Jaeger Lecoultre Master Minute Repeater Platinum.

One shot taken in 2015, at the Manufacture, of a watch which inspired and made me dream a lot since it was unveiled, in 2005. 


Think about it... While we were living the reign of the Master Compressor ( 2002 ) and some Reverso in platinum ( XGT with the Septantième / GT With the Reverso Platinum Nr 1, Nr 2 and Tourbillon Skeleton ), the birth of the Amvox line in 2004, Jaeger Lecoultre really had a mad time with awesome creations, such as the Gyrotourbillon One in 2004, the Master Minute Repeater in 2005, the Reverso à Triptyque in 2006 and the Duometre in 2007... 

The Master Minute Repeater in platinum was one of these first mad creations which gave a strong impression to watch lovers. 

One of these watches which made me rediscover the brand. A new face of the brand. 

Hence this picture. 




Revisiting a noble and traditional complication in a fresh, young and crazy way... That's something we would like to see... Again. 

In my opinion, this Master Minute Repeater is the way to follow...

Best,

Nicolas

A very very technical watch!

A very respected complication (the ultimate?), a crazy power reserve (15 days, unique model with that feature in JLC?), some technical information (torque meter, not sure what it brings but as well as the time you can give the torque of the moment ), all ... 

The way I hope JLC will follow with the next technical HM perhaps?

This is a marvel beaut force from the amazing JLC. I’ve considered moving in one of these recently.

I’m trying to hunt one down at right price.

So it’s gunna take kidneys to acquire?

My mind races to wonder of how super high technical this HM might be

Our kidneys. :))) [nt]

Less is more approach with a Gyro?

Do you mean you would just like a simple Gyrotourbillon? What case design

You know I won’t say no!

 
 By: cory : April 20th, 2018-01:19
I would love this. Probably more so than a really highly complicated piece. A simple but complex Gyro

That's it. [nt]

Without a doubt, the finish must be top!

I’m really keen on this proposition. What else could be in the dial side? Time only is a little boring? A beautiful Gyrotourbillon on the reverse is a marvellous idea... the reverse becomes the masterpiece to the wearer. Now we have to convince JLC! Rewor... 

I know... so what does it look like? [nt]

That is NEW and different.

my love affair with JLC begins in 2003 and on this forum in 2004. Finally buying the MCM early 2005.Those years you mention was a long period with lots of creatively, successful designs that pushed design to new heights. Also lots of great things happenin...
