Jaeger-LeCoultre

The unveiling of a collection, in such conditions, is not an easy exercise. What to do? How the message will be welcomed when most of the people is living such an extraordinary moment, lockdown, fearing for their health and seeing Economy going down in a ...  

i like the Master Control Calendar Chrono - with the splash of blue hands...very well played. also the MC Date - very very good daily beater i would say. in all cases...the only think that irks me is the 'automatique' Thanks for sharing Nico ! Best, mahes... 

i also think the pricing is very well done... !

I am really in love with these updates. JLC could not have done much better - bravo! I am particularly in love with the Chrono Calendar, a fantastic yet affordable piece. They have not done any shortcuts here, by improving almost every detail. This is qui... 

We see in Carlifornia with a general ban. Just A few years ago, this piece would have gotten a gator strap for sure.

More casual style.

A very compelling watch. I just wish the profiles of all of these would be slimmer, a complaint that I also had with the predecessor calendar and geographic pieces.

I think I really really like the Master Control Chronograph Calendar. I need to see it in metal

JLC has done a fine job updating the Master Control lineup. The 3-hand/date and chronograph calendar models are my favorites. Thank you for the thorough review. M4

The question is to know if we are not expecting a bit more. Anyway, this is the perfect type of watch for a special W&W and a special period... I mean a transition period Thanks Fx

Only 2 small points of critic / - Off center crown but less visible (on the MC Date and the MC Chrono) - And previous mentioned Automatic script on the dial (but no deal breaker) Love especially the Chronograph Calandar and the MC Calandar. Well done Jaeg... 

Great review Nico! That Chrono Calendar and the Calendar both in RG really pop with the red day/month. Love the order where you leave the best till last!

I’d love a new designed sport line, with Chronograph, gmt or time only

First, I do understand that there were improvements made aesthetically and technically. I commend JLC for at least doing that. From these new releases for men in the Master line I prefer the new Master Chronograph Calendar as it combines the most practica... 

This year has been crazy so far with COVID-19. I was hoping to see something which could turn it around a bit 😁😉

Ha ha... the wait continues friend.

This time round or later in the year?

I just want to see some new Duometres. Don’t we all. We have waited long enough.

Nothing to really raise the passions here, but a solid effort by JLC. A refresh of a core product line such as the basic Master series of watches is always welcome, if done right. And JLC mostly seems to have gotten it right. It is disappointing that JLC ... 

Which are too close to the 70 hours of the new movements? As for your design suggestion, I cannot agree more. 12 + JL + Jaeger Lecoultre, there is one line which is too much. I agree with your suggestion! And as for the Reverso, I am in total agreement. T... 

another one I'd love to see improve is the MASTER ULTRA THIN PERPETUAL, I don't appreciate the moonphase. The new one is more beautiful.

But I’m 100% satisfied by the dial ...  

I’m not pleased with the hands, the font used and the moonphase. We are very closed to my perfect QP from JLC.

In my opinion, this is long overdue and a big plus for those of us who like tinkering with straps (which is all of us, right?) Kudos to JLC for this customer-friendly touch. M4

I for one know that I NEED the MC Calendar. Love everything about it and it solved my issue with the older version where we had four lume plots with no lumed hands lol. Any idea if the dates jump between the regular days and what’s the accuracy of the Moo... 

The MUT Moonphase guilloche had an updated movement with a new Moonphase that’s accurate to one day every 122 years. I was wondering if this one got the same moon accuracy update.

Well maybe the red reverso for a wife as a Condition Precedent before the my purchase after exciting launches form everyone come out

😀

is a real beauty. Especially in this gold alloy. I have no problem with the “automatique”. Yes, this information on the dial is not necessary and redundant, but it fills the space on the subdial in a perfect way which looks much better for me than it woul... 

Especially the Master Control Chronograph is really nice.

The aesthetics of this outstanding line were never exactly my cup of tea, but I have a lot of respect for this collection and some of its past standouts, like the Master Ultra Thin. The incremental improvements made by JLC will hopefully to bring a new ge... 

Am I the only one disturbed with the position of the crown in the profile photos?

...there are two minor things I dislike. The seconds hand should be silver (I suppose they did it blue for symmetry) and either For 30 pulsations in french or automayique in english. Anyway I can not stop looking at it😃😃

I am liking this direction a lot! The triple calendar is a winner for me. I love the date indicator jump “15-16@ - very cool! Can’t wait to see them in the metal! Thank you for the comprehensive review!

I always thought the day of week complication was more suited for retirees or those living a life of leisure but after a couple weeks of pandemic lockdown I am absolutely starting to lose track of the days 🙄 Thanks for posting the detailed pics! The updat... 

I am particularly drawn to the Master Calendar Chronograph. Is it the first time JLC put this up this combo-complication ?

I like the date ring marker and the idea of the jump across the 15 and 16th. Of course the Chrono calendar looks incredible as well. Well done JLC! Interesting they used the blue hand for the running seconds as well as the 30 minute timer. Both pieces are... 

For one, the case was due for a refresh a long time ago and I’m glad they did it this time and with a longer power reserve even if that wasn’t a problem for me. The calendar is my favourite and the JLC logo as the date pointer is a very nice touch. I can ... 

for a new 36 to 37mm Master Ultra Thin (40mm is too disproportionate for an MUT) steel version, and a 39mm Memovox (hopefully in burgundy colour).

hands blue rather then heat them blue ?

...had a 12hour chrono scale instead of the running second! I really do not understand this functionally inferior configuration! Especially since the last Master Chronograph had a 12h stopping scale! So the chrono will not be on my list but the full calen... 

I ask for either NO DATE OR (I would prefer this) Use the dial at 6 to contain BOTH a circular calendar like the Chrono tri-cal... AND An HR counter.... within... Ohhhhh... that would be SOOO hard to resist, no??? Would this not be the most perfect JLC CH... 

My personal preference is a black dial will make it exceptionally attractive. The reverso red wine for the ladies seems too little too late.

...lots to digest!

No message body

Hi to all ,my name is Julius, I’m new here and must say I love this wonderful forum.I was watching the beautiful pictures of the new JLC watches and I couldn’t not notice on Master Control Chronograph Calendar that lume plot at 9 o’clock is well off cente... 

This is something I will see in the details when I am able to see the definitive watches, in the real life, and not only these official pictures. Best and congrats on your MC Diving Chrono! Nicolas

Thank you for your prompt response,I think that even when you’ll see the watches in real I doubt you’ll see the same watch that appears in the pictures ,so what I’m saying is that in any case something like this should not appear in JLC official reliese p...
