Re: Recommended Vintage JLC Movements
The movement found in the vintage Geopysic (P478/BWSBr) and the Mark 11 (488 Sbr) are probably the best.

Re: Futurematic dial styles
Yes with a non-lume model or it has fallen off. On the top example, you can still see signs of the lume. They were either dipped in lume at their tips or had conventionally filled dauphine hands.

Re: Club Day Date
I'll need a movement photo, but these are typically NOT in-house movements. The serious JLC collectors do not regard them that highly because of that.

Yes, but are correct. When they show luminous material on the dial, the hands are also supposed to be luminous.

Re: Memovox E875 - acrylic glass replacement
You will not find an OEM crystal. No point in even asking around. SO.... whether you send it JLC for whatever they're installing these days, the service will cost you at least 2000 Euros.

Would be interesting to see what is marked on the insides of the case back and how the movement is branded. It is unusual to have Swiss hallmarks on the outside. Not all US-marked cases were ...

Re: Jaeger Lecoultre cal 145 open face pocket
