Adding another Jaeger LeCoultre this time in Steel
I find myself in the market for another JLC after receiving a sizable and totally unexpected bonus at work. I’m thinking STEEL to compliment my recently acquired one in Rose Gold. I admire many of the brand’s novelties but probably looking Geographic or Memovox for a 7.25” wrist. Steer me toward something exceptional with a preowned price below 10K USD. Thanks!

Reverso!
This is my favorite, and it's steel, and it works on a bigger wrist (mine is much smaller than yours), and it trades for just within your price range: the Grande Reverso Sun-Moon with the 8-day movement. ...
That’s a Beauty!
I am so appreciative of the Reverso and it’s heritage but while admiring it from afar I likely will stay with a round case profile. Thanks for sharing your exquisite Sun-Moon!
my thoughts
I had a look at your watch pictures posted here to try to understand your profile as a collector (sorry I always do my homework before answering). I gleaned you have a GS (beautiful piece btw), a Rolex OP (great choice), a Seiko Urushi (I have the same pi...
Wow! Thanks
I’d certainly consider the LUC.... thanks for such a thoughtful and in-depth response.
Not many LUCs I don't like, but...

The non TS version is beautiful
I much prefer the sword lume hands to the TS. If you can find one, I’ll be happy for you.
I recommend looking at the discountinued Master Compressor Series..

Perhaps
Maybe a bit too sporty for me but I think they are very cool tool watches. I’d have to try them on. Who knows? Maybe they would bowl me over.
