This year Jaeger Lecoultre presents the world a number of interesting watches. Here I would like to share some of the most important Jaeger Lecoultre watches.
In my heart, Extreme Lab 2, is the star model of the Jaeger Lecoultre 2010. I already wrote a review of it. So I am not going to say more about it here. If you have interested, pls click here for details. And I think just in the SIHH 2010, just Lange’s Zeitwerk and Richard Mille’s RM027 could compete with it.
Tourbillon is not a must-have complication for me. What amazes me is that the repeater volume. To my knowledge, one have to stay in quiet room to enjoy the songs of the repeater. But for Master Grande Tradition, it is not necessary to do that as the decibel level is high enough to be heard in a crowded room at a distance of 5 meters. To be honest, the repeater is so loud that I even ignore other complications on the watch. I am now consider adding a repeater wristwatch that has same high volume of this piece. Why not Master Grande Tradition? It is a bit expensive for me. I will look for a cheaper alternative for myself.
The Duometre collection is a big surprise from Jaeger. I am really thrilled that the Duometre line get continued. And the new collection did shine at the SIHH 2010 watch show. The time display is located on the right side of the dial, and the date and moon-phase dial replases the chrono at the left side. The lower part of the dial has the subdial that indicates the power reserve, and reveals part of the movement that has received refined finishes. Also surprising is that the list price drops while it maintains the architecture. It is a good new for those who do not use chrono often but need a more practical complication instead.
The Navy Seals Automatic watch comes with a neat look and a big size. Not everyone can handle it. It it really looks cool and decent. And the price is not crazy-less then 6,000 Euros. It grows on me at first sight. I admit.
I already wrote about an article about Memovox International. And honestly, it is one of the most elegant watches I have seen in these years.
As the reediton of the Extreme Chrono, Extreme World Chrono does not look like a Jaeger watch. I love the pleasant chrono hour hand. I expect to try it on if possible.
