This rare
timepiece is Don Draper’s watch from the first two seasons of Mad Men. It is
perfectly chosen to align with Draper’s character development, as well as to
match the feel of the 1960s. Also, JLC is an iconic brand, and Don Draper is an
iconic character.
This line
of JLC was very popular with businessmen in the 1960s: the mechanical alarm
clock function served as a personal assistant and, especially with the “Tuxedo”
configuration, was more than appropriate for events and formal settings-a
perfect watch for Don Draper, and one that compliments the hustle and bustle of
the “Big Apple” in the first season.
The brash, outspoken protagonist of the critically acclaimed show Mad Men, is a
complex, layered character, with an intricate and dark backstory. In the first
season, set in 1960 when he’s starting out at the ad agency, Don Draper’s watch
is a Jaeger-LeCoultre Memovox.
This watch is symbolic of his status at the company, as it is a JLC starter
model. The edition Draper wears, nicknamed the “Tuxedo,” features a black outer
ring, white inner dial, and steel case. It is practical, with its built in
alarm feature, and attractive with a hint of retro.
Its dial was certainly recently refinished to look in such outstanding
condition. The watch comes with our usual Raffaello's microfiber cleaning
cloths.
