Released in 2007, the Master Grande Tradition à Répétition Minutes showcases the very best technology from Jaeger LeCoultre. Its skeletonised dial exposes an innovative mechanical marvel, namely the caliber 947. This two-week power reserve movement innovatively blends in with the pink gold case and its large sapphire crystals. The minute repeating hammers are indeed crafted from a confidential and proprietary material and feature a square cross-section, leading to a crisp and powerful sound.
The present example, bearing the limited edition number 002 was among the first examples out of only 175 to leave the Manufacture. This collectible timepiece is offered with its original Certificate dated February 25, 2008 and its full suite of accessories, including an elegant loupe, user manual and a booklet in addition to the wooden presentation case and its outer packaging.
