Jaeger-LeCoultre

Hi all,
  I am interested in the JLC master compressor chronograph. Does the watch wear bigger or smaller than its 41.5mm diameter. Are owners of the watch pretty happy with its looks and chrono function? Also, what is the retail price and what is a normal discount for this watch? (please PM me this info).  Pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

Well, the MC Chrono wears its size, not less nor more.

Let's say that with the compressor crowns, the chrono looks a bit bigger than it is in real.

I know some MC Chrono owners who are / were happy with this watch, which didn't suffer of any problem.

If the compressor crowns don't disturb you, yes, this is a piece to consider.

I will end by telling you that this is Magali METRAILLER's favourite piece ( Mrs METRAILLER belongs to the JLC Design Team).

Best,

Nicolas

Hi Vipes,

I have a stainless MC Chrono that I got a couple years ago and am very happy with it. Size wise, it may apperar a bit larger than the 41.5mm size since the bezel is fairly thin making the dial look a little larger. The three compression buttons may also add a bit to the overall size visually, but not in bad way. That said, I have a slim wrist and the fit is fine for me. Function wise the MC chrono works great and looks quite nice in my opinion. Good luck finding the best JLC for you and if you end up with the MC Chrono, I'm sure you will enjoy it as well.

Regards,

I have a slim wrist also so good to know that it's comfortable. I am looking forward to seeing it in person.
