The Jaeger- LeCoultre Master Compressor Diving GMT Lady watch in pink gold ref. 156.2.61 is a perfect example of the evolutionary nature of diving watches – from pure tool, to pure luxury. A beautiful timepiece that implies a degree of activity but also femininity in the wearer, its personality is half ball gown, half wet suit. Jaeger-LeCoultre doesn’t claim that the Master Compressor Diving GMT is a true dive watch, but with 328 feet of water resistance, a rotating diver’s bezel, a durable rose gold case and a luxury red alligator JLC strap the watch could likely put up with living out the dreams of its functional ancestors. The luxury features are undeniable—with 18-karat rose gold metal accents and 16 diamonds on the bezel, the timepiece masks its “guy watch” heritage rather well. At 38mm wide, the watch is almost male sized. I have no doubt that more than a few men would even wear one, if only Jaeger-LeCoultre took out the “Lady” portion of the title.

You can’t really beat the prestige of an in-house made Jaeger-LeCoultre movement, especially one as fun and functional as this. Inside the Master Compressor Diving GMT Lady is a Jaeger-LeCoultre caliber 971D automatic mechanical movement beautifully finished and offering the time, date (with “open” window), GMT window offering a second time zone in 24-hour format, and a movement operation indicator. This last feature is more for your eyes than your information. The quarter circle window above 6 o’clock has a multi-color spinning disc under it that presents a degree of visual movement proving the movement is in operation (otherwise it would not move, think of it as a feature in lieu of a seconds hand). Unlike most dive watches that have screw-down crowns, Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Compressor watches typically have unique keys over the crowns that turn to unlock them.

With its diamonds and rose gold, this piece is truly a tool in disguise. Jaeger-LeCoultre enjoys reminding you that for many, a watch is still a necessary device, with their aggressively straightforward yet beautifully cohesive designs, this tool doesn’t need to sacrifice beauty and luxury for utility.
