I've been eyeing to get back in the JLC game - after previously owning the Valentino Rossi EWC. This piece ticks a lot of boxes - heritage, design, complication, understated ness, utility - and I am hoping to see one soon. Like others it's been hard to find one in boutiques (they tend to be presold) but I was recently able to find one after digging a bit.
I get a sense my collection is moving toward less "bling" and more classic understated pieces. I had in previous posts dabbled with Sapphire, Bronze, and other fun materials but I have returned to classic pieces.
If anything - I did speak to a JLC rep and they oddly said it was ok to do recreational diving (like 18m) and will likely try it.
Wish me luck!
