15 years ago when I had no idea that other brands existed outside of Rolex, the JLC Master Geographic was the first complicated timepiece I was ever exposed to... an 18 karat yellow gold limited edition sitting in the used case of a Rolex dealer. I marvel...  

For watches, Horology. An excellent Watch which was born at a time when this complication was not that common., if we can consider that this complication is common, nowadays. I never heard complains about that Watch. It is accurate and reliable. The bigge... 

It was one of my first "nice" watches that I purchased new many years ago. Mine is 38mm in rose gold and it is a nice size. I think the newer one looks a bit better, although I really like the hunter case back on my piece. If I were to get another though,...

Great nickname;) I'll call it "Ketchum" from now on:) Danke vielmals. Tchuss Francois from Down Under

.. on a personal note, this was my second JLC ( following a Reverso Duo) , 38 diameter/ ss. That was way back more than 10 years ago - and I still very much love her She still runs perfectly, keeps the time well and still has that low-key look, which I li...
