Just picked my Hometime from servicing

Dec 03, 2016,03:34 AM
 

3 weeks and 1 day - impressive turnaround for servicing. I never had a watch returned by any brand I own in under 2 months, well done JLC.
Ended up having the case polished and it looks brand new. I am sure by the end of next week I will add a scratch of two to make it "mine" again.
While in the Bond St boutique I was told this model is now discontinued.

Great model!

Haven\'t seen one for a while. Thanks for sharing

I would say that mine is more common. I don't know how many of these both models were produced

Surprised to learn that this Hometime model won\'t be made anymore. Best wishes Alkiro

Yours is so similar in many ways, yet looks so different at the same time

Completely different symmetry.

Absolutely. They are very different and I'm surprised to learn that your model will be out of production soon.

For instance, your day/night indicator is the same than mine on my JLC Master Tourbillon. Best wishes Alkiro ...  

Cool watch.

Good to hear about the fast service at JLC. My Master Ultra Thin needs to go in soon. HAGWE

Did you service is due to an issue or it was just time?

Mostly routine service

5+ years of occasional use, but kept it wound 100% of its life. Started to run just a touch slow which I hate (a bit fast is fine)

Ah

I guess that\'s part of the reason

A very nice model!!

Which makes me wonder what my next JLC would be: hometime, memovox, calendar? Thanks for sharing, it shows that local but official service can be great!! Best, E

Memovox did not work for me

I really wanted to like it but did not enjoy using it. I do like the calendar. And the perpetual calendar would have been perfect if the year window did not spoil the symmetry. All in all, I find most Master Controls very nice, despite the above - I am re...
