Jaeger LeCoultre Q8108420 Geophysic Universal Time SS Blue Dial

Introduced at Watches and Wonders in 2015, the Jaeger‑LeCoultre Geophysic Universal Time reference Q8108420 in polished stainless steel presents collectors with a compelling world‑time complication paired with a true‑seconds (dead‑beat) mechanism, powered by the in‑house Caliber 772. Its striking blue lacquer dial features a cartographic representation with sunburst‑finished continents, underlining JLC’s mastery of dial artistry and travel functionality. The 41.6 mm case—augmented by an exhibition caseback—houses the well‑decorated Gyrolab balance, a free‑sprung, non‑circular design originally seen in the Master Compressor Extreme Lab 1; its jumping hour and world‑time discs offer intuitive setting via a single crown. The 36‑jewel movement delivers a 40‑hour power reserve, balanced accuracy, and notably independent local hour adjustment without stopping minutes and seconds—an invaluable feature for frequent flyers. COSC chronometer certification emphasizes its precision and technical refinement. Though not produced in limited numbers, its refined mechanism, innovative dead‑beat seconds, and elegant map dial have made it a sought‑after piece among discerning aficionados. It remains a sophisticated embodiment of utilitarian elegance within the esteemed Geophysic family. Like New with Jaeger‑LeCoultre box and papers dated 2019.
