Jaeger-LeCoultre

The 'million dollar' question....

 

I will have to physically try them and subsequently make up my mind. The 1921 in white gold simply because I don't think I can justify spending about $50K on the platinum version which I like the most. At that price point I'm going to get a high complication, not time-only piece. I love the rose gold equally, but I live in LA where I wear a formal suit about one-two times a year, I simply don't wear clothes that go with colored golds, irrespective of how much I like some of them.... Overseas - I debated this one recently so much that I had mild headaches. Do I want to spend $25-35K on a relatively speaking 'regular' dual time piece, or do I want to wait longer and get my grail (and I don't say that lightly, it's in my top 3 of all time) tourbillon for twice that price, but a watch I consider MORE than twice the timepiece horologically-speaking. Last, but certainly not least, Reversos - I like so many of them, but which ones do I absolutely LOVE!? The Gyrotourbillon 4 at $250K 😇, perhaps when I retire (another top 3 grail), The 'standard' tourbillons are over $100K and I like the Overseas tourbillon more, I loved the idea of getting a Septantieme like Nicolas had (I actually thought of buying it from him), but he ironically talked me out of getting that one!.... That's what's happening in my mind....
