Two dream watches together: JLC Duometre UTT / Patek 5110P.
Two watches which express travels in a different way, one being one of the most charmful, if not THE most charmful, World Time, the Patek the other being THE new milestone in terms of Travel Time, the JLC. One is 5 mm bigger than the other, the other is a...
Nice pair Nico !! I did not realized that...
...the backside of the Jaeger has the 24 cities !! How do you tell time from the ring in the back?? Thanks!! Gordon
It is here to remind you in what time zone is the town you are going to.
Just a reminder, to help you to correctly set the second time. Astute, as we all don't remember these different time zones. Best my friend. Nicolas
Two great travel time pieces.
Just when I think I'm partial to the PP, I see the backside of the Duometre and I'm smitten; but then I see the classic elegance of the PP world time and the beautiful guilloche and I'm likewise swooning over the PP. Would be really hard to choose between...
Absolutely, John, they are so different that they are complementary.
Which justifies the dream to get both of them.... Each of them has its strong points, indeed. Best, Nicolas
Superb 2 marvels ..Mesmerizing appeal each.. Distinctly different appearance.. Thus..
- in an ideal setting, with unlimited funds, one might go for both ! Each of them is Queen , captivating both with amazing presence ! The PP reveals her functionality only at detailed looking, with this wonderful dial while the UTT catches attention at on...
Yes, this is the Champions League of Travel watches, here.
I am in serious trouble, as I want three Duometres, and I don't know with which one to start... But at least I have this Patek... I will show it to you, next time, my friend, but be prepared to get some severe treatment! ;) Best, Dr Mamadu.
Pills, pills & more good medicine.. Dr Mamadu has all the cures.. If you can stand it !..
- I will be ready, expecting the best ! Great !! Best, hs
It hurts as if it was the picture of an ex GF that broke with you!
Last winter I was in Paris and went to the JLC boutique at Place Vendome (no.7 -hence the red number 7 in the date) just to try on this watch, I was obsessed with it! Plan was to buy it 50:50 with my father but we didn't get it finally...and still thinkin...
Can truly relate to that.. BUT: Chin up.. Someday she will find you, hopefully !.. ;)
- maybe pre-ordering it from the Boutique in Paris or anywhere near you might help !.. Although it's an Edition limité , I'm pretty confident there will be some left , or under production.. :) Best, hs
The duometre is surely also a great great piece
but I definitely vote for that very special guilloche, for this indescribable blue grey dial color, for these sensual round shape shoulder flanks... And on my "chicken's wrist" the 5110P fits anyhow much better. Best, Mike
Don't be so sure. The Duometre has exactly the same size than the 5070.
... If you know what I mean... ;) All the best, my friend. Nicolas
He He He !
Yes I know what you mean ;-) In that case it could be 5110P + 5070G LOL ! JLC great too, but other models for me then (I was at the boutique not later than this morning). I'll tell you about my doubts but will take the advantage of the just today started ...
Yes, I would be very interested to read your thoughts!
But in the meantime, have some nice and great days, my friend! Nicolas
Duometre Moonphase Enamel
Hi, catching up this old thread (not sure if a new one should be started in these cases?); I am liking the Duometre quite a lot but have a doubt regarding the 1/6th of a second display; is that hand continuously rotating while the watch is winded or is it...
No, the 1/6th second hand is continuously running, and it has been tested, of course,
To last in time! You have to see the QL as a very precise Watch, and I already said it a lof of time, the Moonphase is an aesthetical pretext, not the purpose of this Watch. Did you know that both the 1/6th second hand and the big second hand are both hac...
Thanks, didn't know that detail
That the 1/6th and the seconds were resetting to 0 , that certainly allows for high precision and I see what you say about the Moonphase, a chrono makes much more sense here. In this Moonphase version you can see the time passing precisely, however you ca...
I am hesitating a lot between...
The A Chronograph WG black dial / The UTT White Gold / The QL WG Enamel Dial... Honestly, I am lost, since I don't have enough funds to get the three of them. But I am saying to myself that I can't go wrongf with any of them. So, no pressure we'll see how...
Yes, tricky one!
Totally different look and functionality but within same family! The price gaps are also quite wide. I need a Duometre too...
Now you understand the issue... All very tempting, too.
One after the other? ;) Best, Nicolas.
UTT and 5130P
Nicolas your taste in watches is impeccable - my UTT and my 5130P what a outstanding pair!
Thank you, my friend. This is indeed a Duo which is impossible to beat.
For complementary reasons, in my opinion. Best of both words, to make it short. All the best, Sid. Nicolas
