An outstanding example of mid-century Swiss watchmaking, this Jaeger‑LeCoultre Ref. 2953 embodies the purity and elegance of 1950s Jaeger-LeCoultre design. Produced in 1957 and powered by the highly respected in-house Caliber P478/C, this reference is prized by collectors for its refined proportions, mechanical integrity, and understated luxury.

The watch is presented in excellent vintage condition and appears never polished, retaining crisp case lines and original character. The 14k (0.585) yellow gold case, a generous 35 mm in diameter (large for the era), is paired with a beautiful cream dial featuring applied yellow gold hour markers, applied Arabic numerals at 3, 6, 9, and 12, and elegant gold dauphine hands. The dial is in very good condition with only light, attractive patina, adding warmth and authenticity. The original unsigned yellow gold crown, correct for the year and reference, further confirms the watch’s originality.

This watch was fully serviced by our in-house certified watchmaker on 12.12.2025 and is offered with its original box, a New Old Stock original LeCoultre leather strap, and an original gold-plated LeCoultre buckle, suitable for wrists up to 19 cm. Also included are the PW Service Card (12.12.2025) and PW Certificate of Authenticity.

A superb opportunity to acquire a truly authentic, mechanically distinguished, and beautifully preserved vintage Jaeger-LeCoultre—timeless, elegant, and increasingly difficult to find in this condition.
