Jaeger Lecoultre 2016 SIHH: Master Ultra Thin Perpetual 39... Black.
By: amanico : June 7th, 2016-00:00
A new member in the family. After the rose gold, white gold and steel, unveiled in 2013, and after having seen some black dialed beauties, last year, such as the Master Control and the Master Ultra Thin Moon, Jaeger Lecoultre had the good idea to give to ...

should be an industry standard by now and that would in turn incentivize manufacturers to up their finishings....
May be some explanations about the departure point of this trend...

It is always hard to say who began to offer display backs on watches. But, I had the chance to meet and talk to Jean Pierre Hagmann (very well known watch and case maker in Geneva who now works for Vacheron) some months ago and he told me that he said to ...
In the case of watches in this category
By: skyeriding : June 15th, 2016-00:29
I feel its almost a must to have a display back. Even despite being an automatic, its a testament to show off the fine finishing that comes with watches within this segment. Even "simple" machine anglage with cotes de Geneve and pearlage is still a feast ...

I do like
By: Esharp : June 7th, 2016-01:34
It would be nice if the dial was available in French, like the original - for me it would add a touch of romance (well, at least a Romance language, hehe) to the watch. Aside from that there is much to admire here, a great case, useful complication, nice ...
Very nice for sure
By: rnaden : June 7th, 2016-04:44
the black dial makes a statement of class and the new rotor is a nice touch. Personally would like one, but like my MUT Moon 39, I can't read the subdials well, and to me if there is a function or complication I can't use then I probably will pass. Still,...
Nice watch
By: andrevmsilva : June 7th, 2016-05:15
And a lot of bang for the buck! Real classy
Enjoy

The wrist shot I took a few weeks ago. ...
I love the new case...
By: watchme : June 7th, 2016-06:41
however, in the old version, in which JLC turned the complication plate 180 degrees, I liked better, especially with the last 2 digits of the year embedded within the top subdial. I feel it gave it better overall balance and made it look less like the Kur...
The year window is Mandatory on this calibre
By: patrickh : June 7th, 2016-13:02
as all is programmed to change all together with the ALONE pusher. I sold mine in WG, as if you do not use the watch for a long time (turn-over period) you have to push any missing date with the pusher. Or to put the watch on the winder. In fact, the year...
+1, agreed.
By: patrickh : June 7th, 2016-13:13
To note, the old calibre was very accurate from second to year. Congratulations to JLC watchmakers. Patrickh
For me, there is something nerve racking...
By: Kamy : June 9th, 2016-01:02
... about a self winding perpetual calendar watch without a power reserve indicator. If I had my wish, it would be a manual wind. Nevertheless, it certainly is a striking watch. Thanks for the pictorial Nicolas! Any chance you have a wrist shot? Cheers my...
Amazing black dial...
By: mahesh : June 9th, 2016-20:57
the moon phase placement below 12 looks better IMHO. I like the \'dot\' minute marker, it brings in a vintage charm ?! Do we need the \'year\' window at all, it would look more balanced ? - I would prefer not to have it, but it is a personal choice. Wonde...
Stunning watch...
By: APROchrono : June 15th, 2016-07:45
Would love to see this in SS or RG with a subtle sunray midnight blue dial. I am a sucker for blue dials!
Saw this one at the Boutique ...
By: nilomis : June 17th, 2016-07:59
Tempting, yes but I was able to resist. After all, my wife owns the white dialed and she may start a duo. Oh no! Cheers, Nilo
This is on my list but.....
By: Velociphile - No longer in the building : June 20th, 2016-11:46
..not available in French as far as I can tell from asking the London Boutique. Is that absolutely the case JLC? Shame if so. And I would still prefer it if the back tips of the hands were like the earlier version - but not a deal breaker. They are notice...
I love this for the new rotor :)
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : June 20th, 2016-17:57
the black dial is very cool too of course and I like it too. I used to think I should have waited for this black dial version instead of getting my silver sunburst dial boutique special edition but after looking at this in the metal, I think my silver dia...
How "robust" is the movement?
By: schopfer : June 23rd, 2016-18:32
How "robust" is the movement? This has been on my short-short list since it was released, but can anyone comment on the fragility of the 868 movement? I\'m curious how it compares to other ultra thin movements...although I know JLC is known for some of th...
Thanks Nico.
By: schopfer : June 24th, 2016-05:53
Certainly wouldn\'t let this one fall off the table!
Does anyone know if....

Looks great
By: Tourbeon : October 30th, 2016-14:26
And detailed review. This may be a next potential
It's lovely
By: Millhoose : October 31st, 2016-17:58
I am a big fan - thanks for your review. I think I prefer it to the white face and the power reserve too. A PC is a bit of a grail for me...lucky you. Enjoy!
