With Jaeger-LeCoultre Repair Guarantee Certificate dated 01/02/2011.

For the illustration of a similar luminous globe clock see Jaeger-LeCoultre - the Story of the Grande Maison by Franco Cologni, p. 351, Inv. 539.

The present "Mappemonde" is a fine example of one of Jaeger-LeCoultre's Art Deco table clocks, illustrating the division of the earth in the 1930s, and a rare find given the delicateness of its glass globe.
