Jaeger-LeCoultre: Thank you

I will drop a note on the JLC site and see if they have any knowledge of this happening with other moon discs. I have had the watch running now for a day or so and it seems to be running just fine and appreciate your last comment that hopefully the blue just went on a holiday and the remainder of th

Jaeger-LeCoultre: movement

Yeah, I have already thought about that and unfortunately this model in Rose Gold has a solid case. You can see the hands and other finishes on the face appear to be fine so maybe I will get lucky and the damage will be limited to the Moon dial.

Jaeger-LeCoultre: ordering now-JLC USA Repair?

Ok, Thanks for that very useful link and I will order up this stuff right now to get rid of this moisture issue. Not sure how best to contact JLC for a fix and where to send the watch. I see Virginia and NYC sales/support and wonder if those are the service contact hubs. Any help appreciated.

Jaeger-LeCoultre: Love it

You are right that adjusting it for distant time changes due to travel would not be ideal. I am absolutely taken by the thinness and lightness of this watch and it is just beautiful to look at. I have always worn heavier watches(Sub, Daytona, etc) and I believe those days are now gone forever. I smi

Jaeger-LeCoultre: I'm wearing it now!

Perpetual for me is the only way. When I hit the corrector for the first time everything moved and it said Jan 1, 2007, so I pushed and pushed until today 12/15/07 Saturday. It's on my wrist and the Daytona will have to sleep for awhile. This is an absolutely gorgeous piece and I am facinated with i
