Diversity from the Seventies: Jaeger 4 ATM Chronograph, Lecoultre E 870 Polaris II, and and Jaeger Lecoultre E 871 Memovox.
The crazy years for JLC and for watches in general.
The funky style, even if the 4 ATM Chrono is the wiser of these 3, a touch of Madness for the two others, a strong style, and some colors which are very representative from this era, with this special blue, and the orange touches.
It is a quite good theme to explore. There were square, tonneau shaped cases, too, but for the moment, let's focus on these three.
Did you also notice that the three names were represented? Lecoultre, Jaeger, and Jaeger- Lecoultre.
Best,

The 70s, Pierre Cardin was King and JLC made super cool watches :-)

The 4ATMs is a heart beater, love it !!! The blue one is so cool ! The orange one is definitey the weirdest yet the shiny bezel and brushed case probably gives a nice impression on the wrist.
I wonder how the alarm disc (which is squarrish) rotates, probably hard to set the alarm in the angles (1 to 2; 4 to 5, 7 to 8, 10 to 11) ?
I must confess my favorite is by far the less seventies (and the more classic): the chronograph
The two others seem a bit outdated to my taste 😊
