Parasitic Jaeger (Schmarotzerraubmöwe - Stercorarius parasiticus), January 2010,
Daytona Beach, Florida
11-14-10 Pelagic Trip out of New Symyrna, FL out to the Gulfstream. The second picture shows a couple of the diagnostic features for Parasitic versus Pomarine Jaeger. The Parasitic shows white on the top of the wings while a Pomarine wouldn't and the tail is sharp and pointed where on a Pomarine it would be longer and twisted with a round end.

Pomarine Jaeger (Spatelraubmöwe - Stercorarius pomarinus), May 2014, New Smyrna Beach - offshore, Florida
From late 50's showing some reference differences and models.
Some of these have the caliber 800 movement (P800).
The Dial
The silver-white dial provides a beautifully subtle contrast between the case, dial furnishings and hands. The dial carries applied yellow gilt standard Arabic numerals at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 interspersed with applied Dagger hour indices. These are matched with the original, restored yellow gilt ‘Dauphine’ hands. The dial is very simple and clean and the look, as with all vintage Jaeger-LeCoultre, is one of classic symmetry, simplicity, and elegance.
The dial is very simply signed Jaeger-LeCoultre with ‘Swiss Made’ at the very bottom of the dial.
The lens is new, having been replaced with a new original as part of the restoration.
This is the original dial which has been restored to the very highest standards by our dial restorers, considered to be the best in the UK.
The Movement
Jaeger-LeCoultre movements are amongst the highest quality in the world and are very highly regarded by all watchmakers. The movement here is the Jaeger-LeCoultre JLC Calibre P800/C hand-wound, 17 Jewels movement. This legendary movement was designed and produced at the time when investment and development in hand-wound watch movements was at its highest. Research, rapid development and investment during and after World War 2, led to the Omega Cal.30T2, the IWC Cal.89 and the JLC K/P 800/C. Each of these legendary movements was designed from the ground up for new levels of shock resistance, reliability and accuracy. The K or P in the calibre number refers to the form of shock protection.
Following an overhaul and service by our Jaeger-LeCoultre specialist watchmaker, the movement is running perfectly, having been calibrated and timed at +6 seconds per day. This is truly outstanding for a watch of this age and the watch also has a power reserve of 42 hours.
This watch movement is now ready for many more decades of faithful service and we have no hesitation in offering this watch with our 12-month warranty*. We will also be more than happy to assist with servicing in the future.
The movement is signed Jaeger-LeCoultre, Swiss Made and carries the Calibre number 800/C and the movement serial number 1055797 which dates this watch to 1955.

Stercorarius parasiticus
Churchill, MB
Depredating a Canada Goose nest, its bill was still dripping with yolk. The bird ate one egg and left the other three for another meal, desperately defending the goose nests from other predators like Common Ravens and Herring Gulls.
Third-cycle? The face appears to be fairly clean-yellow, but I think I can see some barring on the flanks.

Long-tailed Jaegers are the most unusual of the three jaeger species in Newfoundland, but conversely the only one likely to be seen on land. This young one was hanging out on the barrens near St. Shott's eating berries - something the other two jaeger species would never do. September 4 2009.
