I know it is not conventional and the sound is probably not as pleasing as the JLC MMR but it just makes more logical sense and easier to determine the time as well. I currently have a standard Zeitwerk in WG with black dial and was considering either to sell or trade it towards a Zeitwerk MR but the JLC MMR has always been a watch on my radar as well. It just seems everytime I think about the MMR I get distracted by other pieces :-(
