Thanks for the warm welcome
What I'm enjoying on this watch are the details and the finish.
Those details and the finish makes my other watches feel very coarse except one or two.
As a sheer coincidence, my watchmaker just called.
My second (in fact my real first) JLC was resurrected and passed all tests.
It's a vintage (I believe from 60's) steel Memovox that was with him for months for cleaning and oiling (no other changes!!).
Stay tuned: pictures will follow soon.
Now the "moon" has some wrist competition.
Cheers,
Nilo
Master moon - My first entry on the JLC road
Team, Just got a Master Moon (140.8.98 S) and I'm very happy with my first JLC and my first dress watch. A simple question: (Yes, I did a search on this and other forums without getting a clear answer) How I can obtain a JLC buckle to use on an regular st...
Welcome to JLC, Nilomis!
And congrats to a beautiful watch! Triple date + moonphase, very nice complication Easiest I think would be to ask your AD or go for a no name buckle. Best Blomman
Great entry into JLC!
Congratulations! That is a superb piece, and one of my favorite JLCs. JLC just got this complete calendar with moonphse perfect. It is an utterly charming watch. i really like the black dial version in particular. I have never pulled the trigger ont his o...

Hi, I got a JLC buckle from the boutique. On another note, if you want to sell your deployment buckle, please PM me. --sancerre This message has been edited by sancerre on 2010-03-30 13:40:38
Nilomis, you just got a sublime Master Moon!
My favourite with this black dial! What a watch!!! As for the buckle, no problems, my friend. Go to a JLC Boutique or at your JLC AD, you will find one without problems. Enjoy your Beauty! Best, Nicolas
Thanks for the advise
In respect to the buckle, I believe that I need to live with what I got for a while. There are no AD (that I know) here and the nearest boutique is in ... Florida (just a 8 1/2 hour flight from here!). I will try to get one during my next trip. Cheers, Ni...
Great watch
Hi You've got a great watch there. Currently wearing the white dialed version - so slightly biased! The black dial looks superb. Enjoy your watch J
Congrats!!
Great watch and great pictures too. I have been looking for one on a bracelet......but wasn't able to find it yet. Best, Goh
Shorter strap
Congratulations on your new JLC & welcome to the club! I too have a small wrist and the deployant buckle wasn't comfortable at first. Instead of getting a buckle, I commissioned a shorter strap that positioned the deployant buckle in the centre of my wris...
+1 Shorter strap worked for my small wrist too..
Beautiful MM! One of my favourite classic JLCs. In fact I just advised a friend to buy one of these as his first JLC (and second "real" watch) - I thought it to be a safe advise as you simply cannot go wrong with this model IMO. Enjoy yours! Nikolaj
Buckles
Call one of the boutiques. They should be able to ship one to you. I know that the Beverly Hills boutique usually has them in stock.
Great choice
And IMO a much nicer watch than the newer Master Calendar is. This one has perfect proportions in my view. I have the silver dial version and in fact am wearing it today (on a blue croc strap now though). I agree with the others who have suggested that a ...
New Master Calendar
has a power reserve as well but the dial does not seem clustered because the day and month apertures are spread out to the side. The purpose of having the apertures on the side is that the chance of the hour and minute hands blocking is much less and it i...
such nice and charming watch...
.. Nilo, i really like your master moon. a month ago, at the time of buying my first Memovox, the seller was also selling this master moon in black dial. i was so tempted to get this one too, but did not do that because of limited fund at that time. very ...
