The Master Ultra-Thin "Squelette" means skeleton in French, and is a true showcase of Jaeger-LeCoultre's capabilities when it comes to skeletonising artistry. The ultra thin calibre 849 is fully open worked to allow more light to pass through, exhibiting its Greek-inspired engravings and intricate anatomy.
Limited to 75 pieces only, the present example is the first out of the entire production.
