Alright, let’s talk about this Jaeger-LeCoultre JLC Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar, the original order. Man, this thing is something else. So, I finally got my hands on it, and I’ve gotta say, the whole process was quite an adventure.
It all started a while back. I was browsing around, looking for a new watch, you know, something classy, something that really stands out. And I stumbled upon this beauty – the JLC Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar. I’d heard about it before, seen some pictures, but never really considered it until then. The 39mm case size seemed perfect, just the right fit for my wrist. It’s what they call a dress watch, but it’s got this understated elegance that I really dig.
So, I started doing some research, reading up on it, checking out reviews. I found a couple of discussions online, people were talking about how thin it is, and how it feels amazing on the wrist. Some folks were comparing it to other watches, like Longines, debating which one was better. That got me even more intrigued.
After weeks of going back and forth, I finally decided to pull the trigger. I placed the order, and let me tell you, the wait was killer. Every day felt like an eternity. I was constantly checking the tracking, hoping for some good news. Then, one day, it finally arrived.
Unboxing it was an experience in itself. The packaging was top-notch, really gave off that luxury vibe. And then, there it was, the watch in all its glory. I carefully took it out, held it in my hands, and just admired it for a good while. The craftsmanship is just insane. It’s so thin, so sleek, it felt like a feather on my wrist. It is the perfect size for me.
I spent the next few days just wearing it around, getting a feel for it. I gotta say, it’s incredibly comfortable. It really does feel like a whisper on the wrist, just like people said. And the complications, man, they’re something else. The perpetual calendar is just mind-blowing. Knowing that this little thing on my wrist can keep track of the date, day, month, and even the leap year, it’s just wild.
I also had a look at the movement through the case back. It was great to admire the quality of finish and decoration. It runs perfect, the hands are perfectly aligned with the hour and minute markers. I mean it’s been a few weeks now, and I’m still in awe of this watch. It’s not just a timepiece, it’s a work of art. It’s a statement piece, but it’s not flashy. It’s subtle, sophisticated, and just oozes class.
Here are the things I really like about it:
- The size: 39mm is just perfect for my wrist. It’s not too big, not too small, just right.
- The thinness: It’s incredibly thin, which makes it super comfortable to wear. It’s like it’s barely there.
- The perpetual calendar: This complication is just amazing. It’s so cool to have a watch that can keep track of all that information.
- The craftsmanship: The attention to detail is just insane. Everything is so precise, so well-made.
All in all, getting this JLC Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar has been quite a journey. From the initial research to the agonizing wait, to finally having it on my wrist, it’s been a wild ride. And you know what? It was totally worth it. This watch is a keeper, no doubt about it.
It’s a classic for a reason, and it’s definitely earned a permanent spot in my collection. It is a very beautiful watch.
