Jrwong23 reviews his JLC Master Ultra Thin Perpetual steel with silver sunburst dial, comparing it to the new black dial SIHH 2016 release. Discusses 'special edition' status.

Alright the new black dial steel version is out during SIHH 2016. To some extent, I like the black dial version with the gold rotor.... But I already have this special edition JLC MUT Perpetual in steel with the silver sunburst dial (which is also very nice and more legible than the black dial I fee

So... I can't say I have regretted my choice and all I can do is... Enjoy my MUT perpetual

Now we have the steel black dial, can we still consider my version a special edition as inscribed on the case back of my watch? Hmmm... We now have the black dial in steel being a regular version (not just Boutique exclusive). What makes my version more special than the black dial steel version? Isn't black dial JLCs rarer? Sometimes I wonder how the Brands handle positioning

Nonetheless, after my intensive travels for work, I must admit I miss this watch a lot. It made me smile a lot as I wore it today

Cheers

I would have preferred to see this silver dial as a normal production, and the black dial

As a boutique edition, it would have been a better thing, I think. I understand your feeling very well, my friend. Nonetheless, you have a very nice watch. Enjoy! Best, Nicolas

Good point Nico

The black dial should be the special edition indeed! Cheers Robin

Yes, if they had the idea to release the black dialed version, then yes. [nt]

I think your silver dial should have better legibility than the black dial one.

Having said that, I'm currently working on a maneuver to bring a black dial watch home... Not a JLC, though.

I see you have found an arrangement with your wife, then :)

Keeping fingers crossed for the black dial!

On two conditions:

As long as I don't spend her money, and keep the ones that she designated as keepers.
