.. and I absolutely can relate to the version on stainless steel ;
( the Pt more Retro for me, in a way)
- Somehow quite happy, that I've put my (personal Géophysic 1958 on) order with JLC,
already some time ago.
We'll find out more, what's in the boxes, when they finally will arrive, this fall..
But maybe there will be a chance to see the protos somewhere, sometime before that.
Hope you had a good, relaxed ( not red-eyed !) trip back to Paris !
Thx for your sharings and report(s) - guess, some more will come ( about HK ?)
My Best for the weekend !

A Trip To Asia. Part One, Singapore.
By: amanico : June 26th, 2014-17:21
First of all, I have to say that this trip is my first trip in Asia. You can imagine how excited I was when, a bit less than one year ago, Jaeger-Lecoultre proposed this trip. From Asia, what did I have in mind? A wealthy Financial world, a very far count...
Wow

Nice photos, especially the night photo from top :-) Hope to see you again someday and very nice meeting you in jlc boutique. The platinum geophysic is very nice in your wrist :-) Regards, Ronald

Even if I would have preferred Alethea's wrist for all of the photos ;-) Good to see your room was ready when you arrived too. I am finding the SS Geophysic highly tempting. But I will likely stay the course for a platinum Septantieme when I am able.
The trip was like in a dream. As for the SS Geophysic...

In terms of price, this is not the kind of Watch which will disturb you to get the Septantieme... Funny, I was on to take the 70eme with me, for this trip, but at the last moment, I let it in the safe... Too many watches with me, already... Best, my frien...
Great report Nicolas!

I am a born and bred Singaporean and I love your post! True you didnt get to visit the old Singapore at the quay areas - maybe next time :) As for the night life, I heard we declared a state of emergency for curfew at 12am due to a certain vampire in town...
Thank you

For the watch tour and city tour. Singapore is often compared to Switzerland I am not sure why. Besides banking - the two countries seem vastly different. As far as nightlife- come visit me in Zurich- it can compete with Paris ;) I also enjoyed your arm c...
great report Nico !!

I cannot wait to see your HK report !1 Cheers, Gordon
Mutual pleasure, my friend. Good to see you!

As for the second day, yes, we walked a lot, to try to find some nice spots for some photo sessions. Alethea was a great and sperb guide. Thank you, my friend, and remember, you are always welcome in France! Nicolas
And when is Part 2 coming out? :)

The Reverso Pt Tourbillon is truly a work of art! And indeed a lady's wrist brings out the RG Geophysic in a very different way from a guy's. Great to meet you Nicolas, and I'm glad you had fun in Singapore!
Very capable ...

were you flying or walking? :-) You covered quite many places within a day in this warm weather. Solid! Thanks for Part 1, looking forward to HK part now. Kong
Great report Nico !

Cool to hear you enjoyed the city a lot. GEO
Fantastic experience ...

.. i have never been in Asia that far :-) ... seems really like something 'out of our world' to me .... . As for the nightlife, i think you should go to Bangkok ;-) .... How long did you stay ? Filip
