Jaeger-LeCoultre dresswatch ‘Teardrop’

Some watches are just plain good looking. And this is such a watch by Jaeger-LeCoultre.

This is clearly a child of the “Calatrava” design school, with its minimalist aesthetic and sub-seconds layout. The cream-colored dial is off-set by rose gold plated numerals and hands, creating a warm overall look. With its wide teardrop lugs, it wears quite large for its modest diameter, meaning it is suitable for both the thinner and the thicker wrist.

Powered by a hand-wound movement, this is a solid watch that brings you back to the post-war era. A watch you can proudly wear with both casual and business attire.
