Nicknamed “Jumbo” by collectors, it owes this nickname to its “tonneau”-shaped case measuring 39 mm., who was very large for the time. Avant-garde, it was the first all-steel watch considered a luxury watch, more expensive at the time than a dress-watch in precious metal. Another characteristic, its case is made of only two parts: the case-back and the case-band in a single part entirely maintained by the screwed octagonal bezel, allowing a perfect water-resistance. Reference 5402 houses a version of the highly appreciated Jaeger-LeCoultre 920 movement, the ultra-thin AP 2121 calibre. This reference has been produced in four series, marked: · “A” (approximately 2 000 pieces); · “B” (between 1 000 and 2 000 pieces); · “C” and “D”, each of them with small modifications to the bracelet, dial and movement.
