Jaeger Chronograph, reference 163, circa 1960s, powered by manual-wind Calibre 839H, in a 35 mm stainless steel case with a long leather strap and white dial, in very good condition with light signs of wear.
Description from the seller
Offered is a beautiful vintage Jaeger chronograph from approximately the 1960s, powered by the Calibre 839H manual-wind movement.
Before the global consolidation under Jaeger-LeCoultre branding, watches were often signed simply “Jaeger,” making these mid-century pieces particularly attractive to collectors.
The watch features a classic 35 mm stainless steel case (excluding crown), a very balanced and wearable size for a vintage chronograph.
⸻
Condition
Considering its age (around 60+ years), the watch is in very good vintage condition.
• Case: Very good condition with honest signs of wear consistent with age
• Dial: Well preserved with attractive vintage character
• Movement: Calibre 839H in good condition, running well
• Chronograph: Functions correctly
• Strap & buckle: Not original
The watch is fully functional and keeps time as expected for a vintage mechanical chronograph.
