A Prototype of the Latest Master Compressor Extreme W-Alarm Auctioned Online for UNESCO World Heritage Centre

Geneva (ots/PRNewswire)

On February 16th,
jaeger-lecoultre.com has started an online auction of the prototype
"Number 1" of the model Master Compressor Extreme W-Alarm Tides of
Time, from its SIHH 2009 collection.
100% of the proceeds will go to a World Heritage project
identified by UNESCO.
Symbolising the "Tides of Time" partnership between
Jaeger-LeCoultre, the UNESCO World Heritage Centre and the
International Herald Tribune, this timepiece associates two of the
Manufacture's emblematic complications: an alarm and the simultaneous
display of the time in 24 time zones. Three of the cities on its
outer dial ring have been replaced by three natural sites - Scandola
in France, Galapagos in Ecudor and Tubbataha in Philippines -
inscribed on the World Heritage List benefiting from a dedicated
preservation programme supported by Jaeger-LeCoultre.
The Manufacture Jaeger-LeCoultre is involved in a three-year
partnership with the UNESCO World Heritage Centre and the
International Herald Tribune to help promote, protect and safeguard
outstanding marine sites that require specific immediate
intervention.
Interested in joining the auction of the prototype Number 1 in
steel and titanium of the latest Master Compressor Extreme W-Alarm
'Tides of Time' for World Heritage?
