Hi to all - esp. to Jerome and Jaw (who maybe can forward this little text ),
I was browsing again some manufactures sites this afternoon, and again started to become angry about the JLC site.
Don't get me wrong, i really love the brand and am excited about my Reverso GrandDate, as well about my Compressor Geographic. I admire such creative heads like Magali and Janek, Philippe or Eric - just to mention a few - who make those fine watches possible. And I think JLC belongs to the Top10 watch makers in the world.
But then again - when i look at the website - i just do not understand. Sorry, but i need to say that - the website simply s***s, and that is still a nice circumscription (i dont think i need to explain why, just search this or other forums). I mean, we live in the 21st century, and a website is like a business card today, don't you think ?
Look at Sites from Lange, Patek, IWC or Breguet, even the Rolex site is way better. Or take the great JLC book you can get from your retailer or from JLC itself (in german it is called "Buch der Manufaktur") - this is one of the best brochures, i have seen from various manufactures.
So why for christ sake, JLC can not simply spend maybe 20k for a brand's adequate website ??? As i said - i don't get it.
But i haven't lost my hope yet
Of course - other opinions are welcome - i'm curious to read them next week, when beeing back from vacation.
Thanks and best regards
Andreas
