JLC continue to build on their success
Thanks Nico,
Alexis sent his regards and spoke fondly of you and the recent trip to Singapore. Sounds like you had a lot of fun.
There were a few watches in the 2014 collection that I would have loved to see. The Duometre QL enamel that you mention, but particularly the Master Grande Tradition Perpetual 8 day skeleton. The blue enamel and hands and the beautiful skeletonized movement is etched in my brain.
Yes of course the Duometre UTT is the rose gold version. I shouldn't type from memory, but I suspect I made the error because I do prefer the white gold version and the contrast with the world disk. Great watch and JLC again show their engineering prowess with such a sensible and practical application of the world time concept. The watchmakers watchmaker.
The evening could only have been better if you were with us down under!
Until 2015.
Andrew

I too prefer the UTT in white gold. But it is limited to 100 pieces...
Wish I were here, too, Andrew... Maybe one day? All the best, Nicolas.
Great report . Thanks Andrew
and thanks to the wonderful guys from JLC for showing off their wares. Loved chatting to Alexis and Ettiene Always class from Richemont The chocolate Reverso was the best in show for me Julian
thank you
Thanks Andrew, for sharing the Melbourne dinner with us. The suppleness of the Casa F. strap is so very comfortable, and it's a gorgeous piece, but like you, I'm not sure what sort of longevity I would have with a brown dial. I think that my favourite to ...
