Jaeger-LeCoultre

Thanks for the coverage, Andrew!

 

I'd really like to see the Celestial piece in person.  The blue enameling (I think it's enamel.  Correct me if I'm wrong.) is gorgeous.  I'm with you on the Extreme Lab 2.  It's such an interesting and bold piece.  Thanks so much for the write-up and pictures!

Cheers,

Daos

Sorry not to have made it. I appreciate the photos; you've captured the ambience. If it's any consolation the 'project' is all the better for me not going. I hope to see you soon. Velociphile

I am rather new to watch collecting, and posting on forums. I look at watches such as are shown in the pictures, as well as my much less sophisticated Master Moon and feel that the human race can do beautiful things when it wants to. I am amazed at the be...

"My friends think there is something wrong with me ..." ... and they are probably correct. But you have come to the right place for support and counselling! Anyone who thinks that a watch has a soul is welcome here. Look forward to seeing your Master Moon... 

Welcome here!
