Less rare than the yellow gold version, this is a Duometre which is worth some consideration, living a bit under the shadow of the white gold black dial or platinum grey or white dials. 

In rose gold, it adds a touch of warm and enhances its retro look. 

What do you think? 







There is no bad Duometre à Chronographe. Even if I am less fan of the open dialed ones... 

Best,

Nicolas

My local AD has one in the display case. That movement deserves a closer look.

I never really warmed to the dials with the windows cut out but somehow they seemed to work better in the magnetite versions and the whole gray and gold combo seemed really well done. Do you know if JLC ever actually sold those? I've never seen one IRL or for sale anywhere so it feels almost like a April fools joke from JLC....

I would even settle for a sports version in tantalum 😁💪
