration.
Its case presents beautifully on the wrist. It has one indention in the back and shows only light signs of previously having been polished. Its dial has been expertly restored by one of the leading experts in North America. Its movement is very clean and keeping very accurate time.
Our Master Watchmaker has fully serviced the watch which consists of fully disassembling the movement, carefully inspecting each part, replacing any overly worn movement components with Jaeger-LeCoultre replacements, reassembling and lubricating the movement, and extensive timing testing and regulation (a $595 value).
We have also installed a new mineral glass crystal to give a clear view of the dial to the very edges.
For the finishing touch we have equipped it with a brand new crocodile strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
