Thx for a superb pictorial !.. And Yes, also for me a Master Geo, (end 90ies if I remember correctly), which after a Referso Duo Face paved my way to JLC..

You said it, an interesting diversity, and also
with an undeniable charme plus the fascination of the World Time.

Also I like the case back with the gold medaillon.

Thx so much for sharing these great pics !

They remind me to take it out again to some
fresh air more often..

Best, also for your week, my friend !

Unobtrusive elegance




Still an attractive face, IMHO.




Nice Master Ctrl case back..

Jaeger Lecoultre Geographique. An interesting diversity.

 
 By: amanico : January 10th, 2021-00:48
The Master Géographique is the first Jaeger Lecoultre which intrigued me. I discovered it in the early 90's when it was issued. Here is the first generation, a special one in platinum, belonging to our dear Sandgroper: Followed by a second generation in t...

Very good write up.

This was one of the Mater Control pieces I looked at so many times and even came quite close to getting. As you say, there is something intriguing and exotic about this watch. I came across the white dial several times but had my mind set on the black, so... 

One of my favorite...

all time watches from JLC is the Master Compressor Geographic in steel ON BRACELET! I love how the 2nd time zone switches at 12 from AM to PM and back (when you go backwards), and this is the ONLY model to do so. On the bracelet, it wears larger than it's... 

I was hunting one on the bracelet with the 3 parallel links in the middle....

and when I called back it was gone. It didn't have box or papers, so that one might have been just as well. However, I DO wish JLC would release this dial variant in the more recent Polaris - or, better yet, START SELLING AND UPDATED COMPRESSOR LINE AGAIN... 

BIG+1 for ab Extreme Lab 3 🔥💥👍

2008 JLC Geographic

 
 By: avi_j_katz : July 22nd, 2023-11:25
Hi Nicolas, I really enjoyed your article. I’m a great fan of the Geographic and recently bought a 2008 model second hand. Apart from the elegant first generation models, the 2008 Geographic, in my opinion, is one of the most exciting designs of the Geogr...  

Thanks for the wonderful write-up and history.

Indeed, this was the watch that more than any other that put JLC on my radar in the 1990s. It was an exciting era when you’d wait for the printed catalog every year, as they had so much innovation in those days.

Great write-up with splendid pics, almost needless to say !

Also for me, a Master Geographic was my first „round“ JLC, many years back and I still have it. Now I love my Polaris Geo + WT, which is one of my most loved modern JLCs meanwhile !.. Taking the liberty to send kind greetings from one house to another ! A...

V2 in 1996 - also named "Watch of the Year" by the German Magazine CHRONO's reader's poll. Personally, I like it better than Patek's world time because it gives you date, power reserve and seconds, and it switches cities and time in BOTH directions. It tr... 

It cool and interesting

 
 By: ChristianDK : July 28th, 2023-17:32
I got so close to buying the MC several times like i (both the white dial and the black dial) never materialized though. I think I prefer the anniversary model these days.

Which one is your love affair

Honestly I like the Polaris Geographique , I just wish it is in black

late 90s grey platinum?

 
 By: Gelato Monster : August 5th, 2023-12:14

Or the steel black.
