This is one of the first watches I noticed ..
in the boutique as I am quite partial to black dials and it does stand out from the crowd. It's always a danger to collect something and walk out with something extra.
In this case I think you did good as it looks great on your wrist.
Congrats!

When 1 becomes 3
The results of impulse and lack of self control, plus a deep black beauty and very well balanced dial... I had good news from the JLC boutique that my Reverso GT was back from service. Great news! So I went to collect it with my Nomos on the wrist. Then a...
Congratulations, Richard. A serviced watch back home, a nice Nomos, and a great catch!
This Black Master Control is eye catching. Not the most popular, but that's also why I like it. Bravo! Best, Nicolas

Thanks. It is special...
and I especially like that it doesn't have any additional text aside from the brand on the dial. No "Automatic"!
Yes!
I\'m a fan. My only criticism is the size of the movement compared to the case and the consequent positioning of the date window a bit further inboard than I would prefer. Aside from that, a lovely pick! Congratulations! Best E.
Date...I fully agree
The movement is tried and tested, so I know it is reliable and easy to service in the future, and yes, it is slightly too small for the case, but not a deal breaker The date is nicely done, though like you, I would agree that the positioning would have be...
Thanks Richard!
I\'m clearly not a watchmaker but I do find myself wondering how difficult it would be to engineer a larger date wheel on an existing movement. Surely it\'s just a question of a wider date wheel with blank space towards the centre but driven by the same g...
Black is the new black or great catch!
And it looks so spectacular in this colour. Like you said, the complete absence of text apart from the brand is a great design choice!
It certainly stands out, especially in the boutique.
Not many dress watches can double up as casual with a black dial and stay cohesive. This is one of the few out there that does it well.
You have certainly made a splendid choice!
Looking forward to your impressions after you have had it for a while
Certainly...
but this is proving to be a little tough - I went beyond planned purchases and got 3 new watches in the last month, so it's going to take some time for me to get around to getting a proper on the wrist review down on paper

Gosh, three beauties. I'm new to this forum, new to the world of nice watches. I've had my eye on Nomos for a while, love their clean dials. And these pics only make it more clear to me that I need to put a black strap on my Reverso Duo. Enjoy them all. B...
Welcome, Jack.
And thanks for the nice comments. The Nomos is indeed a very nice watch, simple but comfortable and well built. The JLC is the Master Control Date. Looking forward to seeing pics of your Reverso. It's an iconic watch that has a cult following, here and el...
