The Extreme Lab 2 is a watch I never owned, but which I had the pleasure to test for some weeks in 2015. A watch which is in my short list, for what it is: Technical, original, very modern, yet, and incredibly attractive. Its dial is super busy, a real me...

A very cool dial indeed

A very interesting one, for sure.

I could not agree more w your description of this one

Same for me.

Indeed, this is a very attractive JLC -- messy but somehow in great harmony! ;-) Thanks for sharing.

That's the big challenge JLC achieved.

That is a great way to put it: an artistic mess...but it all comes together so nicely.

That's the point. Look at this!

A super cool watch!

Definitely. It should deserve much more consideration!

A very cool piece indeed...

Well, it is surprisingly wearable, due to the short lugs.

Truly spectacular

As well as the backside!

Maybe one of the nicest and most modern back of a sports watch! Very Richard Mille, which I think is a compliment for such a watch! Best, E.

Indeed. This is what comes to mind. Dare I say in a better way? ;)

I would agree with that 100% mon ami 😉

;)

Agreed 👍

Agreed! I crise le beautiful artistic mess!!

Thank you! ;)

What a watch. Seen many photos of it over the years but never knew what it could do. watched a video review just now. Yep, a super tool watch. It's added to my wish list for sure. It's just superb. Cheers S

And rightly so. A bargain for what it is.

No doubt a great watch, but the dial has to much action for me!

I understand, my friend.

Technological marvel. So many levels. Wow.

That's it!

Ah the EL2. This is perhaps my favorite watch from JLC along with the Duometre Chronograph but if I were forced to choose ONLY one JLC, it would probably be the EL2 due to its function and practically...

Great photo! Under studio lighting the EL2 can look extra busy but irl under dynamic lighting like this it is surprisingly legible

In total agreement.

Agreed 👍

The EL2 can look and seem overly complicated until you look at comps like the Porsche Design Indicator Chrono with digital Chrono minutes...

I can only agree. This movement is really awesome.

+1 well said 😉

In total agreement. The close up, with an agressive light, is not giving justice to the watch. In real life conditions, it looks even better.

It is such an awesome watch, but my wrist can't support it's 46+mm

Too bad.

If that is a mess...

Good one, very well said.

An uber-cool timepiece !.. I could/would probably be overwhelmed by its appeal..

The good news is that it is not impossible to find nor fund it...

It Is An Unbelievable Horological Achievement...

Aah, merci, Scott!

Very nice dial, messy yes, but it works! I like the details like the openings in the hands to allow good readability at all time! Best, E.

Yes, great to see that from and functions are intimately linked.

Thank you Amanico
