FS: Jaeger Lecoultre JLC military Australian WWW mark X watc

Dear guys,

For sale today is one extraordinary watch with a rich historical value, a JLC WWW mark x, caliber 479 that participate nearer at the end of the world war II.

Bought this directly from the owner's son, who has sent me old photos of his father participating the world war II. He also have some history of this watch worn in the battlefield, how cool is that.
Watch was serviced and polished once by his son some time back done by an Australian NAWCC member and there is some nickel wear on the case. The case is polished but I am sure if you know your watchmaker well enough, the crisp sharp edges can be brought back and replate it again.

The dial and hands is incredible, one of the best I have ever seen. Movement runs very strong and keeps very good time.
This is a rarer version of this WWW and is an Australian's, that doesn't have the WWW marking and does not have fixed lugs. Certainly 100% original and correct as I bought it directly from the owner's son, no doubt about the provenance (or your money back)
No part of the watch has been redone and every part is original to the watch (except
the spring bars and strap)

You can read more about the Australian version here: http://www.time514.com/AustralianX.htm

Here are the shots of the actual watch: (nice last 3 serial numbers, which in chinese/ cantonese means, a road to riches, lol)
