Simply love these pieces !.. These MNs are cool tools, the Longines more than JLC.. But these 159s are splendid juwels !
.. BTW: can't play with a MN or even SHOM - too elusive so far,

At least can share my 159s, well..whereby one lovely one with a

Had taken me more than 4 years to find my own JLC 159, in black..
All I can say, these are superb to wear..
Left: 159 light-greenish; credit: my wife

Rgt: now with proper hands

Wow! Being over 300 years old I guess Vlad misplaced this...
and was doing a little house cleaning. Looks vintage & brand new at the same time Nicolas! I like both pieces, but the longer seconds hand and 5, 10, 15 etc., of the Marine Nationale Enjoy! -- Richard.
