Picked up this grail from GeorgeTheWatchGuy !!
George and I have been friends for several years and not only share a passion for watches, but our tastes are closely alligned. As sometimes happens when that's the case, we ended up doing a trade. My end of the deal is this beautiful Jacques Lemans JL 1-915 Valjoux 7751 automatic chronograph. This deal was great for me as I had yet to own a watch with this magnificent movement - the big brother to the V7750. It has an amazing feature set for an automatic movement including standard time, chronograph with twelve hour elapsed timer, thirty minute elapsed timer, sixty second elapsed timer, twenty four hour time indicator, big day and month, date indicator and phase of the moon complication. The styling of this watch is vintage/classic and this type of design will never go out of style. For me it will be a real go to for business wear. I frequently say that I can and do wear "smaller" watches and find this 40mm case to be great looking on my wrist. The fit and finish is waht you'd expecpt from Jacques Lemans and George has taken exceptional care of the watch with nothing but the signs of normal/gentle wear. I'm really stoked to own this beauty, and very happy to have gotten it from my good friend George. Enjoy the pics!
