Another TT
You have to know that I was not that convinced by the first pictures I saw at my AD; but seeing it in the flesh several months later really did the job. Funny thing is that I keep wondering why this watch is so special. Can't point to any specific detail; it's just special in all its understated design; everything is just right to me, and that makes it a special watch. All of that besides the heritage of the original and of the JLC brand of course. To me it is all that JLC is about; and that is a lot!
Cheers,

Jaeger Lecoultre Geophysic Roll Call!
I am curious to see how many of us own a Geophysic, original, or Tribute(s), in their collection. There is one thing which always surprised me, related to the Geophysic. Original or Tributes, you will notice every kind of reaction, from the true and uncon...

I have the steel, " only ". But I am trying to find another one in steel, too.
For my " normal " dial. And, why not, a rose gold one. Wish you will get yours back soon! Best, my friend. Nicolas
The modern Tribute is already lovely ...
... but the vintage Geophysics are breathtaking in their beauty and charm! Especially the one with crosshairs... truly to die for. Nico, if I recall correctly you brought one of the vintage Geophysics when you were in Singapore last year? If so, I can cou...

I stopped by the NYC Boutique a couple of weeks ago. And put on the platinum piece. No, I did not walk out with it :-( Notice th two Reversos in the background! That enamel skeleton is beautiful. Th boutique inventory was deep. They had a Reverso Gyro. Wh...
Geophysic Yellow Gold, normal dial.

The Geophysic Crosshairs which broke the record at the Nov 2014 auction.

I have to compliment you on the choice of the strap, as well.
I like the Geophysic when dressed down, and I like it a lot. Best, Nicolas
A Tribute from NY
Hi Nicolas, What a great idea to do a community roll-call! Here's my Tribute to Geophysics in steel - bought in the recently opened JLC flagship boutique here in NY on Madison Avenue. Today's sunny view from the 45th floor, Chrysler Building A very nice c...
with this topic i'm definitely done.
I do not know whether to thank you or hate you. :P
TT Geophysic Platinum for me...
...because I couldn't get the vintage. Owning the original Geophysic 1958 is high on my list but right now this will do :) ...
I am not sure it is easier to find a platinum TT Geophysic than a vintage. ;)
Welcome here, and huge congratulations for having found this one! Looking forward to hear more from you, Thanks for attending to roll call. Best. Nicolas
The first pt...
and not from one of the regulars! Congrats and welcome here. Let's see more pics. :) cheers fernando
Beautiful Thread my friend! Though I´m a bit late... May I join? ...
... The vintage JLC Geo got all the charm only a true vintage watch can offer ... but as difficult and most possible out of my budget the original is, I opted for the Tribute as soon as I knew about its launching during the first months of last year 2014....
Thank you so much for attending the Roll Call, Amigo.
Superbly played! The Crosshairs dial, you have to get used to it to understand, accept, then fully enjoy it. I thikn the first reaction is to go for the " normal " one. But after a while, the Crosshairs is more than a second choice. Much more. Gracias, Am...
My pleasure to participate here my dear friend! Completely agree...
... with your comments regarding the cross hair dial! I envy so much your balcony Nicolas!! What a view! Thank you for letting me enjoy it! Un fuerte abrazo desde las Pampas del Sur! Abel.
Just in time or a bit late...?
Hi, Nicolas. Thank you very much for sharing fantastic photos and info of Geophysic(s) with us. I like the originals very much but so far have had no opportunities to meet them yet. Maybe, one day my time will come. :) Well, on the other hand, I enjoy the...
The sound of the rotor which makes smile.... Nicely put. ;)
Thank you so much for adding yours, T-Suke. Your day will come for a vintage one. It is a matter of patience. All the best, Nicolas
Wearing my Tribute as I type
..lying in bed with a stomach bug. :( I will have to post pics later, but it's the steel version which is resting comfortably on my wrist via its z-matten ammo strap. I love the versatility of this watch and already have several canvas NATO straps ready a...
Canvas...That is what I am looking for.
I find this is one of the coolest combination for this Watch. I would like to see if it will not be too thick, in Canvas, or if a conventional canvas strap woud not better do the job. Really curious. Yes, please, add some pictures of yours here! Best, And...
All I Can Say Is That I Wish...
... It was mine. Thanks for the great shots of the vintage, Nicolas. Beautiful! All The Best, My Friend. Have A Great Weekend! - Scott ...
As You Well Know, I Have Been...
Lusting after this watch since its release. It feels a lot like having an itch you can't scratch. - Scott
The " Sputnik " box and the famous warranty.
Let's remind that the Sputnik box was quite unique, as they were given with the Geophysic offered to the 2 Commanders of the USS Skate and Nautilus, in 1958. Other than that, I am not aware of other boxes issued for the Geophyics. ...
