Steel for me .....
for somebody who is big into "tourbillions" the natural reaction to a steel ( affordable ) version would of course be a CRIME ! Just think about all those money he has spent and now they make it in steel for less than half the price ?
But for someone who doesnt already own tourbillions , having a nice affordable piece in SS is a refreshing thought indeed !
Just my 2 cents . Its essentially the same watch in different metals so its not as subjective as comparing 2 different makes .
Follow your heart !

JLC Master Tourbillon dilemma...... (Steel V Rose)
well... i think its about that time, getting my first tourbillon and ive debated between quite a few brands and settled on the "jlc Master Tourbillon" first of all, a "see thru" tourbillon is a must for me which cancelled out quite a few competitors but t...
pics..
ideas about difference... i prefer white metals w/ blue accents, makes the steel nice.. but the hands are not blued.. and therefore do not contrast the dial.. ?hard to read? the gold has contrasting hands.. but has a red accented date hand and blue accent...
very sorry about triple post
my mind is everywhere and i keep forgetting details... on the seconds hands above the one is blue and the other two are polished.. (very nice) but on other pics from JLC i see that they are all blue and one just has a lil point at the end (confusing) if i...
And you forgot the platinum version
Which is also an interesting solution...But a bit pricey... So between the SS and the Rose Gold, which one? One is " affordable" and price apart, it's also, IMHO, the most coherent in a chromatic point of view, with these little and subtile but nice touch...
questions and comments
both steel and god are very affordable. I find the platinum a lil over the top. As far as hands I was referring to the three prong seconds hand. Some versions have 1blue and 2 polished. Others have all three blue. As far as the hour/minute hand they are a...

tourbillon
i think im going to order the steel, and then i figured if i wasnt happy the gold is only slightly more.. its just crazy how the gold is so little more... normally gold is double or at least 50% more. riley
question regarding seconds hands......which one is "new"???????
if i order a steel master turb, will it come with A: or B: i prefer the one blue hand as it tells the seconds easier.... ive seen both examples and now i found pic showing each... in this instance the steel had the single blue hand.. but in other pics i n...
I would say that this time the marginal cost of gold is normal...
Hi, Watchmakers generally charge too much for gold over steel. So the difference here is already a lot, specially thinking that the calibre is the same and the calibre cost is supposed to be the main cost of the watch. Regarding hands colours, the pics sh...
Here are some other pics of a pink gold Master Tourbillon
Hi, Here are some pics of a Master Tourbillon in pink gold (but again a prototype, looking atb the seconds hand). It is real life pics on my wrist (or nearly ): jlc.watchprosite.com Cheers Dje
i wish their was a way i could get blued hands and the prototype seconds hand
how did you manage to get the prototype seconds hand? is their a way i could send it into JLC to get that style? the next best thing would be hands finished like my squadra.. or even blued like my grande date.. but i kno that would never happen :-(
