Horological Meandering: tried the JLC in person

very understated with the dial color but the finishing looks good and rich in person. I haven't seen the iwc in person. The JLC complicated dial seems natural and harmonious to me but the IWC is better off with the date only.. I don't like the 3 registers on the patterned dial seems out of place.

Jaeger-LeCoultre: I am big fan of the JLC 8 days

I was considering getting it to complete the pair.. but restrained myself. your post brought back the cravings.. th big date is overall layout is more beautiful. I like the day and night indicator especially how it done with sun and moon cutou

Seiko: you had me at platinum and that too from Grand Seiko

but totally agree.. the movement was a low point for me too.. nothing special about it. not clear from the pictures, but does it have better movement finishing than the usual man produced one.. if yes, I would have assumed they give it a new movement designation... so now I assume its the usual move

Parmigiani: love this watch...

besides the unique shape and hands, the movement finishing, cloud shaped bridges, interior angle bevelling.. all sublime. I wonder if Mr Michel Parmigiani has personally worked on these peices. And for me personally, the 8 day power reserve is very useful and I can pick up any time during the week a

Independents: How do people who have one use it?

I like MAD2 better than MAD1 as it's more wearable. I am still debating how frequently am I going to use it? Any experience to share please.. how many other watches you have and when does MAD2 get its turn? Tomba

Parmigiani: it really shines in the wild

Seeing the photos on websites doesn't do much.. this closeup in the natural light shows the complex dial design. We all know that fabulous finishing of the movement in the back. Wonderful piece. thanks for the beautiful pictures.
