Hard to take too seriously...

...considering all of the iterations and watches that came before finally settling on these three. When I think about it, it seems more comical than serious.  LOL.  But I thank you for the kind words. Joking aside, I do get that this is a small but serious collection of JLCs, each one with an important place in JLC's modern history. 

And, seriously, it is so nice to hear from you, Ken.

Best regards,

It took me a while...

...to finally settle on a single Reverso, and the Rouge won my heart. Thank you, respo

Very well chosen trio

For me, it always seems to come down to selecting just the right version of a given watch, as you well know. Best, Robert

Quite a nice trio respo

The amvox has its style and is surely highly appreciated if your own style fits well together (not for me, I am more traditional). The Memovox Polaris reedition I really love it : probably the configuration that I prefer from the numerous recent / modern ... 

I made up my mind to choose just one...

...Reverso, and the Rouge seems to fit my wrist and my small collection the best. But I must admit, the TTP65 and the AMVOX2 were obsessions before they became mine, and they still control my emotions. I may feel the same way about the Rouge some day, but... 

The TT Polaris in steel....

Still haunts me.... Great trio, Respo! :) Best Blomman

It took me nearly 8 years...

...to curate this JLC collection. I am a slow worker. Thanks for looking, Blomman. respo

With out rush....

Quality will be there! :) Best Blomman

I see winners, here. The sensuality of the Red, the madness of the " 2 ", and the magic of

The TT Polaris 65... In steel... Superb Trio. Bravo, and thanks for posting, Respo. Nicolas

I can't believe how long it took me...

 
 By: respo : August 10th, 2015-10:25
...to land here with these three. Nearly eight years since I began my JLC journey. It was a torturous journey at times, but always a pleasant torture, for sure. These three represent my very personal take on what I love most about modern JLC -- with many ... 

And the color scheme coordination is superb.

i love the black red theme Best Joe

How did I know?

 
 By: respo : August 11th, 2015-05:13
I knew you would pick up on the color scheme, Joe. By the way, I think you might be able to join the trio party here...just sayin'. Best, respo

I agree with your approach. Still, I think there is some place for another essential piece

 
 By: amanico : August 10th, 2015-23:31
... I mean... The Duometre. Which one is another question, but at least one. ;) Best, Nicolas

As a lawyer...

 
 By: respo : August 11th, 2015-05:14
...and as Vlad, you could well make the case for the Duometre. ;-) Best, respo

... yes. =:)

Thanks.

It is an old JLC Manufacturer's Book of Timepieces catalogue. I am still searching for one from 2007 when the AMVOX2 first was listed. There is always something to hunt be it a watch or the books and accessories. :-) Best, respo

Pardon, but...
