Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control Geographic

About this reference

The Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control Geographic reference 142.8.92 was produced from approximately 1990 through the early 2000s. Collectors prioritize this reference for its 38mm case diameter and the caliber 929/3 movement, which features a power reserve indicator, date sub-dial, and a second time zone linked to a rotating city disc. This model was the first to undergo the brand’s 1,000 Hours Control testing protocol, a standard now applied across their collections. The dial is characterized by its asymmetrical layout and a dedicated aperture at six o'clock for city selection. On the secondary market, stainless steel examples typically trade between $6,000 and $9,000 depending on condition and the inclusion of original documentation. A notable production variant includes the limited edition "25th Anniversary" model, though the standard silver dial remains the most common configuration for this reference.
