Jaeger-LeCoultre Chronometer Ref. 24002

In a delightful nod to a personal milestone, blomman Mr Blue commemorates his 24,000th forum post by dedicating it to the Jaeger-LeCoultre Chronometer reference 24002. This article celebrates not only his prolific contributions to the community but also highlights a significant vintage JLC reference, inviting fellow collectors to appreciate its unique charm and history.

Friends,

After a certain age you tend to forget your birthday…

Same goes for posts here in the forum!

But Andy just reminded me of my 24000 post so…

I didn’t prepare anything, but will acknowledge this event with a dedicated 24002 post!

Why 24002? Because at least I can pretend I did prepare something and dedicate this post to the Jaeger-LeCoultre Chronometer reference 24002!

Yes, pun intended…!

Thank you all for your friendship and support here in the forum!

Best

Blomman

Well done and played, my friend.

Congrats on your milestone. A very good idea to match your post counter with this JLC. We should more often see it. And here we see two! One " regular ", the other being a proto! Bravo. Nicolas

The problem is to match the post count to a reference...! ;)

Next for you E 168=168 Kposts?! Thank you, my friend! Not many prototypes around...! Best Blomman
