Jaeger LeCoultre developed a real expertise in crafting alarm wristwatches since the unveiling of reference 3150 in 1950. The reference 3151 followed suit with a production spanning from 1952 to 1956. 
The present 18ct yellow gold example from 1955 is wonderfully preserved with sharp edges, strong lugs and deep hallmarks. This sophisticated reference furthermore boasts a powerful alarm, making it a highly functional daily wearer.
