nee "Master Grande Taille"... my hope is that the proportions of the original 1992-2003 version would come through on the new one. I didn't like the wider bezel of the 40mm, and was hoping for a more slanted bezel, which I find more elegant.

The watch looks much more elegant than the former one, IMO.

You will certainly see, soon.

Best, Dean.

so my friend, you're looking like a devil! yes, great news, huge novelties. but, what's about the so nice stainless steel QP seen last year? no news about this complication. some of us are still waiting for a new version of the master QP...

Very nice...

The Master RdM is a nice size bump, brings that model back from the brink!

I really like the skeletonized reverso, reminds me of the Reverso Art Deco, though I'd always prefer skeletonizing without engraving (see the recent Piaget), but JLC will never do that, or so it seems

Te Spherotourbillon is a fantastic piece, but I have a hard time thinking of it as a duometre. I know there are only 2 movements and 3 models in the line as of now, but they had a coherent design aesthetic, and this one looks so totally different. Clearly it is the "Hybris for the 99%" and that's exactly what the look conveys

If you get the true purpose of the Shpero, then you will get how it is a true Duometre...

Stay tuned, I will post the in depht review in the following days.

Ever referred to as a duometre in JLC literature?? If it is, I can't remember seeing it...

Are clearly my favorites this year!

Thank you, my friend for the great report!

Looking forward to hear more details and to see the watches in the metal!

Any info on this one..?!

I'm in the same boat as XGT size cases are unfortunately unwearable for me.  That WG Reverso looks stunning can't wait for Nico's pics.

... which caught my eye. hope to see more details and spec of this watch soon.

I agree with the masses..JLC is following its own and braving a very nice path with their pieces..

looking forward to more on the Duometre à Spherotourbillon and that atmos is just divine...

Thank you for the summary and looking forward to more...

Nicolas, thanks for bringing many beautiful watches to us.

To me, the master control is so balance and clean.  It is timeless. I like the stainless steel version because the blue second hand blends well with the dial colour.

The deep sea chronograph is so classic and easy to read.  Please don't tell me JLC uses the cheap strap again without JLC logo.

And JLC still has to improve their strap, definitely.

But at least there are already some nice improvements on the cases, sizes, volumes, well, in a word, watches.

Even if a strap is a true part of the watch.

Best,

Nicolas.

Which can be easily fixed or improved at minor cost by the brand.

Regards

Ling

But think about it: What is better? A nice watch and a so so strap, or a nice strap on a so so watch?

What?

A nice strap on a great watch?

I hear you.



Best,

Nicolas

...the same size of the 'regular' RDM. I think they work better on the 37 mm version. This message has been edited by marcelo on 2012-01-18 06:38:57

We'll see all that in the details, my friend.

Nice choice, though.

Best,

Nicolas.
