A Triple Date!



This is the kind of Collection I love, Clavi...

To be able to gather the same complications in such a nice variation.

Huge congrats, F.

Would you now consider a Triple Date Moonphase?

Tripledates / teardrop lugs are probably my favorites, among all JLC production (yes, BEFORE memovox !)

I have a few too  (sorry for the bad pic)

including a gorgeous pink gold one acquired recently, which took me years to find again after I had traded the first one I got.

I am really happy to have its sibling now:

 

Now, indeed, it would be great to have a tripledate / moonphase to top it all

 

I'm not a big fan of complicated dial, but this is really lovely. Awsome vintage watch.

 

Man, I love your conception of " Few "!



At the beginning of past year, I was on to get this nice pair:



And now, I regret not having jumped on it.

The Triple Date Moonhpase is a pure Beauty, as well as all the other Dates you have.

I'm crazy about these splendid lugs, and the nice case.

Some day...

Best,

Nicolas

It was inscribed on the back and dated 11-6-47.

I didn't get it as I did not know people were still bidding on it AFTER the hammer! :-(

Not sure what the movement looked like after sixty years but the dial, case, etc. all looked to be in great shape.

Arrggh!
