to celebrate the creativity and the diversity, in a few words, the richness of the history of the Grande Maison.

What a wonderful post, my friend!

 

 

A stunning line up that shows JLC’s strength and diversity!

 

Love it!

 

Once again you have reminded me that I made the right choice of brand when I started with JLC.

 

I make me happy but also a bit sad since it also reminds me how far I am from being able to break free from JLC…

 

And maybe explore other brands.

 

 A never ending love story.

 

 

Best, my Tolrquemada!

I didn't speak about the toolwatches we all know, belonging to Chronometry, Military, Sports, Diving, etc...



It will be sad when you have the feeling that you're at the end of your collection, my friend.

For the moment, you are in the euphory of Collecting Watches.

Come on, you already have a stunning collection of Vintage JLC watches, you just have to get some few other Classics, and some Moderns, such as ... The Duometre?



The other brands can wait!



All the Best, Blomman.

I've been digging into other brands recently, but JLC is the grande dame of style for me. 

There is an interesting novelty item here - any more info on that globe clock?  Is it electric? 

You will love JLC more and more.

About the Globe, it is an eight days movement, from 1930.

The electic plug is here only to put the light on.

Best,

Nicolas

...you have truly captured the beauty and majesty of La Grande Maison.
Thank you Nicolas

brief moment here at the office

Yes Echi, we should think about it this way:

There are Traditional Manufactures, and others which are Innovative.

But how many are both Traditional and Innovative at the same time?

Food for thought.

Best,

Nicolas

An ode to the Gran Manufacture, what is not to love but their love of time

Thank you for putting this post together!
One of these opus is more beautiful than the other.

I have never seen this skeletonized Reverso Tourbillon before. This one is absolutely breathtaking. (Also I like the Eight Days SQ for its clean lines on the back.) Is there more to tell about this Reverso?

A wonderful Post!

One of the nicest watch ever made by JLC.

It was a LE of 35 pieces, released in 2004.

The retail at this moment was around 84 000 Euros.

The last one was sold 2 years ago, at the Paris Boutique, and it was one of the biggest mistake I did, as I had to get it!

Best, my friend.

Nicolas

thanks Nico...
still drooling over the MMR...

I already said it, but this is simply one of my top five favourite watch.

Simply spectacular.

Thanks for your input.

Best,

Nicolas

Thanks for sharing your insights into JLC. You really capture the depth and breadth of the collection --and, as you said, didn't even include some important historic models. What a feast for the eyes.

Nicolas, what a stunning exposition of the great JLC watches and clocks! I really enjoyed your annotated view of the brand. I do not own a JLC (yet), but I have always wanted to have an Atmos someday. And oftentimes, I hear that Master Ultra Thin seducing me into the brand. My local AD doesn't have one to see in person, but I really hope to check one out sometime.

You don't have bad taste, my friend!

That would also be a very elegant ( and poetic ) way to sum JLC.

Thanks for your input.

Best,

Nicolas
