Am looking for a dress watch and the local boutique has this demonstration unit for viewing. This dial is my favourite amongst the 3 colors, although my mind might change as I have yet to see the burgundy version.

It goes from bright olive

To a darker, almost blackish shade of green

Key Points from the Discussion

The green dial offers a dynamic visual experience, transitioning from a vibrant olive to a dark, almost black shade depending on the lighting.
Comparing the green dial with other color options, such as burgundy, is essential for making an informed decision, as personal preference can shift upon seeing all available variations in person.
Another collector shared images of their own JLC watches, providing a direct visual comparison to aid in the decision-making process, emphasizing that both options are excellent choices.
There is currently a significant wait time for this particular Jaeger-LeCoultre model, with some collectors experiencing waits of six months or more, indicating high demand.
The ability to acquire these watches without being forced to purchase other less desired models is a positive aspect for collectors, despite the wait times.
Another community member shared additional wrist shots, further illustrating the watch's appearance in different contexts and angles.

It is beautiful

There's a wait time for it now though, like most other watches being sold, sadly. I'm still waiting for mine - it has been 6 months and I'm told not too much longer...hopefully that rings true! Richard

Unfortunately I am in the same situation too.

The waiting time makes the delivery of the watch more special I guess.

I suppose so....as long as it's a few months and not a few years

And we do not have to buy watches we don't want to get to order one of these Going by your profile, I believe we are waiting on the same watch from the same boutique....please post pictures once you receive yours and I'll do the same.
