" In 2005, Jaeger-LeCoultre introduced the innovative Master Minute Repeater collection which boasted a newly developed crystal gong and an impressive power reserve of 15 days.
The spring torque is displayed on a special indicator, guaranteeing optimal accuracy as long as the hand remains in the indicator’s safety zone. The dial is semi-skeletonized and reveals part of the movement, which immediately stands out as the main player in a visual and acoustical delight. The product of a lengthy research process, its crystal gong, made of a material that remains a trade secret, represents a major innovation in sound purity and clarity.
The present example is crafted from titanium, allowing for the watch to feel extremely light on the wrist, despite its large 44 mm case. The watch is retained in attractive condition and presented with its blank warranty certificate, accessories and presentation case.
