Adding to its collector rarity, the Galaxy is the only watch in the world signed outwardly by both LeCoultre and Vacheron & Constantin (Vacheron & Constantin and Jeager-LeCoultre shared the same distributorship in the U.S.).
This Galaxy is in pleasing condition. Its dial is original and untouched. And its case is in very good condition. The only replacement part is the winding crown.
Our watchmaker has freshly cleaned and oiled the movement, which is quite pristine and keeping accurate time. When we acquired the watch it it still had its original crystal, which had a couple of scratches. We replaced the crystal with one the exact style of the original and mineral glass, like the original.
For the finishing touch we have installed a brand new crocodile strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
