Product Description
History
The Master Grande Tradition line of Jaeger-LeCoultre,has over the years achieved a nigh incomparable status with regard to technical ingenuity and exceptionally skilful artistry. The Master Grande Tradition Minute Repeater is a horological masterpiece with years of expert research spent on its development. Each component is carved to perfection to make the ensemble one of refined exquisiteness. The highly revered sound of crystalline purity emanating from the crystal gong foreshadows the greatness achieved by the Master Grande Tradition Minute Repeater. This is a much sought after edition of only a 100 pieces in 18 carat yellow gold.
Design
The graphics used in the Minute Repeater hold a charm of their own. A pink gold case adorns the 44 mm diametered time piece with a thickness of 15.6 mm. The dial is a silvered beauty with the two minute repeaters hammers visible through the dial. The balance coq is hand-engraved and the nec plus ultra refinement. The straps or bracelet is made out of alligator leather coupled with a pin buckle.A totality of 43 jewels has been used in the making of this brilliant time piece.
Features
The Jaeger-LeCoultre Calibre 947 with hand-winding mechanical movement is housed within this colossus of watch-making art. The frequency with which this time piece beats is 21,600 vibrations per hour with an astonishing power reserve of 15 days, a thunderous capacity of a whole fortnight.
This time piece thrives on its functionality and the almost decadent perfection that it achieves. The hour and minute function fulfils the basic needs of the watch. A barrel torque indicator is incorporated in the time piece along with an exceptionally designed minute repeater that is a class apart in terms of purity of sound. The intensity of the sound vibrations emitted from the crystal gong and the square sabre gongs composed of a secret material is proof of the amount of forethought and exclusivity that has gone into the development of the perfect sound.

This is an awesome timepiece, I accidentally dropped it and warranty covered the damages! I'm rating it 4 stars because the service period took too long; almost 3 months I think. They had to ship it out of the nation and get things fixed. Otherwise, a must have watch!

Jaeger-LeCoultre is a brand with a brand portfolio of highly complicated watches in a classic design with extensive use of precious metals. The brand has a long alliance with India since the British era where in the Reverso was designed as an aid for pool enthusiasts.
The Master grade tradition is undoubtedly the ultimate Jaeger incorporating the best of technology developed by the horologists and expert craftsmanship of the 150 year old company.
The 22k solid yellow gold case with the entire buttons and crown made of gold,thus watch is a jewellery made by watchmakers.the 43mm case is fairly sized. Although Jaeger invents amazing complications, it ensures that the customers must enjoy the craftsmanship Through skeleton dials.the trend is carried down in the grand tradition. The minute repeater function is charm. for newbies minute repeater is a mechanical complication that tells time using chimes similar to a mechanical bell with songs. The case back illustrates the function to its fullest. Power reserve indicator is a must have feature though the torque indicator is not understood by many.
Final verdict: The rocket high price is what forced me to give 3 stars. apart from that this is the most reliable horological jewel in the world that is sure to start a conversation.
