Jaeger Lecoultre Meteorite dials: Are you in?
I have some fantasies when it comes to watches: Tantalum, Rattrapante, and Meteorite dials...Jaeger Lecoultre had some meteorite dials. Too few, if you ask me. The Master Calendar: And this special version of the Gyrotourbillon Three. Would you see more l...
yeah...
that was a strange time, a half hearted attempt at exotic Reverso dials for the gents...the use of meteorite and aventurine was a great idea except why the big circle of grey in the middle!?
PS I found the Reverso Meteorite, it is part of the Atelier Reverso. I could only take pictures of the Green, never of the Meteorite.
The only issue? The nice dial is on the verso, not the recto... ...
I'm in!
It was when I found myself lusting after a Rolex that I knew there was something particularly magical about meteorite dials. I normally steer well clear of the brand, but the 126719BLRO press shots hooked me in with an apparently iridescent face. I've bee...
I like the darker over lighter, and the whole package for the Gyro (combination of materials, colours) is superb.
But then the Rolex GMT which is light in colour seems to really work for me. Overall however, it’s not something that excites me much. I’m still very much on the “mother of pearl for men” train !
The Gyrotourbillon 3 is beyond compare.
It's like something modern from JRR Tolkien. If Gandalf came from middle earth to make the coolest modern watch he could, well. . . . . That would be it.
The past photo is really great
I have never seen before this elaboration for such a minute click, with a complex spring and its own pivot, jewel and cock. Not that it counts, from a practical point of view, but it is nonetheless beautiful. Thanks for these. Keep them coming. Hagwe ever...
I am trading in for a Jules Audemars dual time in rose gold/black dial, solid back case. Against a minor premium to the dealer.
Undervalued against overvalued. This is what I try to do. Except for vintage (😩)
Ups sorry wrong thread Nico
I think they did a great job on the Master Controls. Which one do you think? I would say on the new chrono calendar if I have a say. Might end up being too cluttered. Maybe in a blackened meteorite with black subdials in. SS case. PS Can someone delete my...
Yeah. It’s a great complication. Well done JLC
But the design lacks a little edge maybe. Meteorite might do the trick. Or maybe a black dial version.
Wow! I didn't realize the bridges had...
meteorite cut and placed into them. That is so cool...and so difficult to execute, I imagine! -Dean
Sorry to dwell on this
But that gyrotourbillon 3 is truly a brilliant composition. The mix of gold, blue, etched meteorite with gold chatons is magical.
Yes Yes Yes
Pls post more of these...they inspire pure lust. I am smitten by the meteorite dial.
