I agree ...
Fernando,
The DSA is a beauty.
The only negative (if I can say that) related to the movement, caliber 956, that has only 45 hours of power reserve, when compared to the chronograph offerings.
Since this will be the main acquisition of 2014, I want to examine all pros and cons before closing any deal.
Today I go to stop over the JLC boutique and compare those "in metal".
Cheers,
Nilo
Another This Or That
Team, I decided that my first watch of 2014 will be a JLC. I'm doing a small reshuffle on my small stable and I can get one of those. The big question is what should I pic (only one, of course): 1) Memovox Tribute to Deep Sea ref. 2028470 Pros: Iconic, al...
Easy for me: TT DSA.
The reporduction of an icon, and an Alamr Watch ,which, believe me, is much more trustful than your Phone Alarm. At least, you won't depend of a battery to Wake up! And it is much sexier than a Cell Phone! Best, Nicolas.
Any experience with the three sub dialed chronograph?
I'm curious to learn more about this movement. Cheers Nilo
+1 on DSA - "EU"= Less is more+ Icon ..If Chrono, 2 counters..
- That was for the "DSA" famille.. JLC Home- time not a bad choice, simple; how much needed 2nd time ( other travel watches ?) Just my humble 2 cents Good luck and happy reasoning ! ;) Best, hs
The 1 2 3 4 order was defined by ...
The technology "goblins" that lurks into my computer and on PuristSPro servers. Captured the pics (forgot to state that they are from JLC site - fixed), dropped on the uploader and voila, they showed up in that order. Cheers, Nilo
Agreed
Agreed on the 1,2,3,4. But ahead of all of them would be the Tribute to Polaris, in platinum, but I'd settle for steel. Wondering why the Polaris is not on your radar? Dean
Could be ...
If the FF was less than 42mm (my limit). The recent (Bathiscaphe) is not inspiring IMHO. Cheers, Nilo
Any considerations about this one?
Team, My wife and daughter are unsure about those four watches. Browsing JLC web site they landed on this one, ref 153847N: Anyone has experience with this model? Thanks, Nilo ...
Number 1 fr sure..... This chrono could be a contender but... That date!
I start sounding like nico now:) Mo
If only it was not badged Aston Martin...
JLC was very smart to " sink " the date with a black background... A very nice version, but I wouls still prefer the TT DSA... Best, Nicolas.
I would pick the simplest dial...
but that's just my personal preference. :) I find it to be timeless and hardly boring. Good luck in your decision. Took a quick WS for you: cheers fernando ...

Trying to decide - Visit to the boutique ... harsh
Team, Today I went to the JLC boutique and ... 1) Fancy and majestic. 2) The candidates "in metal" 3) Sitting on one of those chairs and ... decisions ... decisions ... The TT DSA "in metal" Is a very nice piece but I was expecting a little more. The stra...
Tough Decision, but a good one
I would have to say the TT DSA for me. I love the sometime, but as you say I don't own an Aston Martin, nor do I plan to...so for me that is out. The TT DSA is just a classically beautiful watch and something you will be proud to own now and years down th...
Forget the strap on the TT DSA, this is the weakest part of the watch.
As for the small pin buckle, it is faithful to the original, which doesn't let place for the JLC engraving. But if you are not convinced, you has taken the right decision, which is to not decide anything! :) Best, Nilo, and thnks for the update! Nicolas
TT DSA
one stupid question re the TT DSA... Jaeger has not sold the initial 959 model yet ?(or re-issue ? but never heard about it)
I think they are all sold out. I mean that they were all produced.
But you can still find a few at some ADs or Boutiques. Best, Nicolas
Of the two first...
You have to ask yourself which function you prefer. Both are wonderful watches. As for the third - tthatone has nothing to do with Deep Sea IMO. Best Blomman
Decided ... I'm back to the JLC kingdom ...
I'm preparing a post explaining my line of reasoning. The post Should be here by Wednesday. Can anyone guess what I ended with? Stay tuned. Nilo
You are so attracted by modern watches, Nilo. And this one
Certainly has the more modern look among those mentionned in your list... ;) Easy! Best, Nicolas
I would have said the 2 Dials chrono. Not too late to change your mind for I win vs Nico!
Just kidding of course, congratulations Nilo :)
Not a fan of branding
same thing I said about the Master Home Time. I would buy it in a heartbeat if not the Aston Martin thing. it could be the perfect travel watch!
Thanks for sharing your opinion, Ali.
This is an interesting and passionate discussion we laready had and still can have, there: We cannot be fan of co branded watches, because in most of the cases, it is just a double signature on the dial, without something special. But when it comes to a v...
memovox tribute to deep sea
brother, as i owner of a memovox i strongly suggest it for you, its an amazing watch. my son and my daughter loves the alarm hehehe... regards cesar
Another +1 on T-DSA- EU ! .. A classic with a great DNA .. :)
.. but I understand your pragmatic decision for practibility with "some" relation to the pedigree although there never was a historic forerunner Enjoy yours and wear her in the best of your health ! Greetings, hs PS: .. But I know your decision is already...
