This is an approx Swiss made 1936 Jaeger ( i.e not Jaeger le Coutre) military chronograph which I believe was made by Edmund Jaeger for the British army. It belonged to my father who was a major in the Royal tank Regiment. It keeps perfect time after 77 years
Very Nice, thanks for sharing, I know nothing about these, sorry, but a very unique piece, maybe some of the others will fill you in on this piece.
VERY BEAUTIFUL WATCH:)

Hi Dave
Many thanks. This watch carries the Jaeger logo with similar underlining as with Jaeger le Coutre watches. This watch is very similar to the Le Coutre Caliber 285-
does that help? Brian
Brian,
I do not know anything about these watches. I was just looking through my books and trying to match up the case and dial. The one I noted is the closest I could find, with the difference being, the one in the book has a roman numeral XII & VI.
