The original MUT...
... may be found in several metals and several dial colours (the site 'fundi' will know better which combinations were issued). At least the WG was issued with a display back, if that is important to you. You have a small wrist, you say? The original MUT at 34mm could be worth a look.

Contemplating a new purchase
I have been lurking on this forum ever since I purchased the Master Control Chronograph boutique edition earlier this year - my first JLC watch. I have seen first-hand how helpful the folks are around here, so I was wondering if I could clarify something ...
Memovox or UIltra Thin, for me.
These 2 watches are so strongly linked with JLC 's History that the choice of any JLC lover is obvious. The appeal of the ultra thinness, or the friendly complication? Not that easy, because the good answer would be " BOTH ". If you can't afford both, the...
I have the MUT 38MM and also had MUT 34mm before
To me, the MUT is one of the iconic model of JLC, If one has to has one JLC(I doubt it since when one has one JLC one wants more), the MUT is a first choice. MUT is one of the finest ultra thin watch on the market for a very reasonable price. And you can ...
Have you considered the Reverso line?

The Reverso is in my thoughts
Thanks Ruckdee, I have in fact thought about the Reverso line previously, and that was going to be my first JLC watch. Unfortunately, having tried the Reverso GMT (and some others), I noticed that it did not sit well on my hand as it's oversized for my sm...
I see. If the XGT size is too large to be comfortable...
...the GT sized Reverso Duo should be just perfect. Trust me. Find one near you and try it on. It will sit just right on your wrist this time. Ruckdee
Jagers are additive
Friend, one bitten forever possessed, I thought I could never wear anything over 40 mm, the I went to a 42mm, and I wear the 44mm AMVOX2, size is just getting use to. My tip, if the watch is big ot should be worn snug else it tends to float on the wrist, ...

To answer the question...
In the '90's, the MUT was a solid back. In '99, the "Master Black" series debuted with an exhibition back. The MUT silver dial with exhibition debuted in 2001 (IIRC). That's why you see both. The older solid back had one advantage: more resistant to magne...
