I really liked it when I tried this version, and the rose gold version.


Sporty perpetuals are rare. I like the rotating bezel - which is a feature I often use on my dive watches (just not for diving!).

Maybe it is lacking something as Filip suggests - I'm not sure. I do prefer the titanium GST perpetual chronograph, which IWC has recently shown in his separate post. Maybe if this JLC were in titanium or ceramic it would make it that little bit more interesting.

All the best,

Jon

But somehow missing that 'special' factor in my opinion.... The je ne sais quoi........

Alarm? ;)

I did not think of that idea!

Too clinical?

 
 By: amanico : May 7th, 2024-08:07

Agree.

And alarm wouldn't help...

Charm? Soul?

Yes, smth along these lines.

It is a very good watch, no doubts, but it leaves me cold

Love mine though :)

I always liked that version.

For me one of the best watches from JLC in the recent years.

Sure! ;)

I like this one a lot.

A complicated piece with a sporty look, really my style of watches.

Yeah! I agree

We'll soon see... ;)

You might be disappointed for the PC…

… but a new complication within the Polaris line may show up.

You know something?

interesting!

Nice, but expensive and big

 
 By: vitalsigns : May 7th, 2024-13:19
I don't see much value here, not to beat the drum about price too much. A fairly pedestrian movement viewed from the back -- a solid caseback would have been better, or much better yet, an upgraded movement at this price. JLC could also have made a more s... 

Merci, Steve.

I tried the gold one at the boutique

Some time ago, it is fantastic ...  

I must admit I overlooked this piece at first...

 
 By: analog_sheen : May 7th, 2024-21:51
But at a watchmaking event in SF last year, they had it out for display for the participants. And in the metal, it took me completely by surprise in steel. I really like the look of the dial in blue, and as someone never really looking at PCs before, this...  

Here is one for you.

 
 By: amanico : May 10th, 2024-07:34
...  

In the London Boutique, albeit a couple of years ago.

 
 By: GWIS : May 10th, 2024-13:08
I also thought the rose gold version was something special, although the steel version is very nice. ...  

Cool, in RG, too.
