K-Lo's post highlights a fascinating market shift where contemporary steel Jaeger-LeCoultre Duometre models now command higher prices than their gold predecessors. This phenomenon invites collectors to re-evaluate the intrinsic value and desirability of materials versus horological innovation and current market trends. K-Lo's personal reflection and accompanying wrist shots provide a compelling visual context for this discussion.

Bravo 👏🏻 ! That was fast.
If you had to choose one; it would be one of those two. And if you had to choose two then you got both ! I don’t think our collecting lines up that much, different interests and directions, but on those two JLC I’m with you 100%. I just never considered either as my wrist is simply too small!
I remember trying on your tattoo finissimo and realizing it would have taken like many more links (to add) for me to close the bracelet. I should have gotten the regular titanium instead of the ceramic one…
Collectability aspect not huge to me. Plus a rare JLC actually reaches this.
