Master (Full) Moon on Mid-Autumn Festival Day
A happy mid-autumn festival (or mooncake festival) to everyone who celebrates this day (I did celebrate when I was a kid. But now it is just an excuse to wear a moon phase watch!). This master moon reference with the German date variant is quite a fantast...
Nice !
It is very nice watch, coming from another era indeed. Is that the version with the officer case back? I kind of remember these times when JLC was making these classics, with a little bit of nostalgia must say. Wear it in best of health! Jerome
What a beautiful and classy looking Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Calendar

Thank you for all your kind comments!
@Jp75: Yes, this is the version with a hunter case back. While appropriate for this model, it ended up as the weakest aspect of this reference because the hinge could be more robust. It is actually not difficult to ruin it even for daily opening for admir...
A simple reason…
…if it is not regularly worn, there are three pushers—date, month and moonphase—that has different ‘do not set periods’. I have to retrieve the manual so digging out the thick dictionary like book does warrant for a special occasion 😅
I have the steel version & i have to get the manual each time too!
Had it over 15 years & still need to check! Though, once it's set it's a good excuse to wear it for an extended period Cheers JML
I thought I was the only one!
it is real confusing. I wonder if there is a code why the pushers are there they are…
I rather check & get it right though!
I get the impression that a lot of calendar complication watches take a bit of setting. There are a few exceptions though - there is the IWC perpetual where it's all done through the crown. Cheers JML
