Jaeger Lecoultre Master Control Calendar on bracelet.
Besides the blue dial, there is another evolution the Master Control Calendar received, this year: A bracelet, which you can easily remove due to its quick change system.
Here are a couple of pictures I could take some months ago, at the Manufacture.
The Master Control Calendar Chronograph has it, too. I find the bracelet quite nice looking, but I m not sure it goes with the spirit of these two watches.
What do you think?
Best,

The bracelet itself isn't bad
But I agree with you on this one, it doesn't go too well with the watch. I'd rather have the leather strap.
It is a nice option although I also do prefer the leather strap.
Thanks to the quick exchange system it adds however versatility,especially for the many people who own just one good watch.
I prefer bracelets but on most JLCs..
Strap! On the MC line, i’m thinking beads of rice might suit it better? Only issue with that is it can be a period look a la 50’s or 60’s. That oyster-esque strap goes better with a modern Polaris imvho
I'm sure the bracelet's very well made, but convinced it goes with the watch
I tend to agree with your sentiments that it's rather against the spirit of the watch. Cheers JML
The bracelet appears to look better on the chrono which has a slightly 'sportier' character
this triple date moonphase is a 'dressier' watch, best on strap
For me
this watch combined with the bracelet looks very flat and monotonous. A leather strap would be much better.
Not sure if every watch needs to be offered a bracelet option, Nico.
But I could be in the minority here
