Almost a prosecution's summing up, but fair enough... Alas.

Morning Trilogy: Three JLCs with two barrels

It's been a while since I've posted anything... Lack of time, other things that occupy me, few/no new models that make me vibrate... except vintages. But here I am again with the desire to share these three JLC with double barrels. The Duomètre A Chronogr...  

True… three pieces from Jerome Lambert era

Continue to wear them in the very Best of your health ! Best, PS: A little Q, out of curiousity and if allowed - were you the privileged person to pick-up (or lend) Nicos Titanium Master Minute Repeater, or are/were you the lucky and happy person to own a...

It is indeed the MR of Nicolas that I have the chance to have on my wrist for a few days. If my post suggests otherwise I'm sorry. It's not mine (yet)...😬 Only the two duo are mine (yet) 😂 The MR will return to Nico’s wrist tomorrow after a week on mine. ... 

Thx for your comment !.. So we are in the same boat, sort of.. I also had it on my wrist for an afternoon with Nico in Paris.- was mesmerized !

As Humble Me, I deem myself lucky, to „at least“ own the A Chronographe, which I dearly love ! Would be most desirable & appreciated if LGM would come up with a new Duomètre family member.. Thx again for your fine picture- lineup and your remarks ! Best &... 

I think that your wish for a new Duometer will soon be granted by La Grande Maison...

News on this point should not be long in coming... Let's hope that we will not be disappointed... because the wait has been long... PS Having a Duomètre is already a chance ! Best Ø

Amazing trio. The Duometre line was so very strong.

JLC doing what it does best, fine engineering and innovation. I miss the Lambert era too. We have been stuck for quite a few years with not many interesting releases, a stagnation of sorts even while the watch market thrived. I really enjoyed your post. T... 

Thanks for your kind words.

Your comments are, unfortunately, totally accurate... The Manufacture - except for very high quality watchmaking pieces - has lost its way. Certainly, the quality has improved, but for me at the expense of its poetic soul: Today's products are very/too cl...
