Catalogue Note
Accompanied by the Guarantee Certificate, instruction manual, travel pouch, original display case, and magnifying glass.
The Jaeger-LeCoultre Duometre a Spherotourbillon is the latest innovative tourbillon complication from the company. The caliber 382 combines a newly developed dual-axis tourbillon with a flyback seconds feature. This allows the wearer to precisely set the time to the second, and by running on a dual-train system does not affect the beat of the escapement. The German nickel silver movement is housed in a large 42 mm pink gold case which is aesthetically pleasing in proportions and layout.
