Description
With its compressor key system the manufacture Jaeger-LeCoultre invented a practical alternative to the conventional screw-in crown Even with a single half-turn of the compression key, the crown can be fully opened or closed; when closed, complete sealing is attained by the pressure on a cone located inside. Both states are clearly indicated by red and white arrows. So you do not have to remember, as with the old system, how tight you have to turn or to test back and forth until the screw engages.
In addition, the new solution, patented by Jaeger-LeCoultre, is also useful with manual winding watches in which previously screw-in crowns were mostly omitted and a better water resistance renounced. And, of course, the same applies for Chronograph pushers, where a significant improvement in handling is also provided.
