Condition Assessment
Overall Condition: Pre-Owned - Great. This timepiece has been regularly worn and shows consistent surface wear. The case remains full and unpolished, and a light professional polish would restore it to a factory-fresh appearance.
Dial, Hands, & Crystal: The deep black dial is flawless, featuring contrasting polished and sandblasted hands. The chronograph sub-dials are distinct, and the sapphire crystal is pristine.
Case & Bezel: The 40mm stainless steel case and polished bezel show common surface hairlines and swirling consistent with use. The factory edges and proportions remain sharp and intact.
Strap/Bracelet & Clasp: The original alligator leather strap shows wear, creasing, and evidence of previous use, indicating it may require replacement soon. The original JLC deployant clasp is in good condition, showing light surface marks.

What Makes the Master Chronograph Special
The Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Chronograph, reference Q1538470, embodies the pinnacle of classic Swiss watchmaking tradition. It stands out by featuring a fully in-house automatic chronograph movement, the Calibre 751A/1, which employs both a column wheel for crisp pusher actuation and a vertical clutch for smooth, jump-free starts—technical features typically reserved for high-end chronographs. JLC's reputation as the "Watchmaker of Watchmakers" stems from their history of supplying movements to brands like Audemars Piguet and Patek Philippe, and this caliber reflects that mastery.
Aesthetically, the watch is defined by the purity of the Master Control collection: a slim 40mm case, elegant dauphine hands, and a balanced dial layout. The black dial is sophisticated, with a subtle sunburst finish on the main dial contrasting with the fine concentric guilloche pattern on the sub-dials. Most importantly, every Master Control watch undergoes JLC's rigorous 1000 Hours Control test, certifying its performance and reliability after casing, providing the wearer with absolute confidence in its timekeeping.
