Absolutely gorgeous both timepieces dear Nicolas...
... I would chose the PP, I´m so partial to chronos! An this PP chrono is simply superb. Not to say I don´t like the JLC, just thinking which one (only one) I would chose.
I kept thinking in your sentence: "these are pieces to admire, not to read the time". You described beautifully and in few words, the escence of our passion!!
Un abrazo con mi afecto Nicolas!

Sunday picture:JLC Duometre vs Patek 5070 - A Titans Clash.
Sort of.... Duometre Chronograph, black dial, white gold case / Patek 5070 G. One is in my dreams, the other is on my wrist. One is uber fine, the other is uber cool. Two " pleasure " watches, undisputably. Best, Nicolas...
Knowing you, I would say... Both. ;)
Same for me, by the way. Aren't we greedy? ;) Best, Kari. Nicolas
Two outstanding chronographs...
Thanks a lot for the nice picture of this duo! Handwind chronographs have the little something that make them attractive. Fx
This is a pair to own for sure.....
5070 being Uber Cool, of course, right? Beautiful pair.
Great pair......
sumptuous comparison...I would love to have both....I am only half way there...like you.... Its more difficult to get my fav 5070 than the Duo. the charm of the Patek is so great...The Duo is the Duo. Mo
It is one of my horological priority.
Certainly one of the watches I miss the most, in my collection and on my wrist. Now the question is which one, between this gorgeous Black dialed Chrono and the very tempting UTT... Both? ;) Best, Nicolas
I should have bought the 5070 when I could afford it...
...my salary has never caught up with the price increases of this model... :( Although I believe I would be equally happy with the Duo. The only thing I don't like from the Duo is the small dials, because of my poor sight. So I guess I should be content j...
I love your last sentence a lot, my friend Juan.
As for the small dials, I sadly know and live what you are meaning. But this is such an exceptional Watch that I can live with that. After all, we admire time, we don't read it... since a long time! ;) Best, Nicolas
Hi Nicolas No one can deny the strength of the two trade marks but my sympathy is for JLC
And i think you have it and would like to have Patek?is it?
I had both...
The only issue is that I was burglared soem three years ago, and that the Duometre was part of the stolen watches... Best, my friend. Nicolas
Aaaah Nicolas, between the two "mon coeur balance"..
but in the end I know it will lean to the left:) as I already have the "right" mouvement:) I really want to try this Duometre with the black dial...alas there are so many I would like to try:):) Cheers and thank you for the beautiful picture. Francois
They are playing in a different league.
Let's say that if I was after a fine chorongraph, then I would choose the JLC. If I am after a cool chronograph, with a lor of class, too, I would go for the Patek. AND, if I am the greedy guy I am, I wold go for both. ;) Best, Nicolas
LOL! But we all know that you are not greedy my friend :)
After all, who's greedy went it comes to Time-Pieces?:):) Cheers Francois
LOL! Blomman doesn't seem greedy from my view point....
he just gets whatever he wants:):):) Cheers my friend From "little greedy" Francois:)
I just keep coming back to this picture....
......of course, I have never owned the Duo and owned (but sold) my 5070G. As you know, I have played with the idea of getting a second 5070 to go with my P..... your picture goes a long way to deciding which 5070 would be a perfect match for the P. I kno...

Each of them is playing a different partition, as I wrote.
i would say that mechanically speaking, the Duometre wins. In terms of sophistication, too. But in terms of coolness, the Patek wins. So, you can't go wrong, here. Un abrazo, Amigo. Nicolas. " We don't read the Time, we admire it ". ;)
Beautiful Duometre chrono!
My chrono itch is starting again and the JLC Duometre Chrono is indeed a strong candidate should I get my first JLC! Thanks Nicolas for the pic and comparison. Cheers Robin
I have the weakness to think that it is one of the finest chronographs of the .
Current production. And one of the most original, too, mechanically speaking. Yes, you should! Best, Robin. Nicolas
