First, as ever thank you for bringing another time piece closer. The dial and details are stunning, BUT why does JLC have to demonstrate it's a Tourbillon???? Besides its being an additional complication, isn't a Tourbillon for achieving the highest possible accuracy when measuring time!? Why not have it being visible through the back, only?
For those who buy an Tourbillon are in the know and don't have to advertise it. It's like leaving one of the kissing buttons on a sleeve of a custom tailored jacket open for everyone to see it's tailored. One knows what one buys and doesn't have to advertise it! Just my personal opinion!
Thank you for the other great reviews!!!

I am not mad about Tourbillons, with some very rare exceptions, though. But it has some interesting features. I have other dream pièces, from JLC. Best, Nicolas

Maybe this is because of the cylindric spiral?

Which is not too often seen in a Tourbillon? Like you, I much prefer Tourbillons when they are on the back side, except when they are gyrotourbilloning. ;) Best, Nicolas

I was so fortunate that Stephane allowed me to wear his platinum sphero for a while during our dinner last year. The Jubilee of the Cylindric was also at the party. I shot wrist shots of both. Th Cylindric just did not do the same for me. I do like the de...

Mate its the automatic tourbillon that pura me off, or the layout.... A nice watch but it doesnt make me go wow! Agree with everybody who prefears the sphero, that is a watch that is slowly getting to the very top spot as my fav JLC. Mo

The case, the dial layout, simple reading date, but neatly displayed, seconds display, dual time or day night if you wish, PR, everything is useful, elegant. And a little more affordable to boot versus the gyro! But I do like th gyro too! Anyways, just ad...

.. pretty hypothetical as unreachable; - I think I still would go with a Duometre, (such as the UTT) If you'd ask me which of these two : then the cool, WG one, please .. With thanks for the share, - my Best, hs

I hope this is a prototype, because that would be a big shock to see on a watch that was ordered, paid for, waited for - finally arrived and What!!?? Cheers, Mike
