With Nicolas' help, mayhaps we can convince JLC to produce a purist edition watch like this... I would be the first to commit to buying one, and would love to see them numbered as well. Since it is my idea, maybe I could reserve number 1 of X, if X watche...
.. but maybe a "simple" dial reverso with small seconds at six and a most simple and subtle crosshairs around the seconds hands, without individual second markings, as a small "tribute"to Geophysic, might work.
the point is can we convince JLC to make us our own antimagnetic black dial watch with components that are all available at the factory, be it 10 or 25 or X number, if we have committed funds. and as a TTG1958 owner, I would not be bothered one bit. Manuf...
It is true we have no idea how many spare/extra 38.5mm steel case/case components are leftover in a storage drawer at the Manufacturer from the steel TTG 2014 project which are necessary to make the antimagnetic case properties. However, the Manufacturer ...
That will be with great pleasure. A Special Geophysic, that would be great, but they rather have the Polaris program in the tube, rather than the Geophysic, alas. I will see. What was funny with your post is that I played the game several times, choosing ...
to be as favorable and convincing as possible -- as it is said, there is no second chance for a first impression. Plus, are there lessons learned from you prior failed attempts that we can use in our favor? We need to be sure we have a real cadre of conse...
I mention these two specifically because both IWC and Vacheron have made limited/special edition watches with Hodinkee, both of which of course did very well. We should use this argument in our proposal: there is no rational reason why Richemont subsidiar...
London boutique green dial reverso (26 pieces) Thai edition yellow dial (39 pieces) Does anyone know if these were made at the request of the boutiques, or JLC headquarters decided to produce them and then made the announcement to the lucky boutique? Has ...
While I like the idea and like paying less for great things, I suspect Jaeger-LeCoultre would need to see a lot more margin per on such a small run. Like $10k or even $20. The Geophysic was almost $10k. They made 800 in steel. I'll grant you in this scena...
I’m sure JLC could make the TT Geo case again, but the number of the edition would heavily impact cost. Perhaps increase case size (all other proportions maintained) to 39 mm to account for the perceptually smaller black dial. I would skip dauphine and le...
Casa Fagliano strap, a thin Reverso case, and who knows... some special dial or special hands. Or it comes with 2 dials and 2 sets of hands (so our users can eventually swap), and maybe two straps. We'd choose one vintage dial/hand set and one modern dial...
While the Reverso is not unpopular on WPS, it's still in the shadow of the round watches here! Admittedly, I wear my Master Ultra Thin more often than my Reverso, but that's only because my Reverso is in need of a new strap!
