Jaeger Lecoultre Master Compressor Extreme World Alarm Tides of Time Edition.

Sep 18, 2021,21:08 PM
 

Launched in 2009 a few years after the Extreme World Alarm, this Tides Of Time has the good idea to associate an Alarm to a World Time. Its vey big case had the good idea to be made in titanium. 


The movement is the Cal 912, which gave birth, in 2008, to the Calibre 956 which we well know, nowadays. This was the first JLC Alarm movement to allow a quick setting of the date! 








I said it many times when I posted this watch, but I will say it again: I would love to see a new version of an alarm and world time watch, from Jaeger Lecoultre. 

You? 

Best,

Nicolas

Hope they bring it back. This is one sweet piece.

Me too. Definitely!

But I am not a fan of the dial design of the shown version.

+1 on both counts.

The dial is a happy mess. Cheers Marc

For many years, it was the only JLC sports watch that I owned. The boxed set was very special and came in a handsome wood box with both a leather strap and a rubber strap. The leather strap included a deployant, and the rubber strap included a pin buckle....  

And the book, too!

There was a rare conservation-themed book that was issued with the watch, and not all buyers received the book. I collected it a few years down the line. In the back, there is a DVD with the face of the watch printed on its face! ...  

I have this one, too!

It is one of those watches that surely not everyone will like..

but for me it is representative of an era in JLC and for sure this watch does not leave anyone indifferent. We are talking about a 2009 watch, with a super cool alarm and a world complication, with a lot of character and personality. Just like the persona...  

Love this monsters from JLC
