A Tribute To Week...
Hello JLC-fans, Most of you might think of me as a hard-core vintage nut... Well, I am! But, when I look into my watch box, I do see some modern watches as well. One thing I find interesting is that of the few JLC watches I have bought new from AD since 2...

Mesmerizing shot! Passed up on both the US n EU versions a couple of times .... Not sure why .... Now I know I am kicking myself ....
Ah, Bill....
Your first shot really makes me want to jump in... To the Sea! :) Great pair of photos, my friend! Best Blomman
Other Tributes
A couple other Tributes to match my TT Deep Sea. (Tudor Heritage Black Bay, IWC Vintage Collection Aquatimer). ...
Great trio of Tributes!
The Aquatimer I was really close to jump on when IWC released the Vintage Collection... IMO, the best of the IWC Vintage Collection. Best Blomman
Beautiful Trio .. And a nice, black & mystic box.. :)

Ah, the US version of the TT Reverso!
We don't see many of these here! Very nice, please share more. :) Best Blomman
My contribution.
From this summer … Since then I went back to the black croc strap. I like this picture a lot … but I just wish I flew a company that cleans its windows better ;-) ...
Tribute To Week Day #2 I plan to wear...
TT Polaris 68, full lume dial version. So, what's your plan? :) Best Blomman ...
Same here, for tomorrow.
I wore my original Polaris for the last 5 days, it will be time to change! No lume dial. But hey, I am very happy with it! Best, Nicolas ...

Hej, my friend.. Didn't have time on day 1.. So I'll enter with 2 pics.. :)
Hope, dear Blomman, that's still ok - and not too late ;) I guess, you remember some hilarious days , when the first DSA ( EU it was) arrived.. .. in Paris .. City of lights, city with friends.. Some reflections.. in front of a (well known) certain jardin...
Thank you kindly.. This Duo can tell a very nice story.. Of friendship !..
.. one can be happy to have such memories !.. Thank you very much, again ! :) :) Best, hs
Hej HS! :)
How could I forget?! Such a great moment! :) Well, never too late - especially to this post as I will go on for one week. This was only day #1... Best, dear friend Blomman
You saw it.. I entered two.. so I assume for days 1 & 2.. Guess I've got to ..
.. finally try to get the TTP 65, as I unfortunately had missed the SS- version from the Paris Boutique; the P,atinum one was beyond my reach.. Welll, for the moment I am lookng forward, to what the SIHH will unveil. - and I also neanwhile developed some ...
Sounds fine with me !.. Yep .. Best for your day :))
. Or as they say : Bonus - Melior - Optimus ( Citation ref : Baron..) Again best, hs
I have mixed feelings here...
I agree with you that they are great looking watches but as a vintage collector, I am wondering how these "fake" old watches will age. They already pretends to be old... How will a fake patina looks in 20 or 30 years (patina on patina)?... These watches w...
Interesting thoughts...
Hello Goldenlutin, Interesting to read your thoughts on the subject. I am no pure vintage watch collector. So my thoughts are a bit different... Guess I am more like Dexter, living two lifes... But in my case it's more one foot in the past and one in the ...
+1 on all you said,my friend.. To summarize.. - although some would think differently
.. I LOVE the Tribute idea and making of It brings back The Spirit of these distant older times; Yes, its re-Edition , but if done carefully, coherent and faithful to the Originals, these are very nice endeavours ; And , same as you, if JLC ever does some...
Thanks for your answer, my point was/is....
First of all, I am happy that people enjoy their re-editions. My point was just to say that in an historic perspective, these re-editions do not refer to the period we do live in but to the past. That is why I wrote that they don't have an own story to te...
I still not really agree with you, Goldenlutin
But, that is the great thing with this forum - we are all entitled to our own opinions. And there is no rule that we all have to agree. But, I must ask since your argument is that if you change something when making a new version it is OK, but not OK to m...
That is a very interesting point of view, Goldenlutin.
These Tributes have another mission: To allow people to discover the past of a brand. If some didn't know the Polaris before its re edition, many more didn't know the the Deep Sea Alarm existed. To revisit the past helps to visit, to know it. Can we compl...
To answer some of your questions...
Dear Nicolas, Sorry for the late answer. Yes, I do own a few modern JLC. As an example, I own a Reverso Duoface (first execution). I like it because indications on both sides of the case where not available in the 30ies (except the Movado chronograph prot...
Re: nothing is more beautiful than real old patina....... on a NOS piece !
Well Goldenlutin - on that we agree. Please feel free to share some of yours that you mentioned. Best Blomman
I do agree in a way but it is not exactly the same movement inside...
In addition the teardrop models are more common/easy to find. At least I found mine quite easily. Best, Goldenlutin
When I think that I missed a black dialed one, some years ago, for nothing!
LOVE this one, GL. Always wanted to do the pair with the rectangular sister, which I also missed the very same day. Both black dials. Some more to show? ;) Best, Nicolas
Fake watches they are not
While I understand your reasoning, to call these watches " fake" is quite inaccurate and offensive. I myself was not born early enough to be able to purchase these watches at their original releases. I'm however thankful that JLC was able to offer these "...
Compliments on your arguments .. Like a lot the heritage and DNA .. And the recall of Time
.. Also very much liked your concept of passing on the piece and the stories.. our stories. And after all, these are excellent watches.. Best, hs
Aaah Goldenlutin...
Most of thre current JLC production has a strong link with the padt, and can be considered as Homages or Tributes. I hear you as a vinage collector, I totally agree with you that nothing will replace vintage watches. Are these Tribute here to replace the ...
