Jaeger Lecoultre Master Ultra Thin Tourbillon 40, white gold.
This is a Watch we already discussed, as a SIHH novelty of this year.
Two détails are important, the case and the dial.
As for the case, it is 40 mm big, why not, but too thick for my taste, with a 11, 30 mm height.
Nonetheless, the case is elegant, and let's say it once again, in case JLC reads us ( which I don't doubt ), it would be a marvellous case for a new Master line.
The case proportions, on this picture:
Now the dial. Two characteristics: The grained finish, which seems to be more and more important in the modern JLC production, and the darkened indexes and hands which are dauphine shaped.
The whole Watch:

Interesting offer in WG, like the proportions, but most of all the grained dial, with the cool dark grey (?) indices & hands.
That gives it a sort of cool look, but truly elegant also. Getting used to the "hole" for the Tourbi, always finds me reluctant, but what for a Tourbi ( apart from contributing to accuracy), if one wouldn\'t see it . One Q to conclude: how is the backside...
See through case back, my friend.
To be honest, I like the grained dial, much less the hole made by the tourbillon in the dial. But the good, excellent part of tis Watch is its case, which I find magnificient... Best, Nicolas
A nice watch to have an additional look at
Well, I usually don't like darkened markers and hands... but here it seems to work very well. And, as I already noticed in other models, I love this dial texture. Concerning the case, I find it very classical but quite nice, especially the lugs: very simp...
A Master case ...
Masterpiece. Tried this on today and the case/spec is just perfect. I wonder what the future holds for this case!? Beautiful lines and sits very nicely on my wrist. ;)
I hope the bigger MUT cases will be dedicated to the new Master Line.
They are so elegant. Best, Nicolas
Indeed, in my opinion, the Master case needs to be deeply re visited.
It is a bit outdated, now... Best, Nicolas
Agree.
Will be interesting to see what other high complications JLC develop along side the HM11 and place in this beautiful streamlined MUT case. Probably not a Gyro Tourbillon! :) What about a 'mini me' MUT Gyro!?... anythings possible with JLC!
