Here is one of the novelties of the Jaeger-LeCoultrewhose launch took place at the recently concluded SIHH in Geneva: this is the Master Grande Tradition Tourbillon à Quantième Perpétuel, the first tourbillon associated with a perpetual calendar. Available with a case in platinum, pink gold or yellow gold (the latter in a limited series of 300 pieces and equipped with a silicon escapement), the new model is powered by a Jaeger-LeCoultre calibre 987 self-winding mechanical movement, entirely hand-built, assembled and decorated. The architecture of the dial is unusual: it is divided into an upper part, displaying the hours, minutes and perpetual calendar, and a lower part, the slight difference in height of which acts as a housing and frame for the tourbillon.
