Horological Meandering

Hi, I'd like to get any comments, from an enthusiast/horological perspective, about the following two watches, one which is currently being made and one which is not . Thanks DB Darien This message has been edited by db darien on 2011-04-17 11:17:37...  

With the Date, I would say JLC ,again, which is more polyvalent, and more discrete than the big and thick ( don't get me wrong, the VC is a nice one, but when you put it on the wrist, you know what I meant ) VC. Best, Nicolas.

First of all, it has, IMHO, a more timeless design. I find the VC design a bit too bulky. And in terms of horological contents, I also prefer the JLC for its in-house movement. But as always, that's just my point of view and it is much better to listen to... 

You can't go wrong either way, but each will feel very different on the wrist, so it is important to try them both on. If both feel equally good on the wrist, then I have a preference for the JLC in this case. I think JLC just got this one nearly perfect ...

Malte chrono is my most favorite VC collection, beautiful, clean, just sublime, maybe like 5070, maybe not Les Historiques is basically the same It just my preference of bigger diam indeed, it is comparable to the Duometre, best, ES

I see you are still not sure wether you got the right watch . Personally, I was disappointed when I tried on the JLC. In reality, it appears a bit too subtle, boring even, compared with the press pics. In pink gold, it is much, much better. I once had an ... 

Hi Marcus (and all those others who posted), Well, I can't really say I'm second-guessing my decision to purchase the VC but I'll be the first to admit that these two were the "finalists" (with an 'honorable mention' to Zenith) in my recent search for a v...
