Came extremely close to getting one of these but I went for the date version instead

Obviously in an ideal world I’d have had the means to buy both!

I agree that I’d prefer my choice without date, but I still love it and really think of it a a perfect casual watch. Plus it goes well with my wife’s reverso!

Also, after 20 years of collecting watches I have come to the conclusion that I just don’t really like chronographs. I appreciate them, I love to look at them, but when it comes to owning and keeping I’ve noticed that simple time only (perhaps with date) are the only pieces that stick around long term

Jaeger Lecoultre Master Chronograph Sector Dial.

As we discussed some sector dials, here is another one which is worth some interest, the Master Chronograph issued in 2017, to celebrate the Master Control 25 years. Nicely balanced, without date, and charming. This is one of these very good watches from ...  

I love the sector dial MCs

I would personally aim for the master control date, but this one is just as nice

I know...

but I don't mind the added functionality and I'm into the simplicity of the three hands with a date

Oh yes this chrono is perfect and a great sector dial.

Oh how nice if there were current releases like this one.

This must have been popular at the time, I imagine.

Maybe you just forgot?

Yes, I think you are correct.

I recall being very close to acquiring one of these compelling pieces, but I prefer a chronograph with a running seconds subdial.

I also agree that the simpler version would be spectacular without the date window.

You make the watch look nicer than I remember it Nico!

When I tried it on a couple of years ago I found the dial a bit cold and sterile. I went to the AD ready to pull the trigger but left feeling underwhelmed. Now you made me wonder if i’d just een in a bad mood that day

This can always happen. ;)
