Adding to its collector rarity, the Galaxy is the only watch in the world signed outwardly by both LeCoultre and Vacheron & Constantin (Vacheron & Constantin and Jeager-LeCoultre shared the same distributorship in the U.S.).
We are pleased to offer this Galaxy in beautiful restored condition. Its case presents in near mint condition - it presents as close to mint on the wrist. Its dial has been expertly restored by one of the leading experts in North America. Its movement is clean.
One of our watchmakers has disassembled it down to its last screw and cleaned and oiled it. It continues to run strong and true.
For the finishing touch we have installed a brand new Teju lizard strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
