Here it is, in its new version.

Two détails which change, on the new version.
It adopts the round bezel seen on the most recent Duometres, the small cases in rose gold or white gold plain dials.
And the second difference will immediately jump to the eyes of the Quantième Lunaire lovers: The moonphase disc, which is laquered, now, not printed.
The first générations ( 2010 / 2011 ).
The latest, in the traditional 42 mm case.
You will remember that this moonphase disc has already been used... In the Duometre à Quantième Lunaire Enamel 40, 5.
The QL Enamel:
I am curious to hear your feelings on that modifications.
I am not very fan of the partially open dials on the right and left side of the dial, and would have much preferred a plain dial.
I am quite happy with the round bezel, but I also loved the flat one, so, not a big deal.
I prefer the laquered moonphase disc. I find it more qualitative.
It is up to you to discuss the Watch, now.
Best,
Nicolas

I am confused........
So are we announcing a 42mm Duo a QL or a new 40.5? Because in home page there are two posts;this one and one on the Ql 40.5 with a link that leads to this one. So a new 42mm QL with rounded bezel?( like the first 40.5,then the enamel but even the new Chr...
According to my informations, it is a 42 mm case.
I agree with you that waving in the style and in the diameter is not a clear message from JLC. I would rather prefer seeing them sticking to their model, or bringing some significative changes such as the QL enamel. I was sure you would say that, my frien...
If you make a list of the versions of the same models....
Duo a Chronograph rose gold 42mm: -Original version,then a different dial and texture,then a round bezel one,then one with apertures... Duo A QL rose gold 42mm: -Original version,then 40.5(ok this I accept even if i don t like it much in Rg,it makes sense...
I don't know what JLC have under their sleeve... Maybe it is time for them to unveil a new Duometre?
I mean a real new one? Best, Nicolas.
It looks attractive to me; thr round bezel & lacquered moon are assets.. The increasing trouble I have, is to keep versions/years defined & clear.. ;))
Thus, currently I am still confused, but on a higher level !.. - Thx for sharing (still didn\'t quite get, if it\'s 40, 40,5 mm or else).. Cheers & Best, hs
Incremental evolution ...
Always confuses us a bit but, no matter what version, the Duo is IMHO the most daring and beautiful watch that a non-billionaire can dream. Of course, I have my favorite, that is the chronograph. Moon phase seems to be way simple to this wonderful base mo...
The moonphase is a pretext here, the main goal of this Duometre being accuracy.
But I am sure JLC will be interested in reading how much people is confused with all these variations. Best, Nilo, and thanks for your input. Nicolas
It is utterly confusing, but the real pity is that there are no Duometres with WG cases with black dials in a 40.5 mm case!
If they had a QL or chronographe with those specifications, I would have got one yesterday!
The First Rounded Bezel...
It's excellent that we have posts to record small running changes to signature models like the Duometre. As with other prolific fast-changing model lines like the Extreme World Chrono and Amvox2, it eventually becomes necessary to aggregate all of the cha...
I am confused with so many variants but....
Very happily confused! The duometre is a mechanical marvel and a pretty one at that - be it the moonphase, chronograph or universal time complications. Hopefully there will be more 40.5 mm models as they wear pretty big Thanks Nico for the post and info C...
