Jaeger Lecoultre Master Ultra Thin 39 Black Dial, our next PuristS' watch?
Nov 09, 2018,07:49 AM
No pressure, here, at we have to think about everything, but I have an idea I want to submit to you before deciding anything.
Here is the MUT 39 Jubilée, unveiled in 2013, and the rose gold version, which came just after.
Let's keep the case, which is spectacular in 39 mm with this very thin profile, " couteau shaped ", 4, 05 mm high, its movement, the Cal 849 which is a superb manual winding movement.
Now, let's work on three options: First, the hands, leaf shaped ala MUT 39 Enamel Grand Feu...Instead of the Dauphine hands.
Second,let's change the color of the dial and let's opt for a black one.
Third, an option: Solid case back, or see through? The solid case back will help to keep the ultra thin height. With a see through case back, we'll probably have a 1 mm thicker case.
No black enamel, even if it would be a dream, but the idea is to maintain the cost below 10 K Euros, to allow most of us to get one.
Steel case, for the same reason.
Special engraving on the case back?
What do you think?
Would you be in?
Once again, it is just to test the waters, before deciding anything.
Because I have one or two other Jaeger Lecoultre suggestions, in my tortured mind...
Looking forward to reading your comments and thoughts,
Best.
