You all know this watch: Or more dressy with its crocodile strap: There were some special EWC, in Limited Edition: - The Paris Boutique: ( Credit pic: Jester ) - The Emmanuel Coindre version: ( Pic : Ravination ) - The Rossi: ( Pic: Asi ) SS, RG or Platin...
The EWC is a watch to be seen in the flesh. As I previously wrote, I didn't like it on the pics, and even in the flesh, when I saw it first. Then, my mind changed... So, Truth is a very relative concept... Best, Nicolas
Speaking from personal experience, I didn't like the Patek Aquanaut in picture. And I still wasn't impressed when it was laid out before my eyes. I was prodded to try it on and all of a sudden the watch looked different on the wrist. It just grew on me......
In an airport lounge, looking at my EWC Rossi while typing this. This version is very interesting, almost make me want to get another one just for fun!
Funny how a dial makes a watch looking different. To me, the ruthenium dial works very well and nicely with this big watch. I saw it on the platinum Boutique Edition, and was already thinking the same, at this moment. In SS? Why not in Titanium? Do you im...
Nicolas, you should work for JLC's design department!! lol. What a great combination that would be, if the case looked like the Tides of Time EWC Alarm with this new ruthenium dial - WOW. Maybe I should hold off my next purchase for the time being and see...
Yes, it would be great to see such a combo. The weight will be fantasticly light, and the chromatic association certainly great. Sometimes, Dreams come true! Best, Nicolas
Thanks Nicolas for sharing the pictures. And yes, the ruthenium dials certainly look better in the metal. i just might have to head down to the boutique to check it out! Cheers, MosesL
To not only appreciate the ruthenium dial, but also the volumes of the watch, and its particular look, due to the letf handed location of the pushers and crowns. Special, appealing and spicy at the same time. Best, Nicolas.
I thought there might be yet another watch to add to the list. LOL. But I don't need a lefty EWC. Nice idea to add a south paw version of the watch. I think U.S. President Obama should have one now. The ruthenium dial is a nice change. Not crazy about the...
You tease me, David! LOL. Not to worry, both JLCs have been getting ample wrist time. Interestingly, the AMVOX has made me appreciate the EWC even more, and vice versa, for all their differences and similarities. I remain quite in love with the EWC as a w...
I'm sure both your wonderful JLC chrono's get ample wrist time. As for me, my daily wearer is generally my Squadra HT. Since I purchased my JLC, my Omega's don't seem to get any wrist time whatsoever. I am still deliberating about my next purchase, but I ...
The EWC was a bit misunderstood when presented the first time in 2005, certainly because it was a first for JLC to release such a big watch. BUT the EWC has some very interesting points, as a reliable caliber, a very solid construction, and friendly compl...
A bit too big for me personally, but it is a nice looking contemporary piece from JLC. Though the left-handed version is something new but obviously impractical to the many right-handed people out there, I think that the RG version with rubber strap would...
The Inverssor is a great variation of already great EWC. I actually like the very first one though. The color combination of regular production EWC rules against SEs, IMHO. One thing I do not like about EWC is some dots at odd positions. My question is wh...
this watch is, indeed, a watch to be considered... Why?... because i think that these rutherium dials are so cool... the appereance of this dials makes a new watch, a new concept for a watch... and I love this look. Between black and rutherium dials, gene...
I love JLC. I love the EWC. I have one word for this version: no. Please. This is all wrong: the modified seconds counter placed under the JLC name looks out of place, the 'leftie' look doesnt work (for me), and the name 'Inverssor' sounds sooo tacky. I c...
You express in a passionate way your opinion, and it is as valauable as those who like this watch. Therefore you explained why, which is important for all of us. Your answer helps to feel the watch, to weight it. Much better than a simply " I hate it ". T...
When you love a watch, why not saying it loud? When you don't why not the same, BUT, as when you love a watch, it is always better to expalin, to elaborate. And always in a polite way, which is your case. Best, Nicolas
