Jaeger-LeCoultre ESPACE PC 107

Pierre Cardin x Jaeger “Espace” - ref. PC 107 / 1970s

When Jaeger meets Pierre Cardin: playing with codes Description This watch, the PC 107, designed by Pierre Cardin is the perfect illustration of the French designer's audacity and imagination. Designed for Jaeger, it breaks with the traditional stylistic codes of watchmaking. It is a metal design object that is worn on the wrist, witness to an era and the extravagance that Cardin could demonstrate: Parisian evenings, Courrèges skirts, colorful patterns... It is worn on a wide white strap echoing its dial. A play on volumes and materials, so characteristic of the 1970s. How to wear it? It is a watch that, although vintage, seems futuristic. A timeless piece, typical of the 1970s lines, which must certainly be worn with assertive style. It would go very well with a casual but sober outfit to contrast with it. Why did Françoise choose it? It is undoubtedly a watch that bears witness to its era. A rare model that will delight collectors and lovers of unusual watches, with the quality of Jaeger movements of course. History Launched from 1971 to 1973, the Espace collection marks the collaboration between designer Pierre Cardin and watchmaker Jaeger. It would be inspired by space expeditions, notably that of Yuri Gagarin in 1961. The watches were then made of non-precious materials such as metal, lucite, crystals, etc. All have been designed with a manual movement and present designs playing on geometric volumes whose lines are borrowed from the space universe. Dimensions Material Steel Usage instructions Watch with mechanical movement, means by manual winding every day.
