Janek is a true gentleman, as well as Olivier, Ken.
Throught this interview, you were able to feel what is so particular, with JLC.
The people working in or for this manufacture are accessible, disponible.
Janek told you an important thing , he travels to meet what people, journalists think, like or don't like.
JLC listens, which is an important virtue, to me.
Now, you got a scoop, Ken: ' We are working on the next Duometre to come in 2 years...".
No more informations?
Thanks a lot for this interview, Ken.
Best,
Nicolas.
A special session with Mr. Deleskiewicz & MGT GC Venice Edition!
My JLC fanatic friend and I were invited by Mr. Olivier Laurian, Brand CEO of JLC Japan, to a special session with Mr. Janek Deleskiewicz, the Chief Designer (Directeur Artistique & Design) at Jaeger-LeCoultre. We were given the opportunity to see the Mas...

Thanks a lot, except.....
Hi, Thanks a lot for your report, except for this picture of a Geophysique, that watch that I can't get to forget! Cheers Dje...
Sorry, my bad....
I meant to write "original Geophysique" , not "priginal" Sorry for the typo Ken
Well, there may be a 2nd...
He said that he likes the Reverso Moonphase. Is that the new SunMoon, or something to be launched in 2011? -Dean
LOL... That is exactly why they don't like to answer to questions...
All our guesses are felt like extrapolations on the models to come. Best, Nicolas
Yes, indeed....
I was so impressed that I bought one yesterday on impulse (no, not MGT GC!). Umnn, he may have mentioned about the timing of the next Duonetre as "in two years or later...". Hehehe, forgive me for not getting more concrete info Seriously, it is really imp...
But what did you buy, my friend?
Now, I'm curious... Knowing your fine taste in watches, I just can't wait to see it, even if I have a small idea. Best, Nicolas
Hahaha... Discontinued model, but not that old!
I just got bitten by the bug, having met Mr. Designer of the brand. I had been eying on a difficult to find piece, but luckily just found and bought it on impulse Stay tuned.... Ken
Nooo... Don't tell me you found a Reverso Platinum Tourbillon ...
Skeleted, or not... Yeees? Nooo? Come on! Best, Nicolas
Umnnn. Don't blow your imagination now, Nicolas :-)
It tends to burst in tears.. C'mon, I am still a beginner of JLC and the one I found (although rare) is SS model... Will show you in a few days! Ken
Quid pro quo..
ask him to reveal his latest ALS first Ken. Enjoyed the interview! fernando
Oooh, something nice, my friend...
And I think YOU know this piece, as we were in contact about it... Best, Nicolas
Thanks for the great report
This is the stuff we love to read and see, no? The photos are amazing, too. You got to see some realy beauties. I was interested in what he had to say about the size of JLC watches: JD: Many brands wanted to make big watches – 45mm, 46mm, or even larger. ...
Oops, that I don't know....
Maybe lost NOT in translation (as the conversation was totally in English) but he may have forgot to mention.... Yes, he does listen to the market and I was so impressed. Also, sorry, I can't answer your next question, either :-( Hahaha, don't tell anybod...
very well done for this 30mins interview...
... from this 30mins interview, we can learn interesting viewpoints and development process from this conversation. these thing are hardly found from the official materials. look forward to seeing the next Duometre. thanks for the great interview. stefan
the 4S of successful interviews -short sweet sharp simple
thks fr sharing, just curious, how "big" is JLC in Japan? is there a huge following amongst the collectors, or is it still a patek n lange game?
Nice read Ken
Thanks for the report. He is certainly one of the JLC stalwarts and a real gentleman. Curious about the extent of his involvement in the design process now. Is he only involved in the 30,000 ft decisions and the details are filled up by others or does he ...
I didn't ask that question....
...but the impression is that he does high-level design and concept while overseeing his staff who does the detailed work. He called the"team" including his design stuff, enamel craftmen, watchmakers "each artist" and it seems to show that he trusts each ...
