JLC Perpetual Master Ultra Thin (Black Dial)
This watch combines my love of a light slim case (unobtrusive to shirt sleeves and arm movements), an understated black dial (which relinquishes details only to eyes that treads on details), and a mechanical complication (that models the pesky Gregorian c...
Yes indeed. Congrat's on getting this one.
Finger is much better, thanks. Another 5-7 days and the stitches come out. Cheers, John
I think the fact that "the year box at 7-8 o'clock is mostly unnoticeable on the black dial" is a good thing,
as we normally don't need to rely on watches for telling which year it is now.
Oops. This is what I meant! Agree with you 100%!
I'd prefer the date is not there and it's great that ithe date is unnoticeable! Sorry, English!
Haha! I thought you don't like it because you said that's your only "gripe". :-)
Never mind. Enjoy the watch.
Congrats mate !
welcome to the Dr Strange club lol My silver dial boutique edition says Hi. I got this before the black dial version was released. If I had to choose again, it would be a nightmare decision lol Cheers Robin ...
Thanks Robin! Glad to be part of this club! Fell pretty hard for this watch before Dr. Strange came out!
I am willing to bet you are struggling somewhat with the idea of attaining the black dial as well given the recent price drops!
You are right. The only small reserve I have on this watch is the indication of the year.
For the rest, it is just superb, well made and a very interesting perpetual calendar. Enjoy yours, John. Best, Nicolas
Thanks again for your kind words, Nicolas!
I recently consolidated my watch collection size from 7 to 4. I believe this watch will be one of the cornerstones moving on!
I will make no commitments to keep it at 4!
This watch just required me to trade in a few pieces
I think I prefer the black dial too, so handsome.
And I agree with you as well, glad the year box blends into the dial quite nicely. I would've preferred if it wasn't there altogether, sort of messes with the otherwise perfectly balanced dial. Great piece regardless!
A very nice, under-the-radar piece.. +1 on the year, which for me is pretty superfluous.. ;))
.. But all together an appealing low-key offering, but not without charm .. Cheers & Best, hs
