Jaeger-LeCoultre

Jaeger-LeCoultre debuts two new watches under the iconic Geophysic line, the Geophysic True Second and the Geophysic Universal Time.

The collection is inspired by a vintage chronometer the brand created for scientists at the North Pole in 1958, the International Geophysical Year.

The two models continue to reinterpret the classic piece in a modern way. The Geophysic True Second boasts of the true-second system, a sophisticated mechanism that visualizes the passing of every second, while the Geophysic Universal Time model highlights an exquisite world map on the dial, tailored for international travelers. Both come in steel and rose-gold cases.
