Midweek choice - just some shots from the Master Compressor Memovox..
Hello, everybody ! Just thought to share 2 quick pics of a timepiece, we do not see here often.. I even would call it an underestimated model, still below the radar, in a way.. r If you don't like to know a bit more about the tic-tac, you may go directly ...
More and more appreciation for this watch.
Now that I own the Amvox One and the TT Polaris 68, I thought, many times, about closing the " journey into time " with this one. This one I had, in 2003 or 2004, and that I sold some two years after. A Watch I miss... You are Lucky to own one, my friend....
Cool piece. IMO the master compressor series is underappreciated...
...especially the first generation pieces (including the MCM). The Master Compressors are a functional 41.5mm with reasonable thickness, yet they still have good wrist presence for those to whom that's important. The compressor keys are very convenient, m...
+1 on all you said ..Thx for your nice words & kind looking.. Also nice to know..
.. that we both share the affection vs our MCM's ! Continue to wear yours in the best of your health ! Best, hs
Thanks, although...
Re-reading what I wrote, its certainly most clear to construe my words as if I owned the MCM, but I don't...instead, I have the Master Compressor Chrono, which I love very much. Cheers, John
Great post. HS
All great points, and a real fun watch. Since I have a soft spot for blue dials, I was fortunate to land the platinum version. I also love the alarm sound. Here is a shot to accompany yours Best, Joe ...
When we meet, try to bring it with you, please. A Photo session of this rare bird...
would be great! Best, Joe. Nicolas
Joe, Thx for the nice sentiment, kind words + pic !.. My Best in return !! :)
So, continue to wear yours in the best of your health ! Cheers, hs
Time Has Vindicated Magali...
Hi hs, This has been a welcome overview and refresher on a watch and a series that I love. Judging by the enthusiastic response of the forum, it seems I'm not alone. Considering how much resistance these designs faced on debut (and you can still find thes...
I well remember these times where the welcome was shy, to say the least.
And I am, like you, very happy to see that Magali's vision has been awarded and recognized, after all these years. Yes, it is a very special Watch, which is unique in the category. And the beginning of a very nice adventure, too. I will try to find someth...
Hello, Tim.. What a nice write-up of your perceptions, feelings and "raison d'étre" .. :))
+1 on practically all you said & commented !! And yes, although I had started my JLC-safa with Reverso(s) and the " regular" Master Series, with Master Moon & M Geographic, the later addition to theJLC portfolio with TT Polaris, Amvox 1, etc, also for me ...
Fantastic shots! I love this watch. I don't know if
I could pull off wearing it, but my God, what a great design!
Thx for your nice words & kind looking !.. All the Best ! :)).. And
Yes, sometimes, she kind of sticks to ones wrist, because it's indeed difficult to put her into the box again !.. - Funny, that she is a piece which grows in/on you, in a way.. Again, thanks and my Best, hs
