Bring on the way-back machine!
This was a great period for Swiss watches IMO. It was a time of technical excellence without obnoxious designs and outrageous prices. Designs have recently come back down to earth but prices have remained high.

Stuck in the 90s early 00s
Hi A shot that says everything about when I started to get interested in JLC. Very much of its era - even if it's less idiosyncratic than the 70s! For me 3 very cool watches that define the period, but are part of the core of JLC. Yes I know cool and inte...

But those watches are the ones that made an impression on me when I first got exposed to JLC..
Especially the Reverso and the Master Moon. I initially had the GT in the early 2000s and thought about getting the Master Moon. Those are 3 great examples
Thanks :) - I'm enjoying them still.
Had the Reverso from new - got it nearly 20 years ago. Cheers JML
Don’t underestimate
It’s a fine collection and true resemblance of, what I would call, “normal” watches. Time pieces that are actually being worn on day to day basis. Great companions that bring back a smile every time you put one on your wrist. I’ve got some similar pieces ...
An excellent collection from an amazing era. I like many designs from the early 2000s too.
90s feel a bit more dated today, however, that really is part of the charme. In that narration, your watches are clearly 2000s pieces. Best
I think its possible to see links to current pieces & with the Master moon I think you can trace back to earlier calendar watches.
Still would like a master control with a gold medallion on the case back - for me its a standout feature of the watches from the late nineties and early 2000s. Cheers JML
