The JLC chronograph is fantastic

That sector dial is very cool. On this particular piece, the hands make for easy viewing of the chronograph registers since they are unfilled.
One of my favorite watches is the original Master Compressor Chronograph. This movement is reliable and accurate. I prefer having the running seconds at six, which many of the newer JLC watches omit.

Said to be made for only one year, to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Master Control, this version is uber cool. The Syringe hands are not much my taste, I would rather see them filled with lume, but hey, not a deal breaker for me. Not in my collect...  

Agree with you on this one....

Hands are not ideal, but overall one of JLC's better efforts. Would love to see one in the metal. Darren

I initially saw this as a β€œbudget” piece. I have now determined that this is a JLC, through and through. Maybe not my most preferred β€œdesign language,” but it works!!

Better use of words Counselor!!!

I've dithered the last two years over this watch. The feel of the chrono pusher is sublime. My only issue with it is the lack of running seconds. Perhaps that may not bother you if you keep the chrono running. Just putting it out there and I cannot rule o... 

Here is my views of it when I got mine

The box don't tell us much. The logo reveals what it is and I guess some is familiar with it. Yes, it's a full set that only miss the watch so I have to see if I can find it. I do and now we getting closer. The crown has the logo too and here we can see i...  

Syringe hands belong to this watch!

Let's just agree to disagree...
