JAEGER-LeCOULtRE<br />

dUOMEtRE A CHRONOGRAPHE – REF. 601.24.20<br />

The Duomètre à Chronographe is a true masterpiece of micromechanics, supplied with two independent power reserves by its<br />

“Dual-Wing” caliber. One power reserve is devoted entirely to <strong>the</strong> chronograph functions: hours, minutes, seconds, a display of<br />

units per minute and a foudroyante seconds display with zero reset. A counter at 6:00 displays <strong>the</strong> jumping seconds, divided<br />

into six units and linked to <strong>the</strong> chronograph seconds hand. The attention to aes<strong>the</strong>tic detail extends to <strong>the</strong> decoration on <strong>the</strong><br />

Jaeger-LeCoultre 380 caliber, as bridges that relate to conventional time measurement are finished differently <strong>from</strong> those involved<br />

with <strong>the</strong> chronograph functions.<br />
