That is a nice watch ... too bad it has little to offer to a Navy SEAL

I'm told that a few of those JLC watches were given to a few SEAL guys (not to my informant, he curses)  but as far as "official certification" there is none. 


It works something like this ... a SEAL gets a watch, wears it, says he likes it, a friend agrees ... and the manufacturer is perfectly okay in claiming approved by Navy SEALs.

Most of them on active duty are wearing G-Shocks or if retired, old Rolex, Tudor or Seiko dive watches.

So I am told, and so I have seen.

I still want one myself.

...prototypes were lent to a couple of officers who wore them for some time. I’d guess JLC paid to use the trident and that’s that. Any military person going on a mission would much prefer a G-Shock, and for a personal watch and r&r an officer would keep ...

The Navy SEAL branding does less than nothing for me...

I in no way aspire to the life of a Navy SEAL. I presume most Navy SEALs equally do not aspire to my life. If me and a Navy SEAL nonetheless happen to share appreciation for Jaeger LeCoultres, great! But I don't see how either of our endorsements ought to...
