Okay, so, today I wanna talk about my little adventure with the Jaeger-LeCoultre JLC Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar. You know, the fancy watch they have at specialty stores. First off, I had heard a lot about Jaeger-LeCoultre, like how they make around 100,000 watches a year and have everything from super elegant pieces to tough, sporty ones. I even found out that they had this entry-level line called the Jaeger-LeCoultre Club back in the 70s. Anyway, I wasn’t really looking for a “club” watch.
I wanted something classy, and the Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar caught my eye. It’s got this sleek look, you know? It’s 39mm across and just 9.2mm thick. It’s polished, and the way it plays with light is just awesome. I spent a good chunk of time just staring at it, to be honest. The dials come in different colors, and I was torn between the midnight blue and the silver one. They also have this eggshell beige, which is pretty classic, but I’m more of a modern guy, I guess.
I also looked at the Master Ultra Thin Moon. It is a very beautiful watch, too. I was really into the sub-seconds and the moon phase on it. It’s simple but has that “wow” factor, but in the end, I decided to see the Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar. This one is a bit more complicated and the dial looks very busy to me.
- Went to the store, saw the watch in person.
- Tried it on, felt amazing on my wrist.
- Compared the different dial colors.
- Looked at the Master Ultra Thin Moon as well.
My Choice
In the end, I decided to do more research on the Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar. This watch is simply amazing. I mean, the craftsmanship is just next level. It’s a bit of a splurge, but hey, you only live once, right? Overall, I am super satisfied with my visit to the Jaeger-LeCoultre store. I think Jaeger-LeCoultre is a great brand, no wonder they are so well-known in the watch community.
I am so impressed with my new watch.
