That’s a keeper

One cannot find it easily even on the used market. A true keeper. I wish I had the option to purchase this rare beauty when it was still in production, but fate was not on my side.


I have been lucky though, to be blessed with the plain true seconds, which I occasionally admire the mechanism behind it. No idea why they even discontinued this series - it is technically so impressive, and showcases the brand in an intelligent way. 

They should have expanded on this series slowly, releasing new interpretations of the seconde morte, and discontinuing pieces, not the whole collection. I would have loved to see true seconds chronograph (a monopusher will be more impressive) and a true seconds anti-magnetic piece, or even one with some scientific chronometric theory behind it, such as resonance, fusee-and-chain, toubillon cylindrique, XL balance wheel etc.

Lately intricate dial designs have caught my attention and this Jlc ticks all the boxes at a surprisingly reasonable price point. The deadbeat seconds complication is quite interesting but to be honest I could live without it. Other that that I think it’s...

If this model had been w/o deadbeat seconds....

This and the steel version would have been highly sought after. Dean

That strap matching your Geophysic

Great strap. Your Geophysic have a good detailed world map of the northern hemisphere. The blue on the dial is perfect, matching the stap perfectly.

Very nice. I have mine on a less eye-catching blue strap.

A blue strap works very well with this piece.

Nice for casual !
