Jaeger Lecoultre Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar Steel Case Black Dial.

 

When elegance is blended with strength... The winner cocktail of this MUT Perpetual Calendar in steel with this black dial. 


The elegance of its superb case, the strength of its black dial. 






There is not much to not like in this watch....

Best,

Nicolas

Yes, it's wonderful. That said, why are there lines on the month subdial?

Maybe to show the trimesters?

 
By: amanico : July 24th, 2021-09:25

Duh! Yes, of course.

I always liked the rectangular cuts in the hands to reveal the ... leap year indicator?

 
By: kjkt3 : July 24th, 2021-10:11

No, the danger zone indicator. In red when between 10 PM and 3 AM, otherwise in white.

Somehow they managed to make a perpetual calendar dial is not only very readable, but the overall result also transcend simplicity of the dial. It is busy without being busy…quite nice results!

Very nicely put. I love your description.

Ah am wearing this today

But the silver dial boutique special edition aka "Dr Strange edition". The black dial is very powerful and nice indeed. I like it ! Cheers Robin ...  

This one is more classy. Happy to read that you still own it.

 
By: amanico : July 24th, 2021-22:56

A really beautiful timepiece! Why was it called “Dr Strange edition”? Enjoy!

 
By: Sfwatchlover : July 25th, 2021-15:13

Because the main character of this movie wore this watch.

 
By: amanico : July 25th, 2021-15:51

My favorite current perpetual and a great value.

 
By: India Whiskey Charlie : July 24th, 2021-13:26

I can only agree. In this range of price, you are totally right.

 
By: amanico : July 24th, 2021-22:56

I really like the rose gold version

 
By: Watch_kha_wen : July 24th, 2021-18:35
Tried it on at the airport but my found it a bit too big for my wrist. If they do one in 36 I would defo go for it Kev

A bit too big? Really. Then this one is for you, with its 37 mm.

 
By: amanico : July 24th, 2021-22:57
...  

Yeah here is how it looks like

 
By: Watch_kha_wen : July 25th, 2021-09:55
Not utterly too big but 1 or 2 mm less would be perfect That’s why I am looking at the 5140g Kev ...  

Well, it sits on you wrist, very well!

 
By: amanico : July 25th, 2021-10:16

I know there’s a lot of arguably better perps out there but this one still seems to be my fave. Guess i’m just naturally biased towards JLC :p

 
By: Echi : July 25th, 2021-05:13

It depends on the price range, indeed. But at that price range, one of the best, if not THE best, in my opinion. It is good to be biased, sometimes. :))))

I was very happy to see this post as I own this watch! Agree on the assessments in the post and the comments.

I remember that I acquired this watch in March 2019 at an AD in Hong Kong. It was recommended by Ben Hodinkee founder in a video as a top buy for a perpetual calendar, which was how I got to know this model. The adjustment of date/month/day/moon phase is ...  

That's beautiful and love the blue strap too.

 
By: India Whiskey Charlie : July 25th, 2021-15:34

+1!

 
By: amanico : July 25th, 2021-15:50

Thank you :)

 
By: Sfwatchlover : July 25th, 2021-16:24

Bravo. And I must see that your strap is superbly chosen.

 
By: amanico : July 25th, 2021-15:50

Thanks a lot for the compliment! I still have the original strap in perfect, unworn condition (ready for any formal occasions that may come up in the future:)

 
By: Sfwatchlover : July 25th, 2021-16:28

Good!

 
By: amanico : July 25th, 2021-17:04

This is all the watch one would ever need 👍

 
By: holdemchamp1225 : July 27th, 2021-15:42

Not bad, not bad... ;)
