====== JLC 898 ======
The **JLC 898** is an [[automatic]] watch movement from [[Jaeger-LeCoultre]].

Launched in [[2013]], Calibre 898 is a derivative of the ultra-thin [[JLC 899|Calibre 899]] and closely related to [[JLC 896|Calibre 896]]. Unlike Cal. 896, however, Cal. 898 has no [[sub seconds|seconds subdial]] (or indeed any seconds display) and adds an optional [[day/night indicator]]. All three versions measure just 3.3 mm thick like Cal. 899.

There are three JLC 898 variants 

  * **JLC 898A** (204 pieces, 30 jewels) - Night/day indicator
  * **JLC 898B** (202 pieces, 29 jewels) - Night/day indicator
  * **JLC 898C** (195 pieces, 29 jewels) - Hands only

The 898 is an [[automatic]] movement 3.30 mm thick. It runs at 28800 vph and has a power reserve of 43 hours.
