The Centigraphe was a sleeper, and the CTS even more so.
These were the last to catch peoples attention. They were bargains, no question. And people knew it, but we all thought there was time!
The Daily.
You guys I’m sure are tired of seeing this one. But it’s the daily Journe these days. Apart from Mo, is there another CTS here? I don’t remember, but I seem to recall someone having one on the rubber strap. Roll call maybe? ...
I sold a pretty serious chrono to buy this.
So while not my favourite I can say I gave it my full commitment.
I do have one but am away on vacation so cannot post it. It’s the original aluminum one. So light! It’s like having nothing
on your wrist as you know. Yours is beautiful. Enjoy!
I knew you had one Ed, and I thought it was the aluminum.
It’s a beautiful watch. Objectively the lighter colour of the aluminum is more pleasing. I had the choice of either when I bought mine but despite my previous comment I thought the Titanium would be an easier watch to wear daily.
Well Jay, you can’t go wrong. All are really something. Yours looks terrific and hoping you’re really enjoying it. I still marvel at it
every time I pick it up. Does not help build my biceps that’s for sure!🤣
Never tired of seeing this one, Jay. - so keep posting it!
The only thing im tired of is that i missed this boat. This offers some unique pints it the “sports” watch category. The extremely light weight and the unusual chronograph construction. As we have discussed, Covid accelerated the taste for the more inform...
Ahhhh….the whirling dervish of chronographs!
Quite amazing when the foudroyante is engaged. No… I don’t think I will ever get sick of looking at yours!
I need to post some videos.
Or I need to take a picture with a slow shutter speed to capture that action.
The more I look at the line sport collection
The more I feel it will become a design classic.
That’s interesting to think about.
My mind shifted gradually on this one, it took a few years. The same for the other reference in this line up. I can see these sitting in the same space design wise as some of those really interesting IWC/Porsche Ocean 2000s. Not for everyone, but perhaps ...
Fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
Yours looks to be in much better shape than mine. Mine has seen some rough and tumble.

Agreed. At the time and even now I have several JLC Duometres, 2 at the time were Chronographs with a foudroyant function so I did not think about the Centigraphe more those reasons...
I even thought about trading one of them for the Centigraphe back then as they were relatively the same values. How times have changed 🤪🤣🤣🤣
