Doctor Strange Jaeger LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar
After seeing the movie Doctor Strange I knew that a very special watch was missing in my collection: the Jaeger LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar!
Here is my first -- as always very visual -- review of this watch.
What to say: there is a lot of value for a well priced and ultra thin perpetual calendar. I was in love with the newer, black version too but Doctor Strange was wearing the steel boutique edition so here
we go!
I love the full year display. I understand that to some purists is not ideal but just perfect for me!
Couldn't see the full moon (too cloudy here) so I thought..why not see the moon through the watch ?
The watch is amazingly thin and comfortable. The steel version is obviously lighter with the traditional silver dial (vs. the more structured dials of the gold versions) and I like the fact
that this is a "special edition". Indeed not limited but still special as it is only sold through JLC boutiques
Very pleased by both the watch and the top, 7 stars service of my local boutique that always pampers me with special gifts and attentions
I have many watches but this is my first perpetual calendar. A useful complication that I have always admired. It is also my very first watch with the moon so it feels like starting my collection today (just kidding of course).
Well if you thought that marketing in a movie wouldn't work...it did for me. Enjoyed the movie a lot and the link to the watch.
In my view there is simply no competition in terms of value and style for this perpetual calendar. The very best of Jaeger LeCoultre.

Big congrats Christian !
great choice ! Coincidentally I was wearing this yesterday too Mine says hi Cheers Robin ...
thank you Robin!! I have always been inspired
by the great photo of yours! really a great watch. Glad that we share the same taste on this ! Christian
That movie did cast an influence to me as well on this, at least
I'm starting to search and read more in this watch. Cool catch, Dr! Congratulations! Rgds Raymond
Thank you Raymond...you should try it on really
an amazing watch and fairly priced in my opinion (which is rare!) Christian
Huge congratulations, Christian! Your choice is the evidence of a mature taste.
This JLC is a very elegant watch. One of the best cases I know, with a very class perpetual calendar. Excellent choice. Best, Nicolas
thank you Nicolas, appreciated and admired the
various reviews about this model and the black one when it was issued. Always been a great help in my choices so thank you again. Indeed a very elegant perpetual calendar and very slim.
Congratulations Christian for this one
I\'m always happy when I see/feel someone happy with a new timepiece as it is always a true special moment. You own a master complication now into a dressed watch. Enjoy and wear it in good health. I don\'t know where you are in Switzerland but I could no...
thank you Alkiro, yes in Zürich
it was the same. Couldn't see the full moon but I did see it on my watch
I think this silver dial has better legibility than the dark dial version.
This would also be my choice out of the two, if I were you.
thank you Luis..both are
very nice and I think well legible but I had to go for the Doctor Strange one a bit more classic and I like boutique editions.
It was not a product placement
Spoke to ppl at the boutique. They told me that either the producer, director, or actor liked the watch a lot and approached JLC to make the fullback and engravement. No marketing fees involved.
it is a product placement and sponsorship
see www.jaeger-lecoultre.com and the sponsorship of JLC for the screening. The fullback and engraving was fictional as in the movie you can still see the glass under the engraved plate
