That was in 2017, which explains that the Gyrotourbillon Five is missing, on the picture: No wonder why Jaeger Lecoultre is the Watchmaker's watchmakers. How many brand can claim being mutli-axis specialists? With such an horological content? With so many...

A Rare Group Of...

A family photo of the Jaeger Lecoultre Gyrotourbillons One, Two, Three, Four.

The most stunning is still Nr. 1❣️

My favorite, as well.

Nr. 5 is great too, but it‘s much more busy. At Nr 1 the focus is only on the beautiful tourbillon…

Yes and the discreet perpetual calendar, and the equation of time. Without forgetting the 8 Days movement.

Full respect is due for such mechanical accomplishments…

Yes, all ( on the photo ) are in platinum. My favorite? The One!

This quite the family portrait. Bravo JLC. Merci Nico

Mon plaisir, Bill.

Difficult to make a choice…

We are on the same boat. Thanks, O.

This family is awesome inspiring. Give me the 1, 4, and missing 5 and I would be a happy camper 😊. BTW, check your WhatsApp mon ami 😉

A recent message on Whatsapp? I didn't receive it. As for your Gyros, for me, it would be a close game between the 1 and the 5, and the 4 at the third place.

Will send another now 😜

Cool!

Gyro 5 Gyro 1 Gyro 4 Gyro 3....in that order for me 😜

Agreed on the 3 at the fourth place, the 4 at the third place. Now, for me, I would rather rank the One at the first place, but with a small, very small margin.

I understand your love and affection for the Gyro 1 as I feel the same way but objectively, the Gyro 5 with the Westminster Chime (4 gongs) snd enamel dial is just an overall BETTER piece in every sense of the word (tech, design, layout, movement, etc...)

Tow different beasts. The big plus of the 5 is its sophisticated minute repeater, paired with a Gyrotourbillon and a perpetual calendar, indeed. Now the One is pure magic, and in terms of charm, maybe a tad superior.

We agree on MANY things my brother but I have to disagree with you here. The Gyro 1 wins on NOSTALGIA as it started the Gyro run BUT there is absolutely NO way it has more charm than the Gyro 5. In fact, I would say the opposite would be true 😜😉

The charm is subjective... ;)

Agreed 🙏🙏 as is the beauty of women, cars, etc...😉

;)

Charm is not defined by complexity or supeority… ☺️

Definitely. It is very personal.

Here we are agreed. 100% personal 😉

Understood and agreed. 👍🙏

Impressive and totally agree with you.

Thanks for looking, my friend.

This makes my head spin....

Indeed! It is just incredible.

I wonder what the part count of that photo is

Better not knowing that. ;)

I can only imagine the look on the watchmaker’s face

You will certainly make his day, week, month and whole year, for sure. ;)

I suppose those four would be more interesting

You might be right. ;)

Here is a 4 watch collection I could live with 😜

Hehehe... I could grab only one, then adding a Minute Repeater and a Duometre, for the perfect collection.

And still, the 5 is missing on this photo!

Incredible lineup!!!

Impressive and hypnotizing !! Thanks Nico for the picture ... What other brand can produce so many complicated watches, year after year ???

I don't see many others, indeed.

That's why this brand is so magic.

✅✅

This digital chrono is magic, coupled to the bewitching Gyrotourbillon. Good choice!
