Inside beats the Jaeger-LeCoultre calibre 900, an ultra-thin automatic movement developed during the early 1970s, a period when the manufacture of Le Sentier reaffirmed its expertise in ultra-thin self-winding calibres. Introduced around 1975, the calibre 900 evolved from the renowned Jaeger-LeCoultre 800 series, sharing its elegant architecture but incorporating a more efficient bidirectional winding system and improved shock protection. Measuring only 3.2 mm in height, the movement has a central rotor mounted on ball bearings, ensuring smooth winding in both directions while maintaining minimal thickness — a hallmark of Jaeger-LeCoultre’s engineering approach.
