Jacquemart Minute repeater

Hi all
I have never owned an Ulysses Nardon nor know much about it.
However I have come across a few Jacquemart Mintue repeater online, some look stunning. I have always wanted a MR in my collection, obviously Patek being the first choice… if I had the funds

I can’t find much info online in relation to UN MR, any feedback from actual owners here?

I can see either 38mm or 42mm variation, did they always make each in limited edition?
And something they no longer doing it?

I never had any issues servicing any UN watches ranging from simple GMTs to perpetuals to split second chronographs. Claret is still around and the parts can be supplied. I would argue that it is easier find or manufacture a part for relatively modern rep...
