I got to start all over again.

Some of you may read my previous post of searching for an alarm watch.

Read Home.watchprosite.com /

At the end I am quite sure I came to the conclusion I would have the MC Memovox as my next piece.

Then I went to Switzerland for vacation with a little side detour for watches. In one of the shop ... ... guess what? they have one brand new!

I try it on and OMG! The watch did not speak to me like I imagine.

Do you all have similar experience? Is it common?

Quite a heart wrench for me, I am so sure that ... this would be it ... then ... BOOM! Back on surface, down like a falling rock. Now back to square one. Vintage maybe?

But the sound of the MC Memovox sound so ..... Arrgh!

I can't focus anymore. I need to go chill out a bit. Going to my chocolate MUT for some soothing.

Of course, this kind of things happens.

And more than you can imagine, hence the advice which sounds like a broken record : Do never make a decision ( good or bad, by the way ) on a watch, without having seen it in the flesh. Well, if you love the Alarm on a diving watch, you have other choices...

Tyler, you have some nices watches in which to find solace

including that beautiful MUT in RG and chocolate. And luckily JLC offers a wide range of alarms if you seek that complication and from this brand. The Compressors are not for everyone -- and maybe that is what didn't work for you? Anyway, I think this has...

Ah yes, the Polaris

I am charting in to dangerous water now. As I found out I really don't have any non-sport type black dial watch. The MMI looks tempting but the Polaris .... the 65' .... in Steel! Dilemma Dilemma. Tyler

Sad to hear this, Tyler

The MCM is one of my favourite JLC’s, my beater! May I ask; What was it that made you think this would be the one? What was it that put you off? If we know this, maybe some of us may point you in the right direction… When it comes to alarm watches JLC hav...

Thanks Blomman, I got shock

when I put it on. I hold the watch in my hand and something is not right. I love the MC line, The built, the compression key and the dial. Then as I wear the watch. The dial seem a little too busy and thickness is hard to ignore. I made up my mind on the ...

OK, Tyler.

I see your point. If it’s a modern JLC sports watch with alarm you are after then the thickness will be a problem. The MCM and AM I are about the same thickness. The Pola and NSA are even thicker. And I think that goes for almost every brands sports watch...

I forgot the EWA has the semicircle too.

Looking at your wristshot really does made my wonder I should give it a second try. I am considering a few options. I saw TTP 65 in Platinum once in JLC Boutique. To my surprise when I put it on it doesn't feel all that big. I can really feel the weight t...

Just to mention…

The TTP both 65 and 68 are great watches! But, as a beater – do have in mind that they have plexi dooms and not crystals… Please keep us posted! Best Blomman
