Hi Everyone! Today, I had the pleasure of visiting the JLC boutique and trying on two of the latest Duometre models: the Quantieme Lunaire (Ref. Q604848J) and the Chronograph Moon (Ref. Q622252J). After parting with my Unique Travel Time (which, though be...  

Love the curves on the case vs older model

And you don’t usually see steel duometres around; most in gold.

...  

would only buy a new version, love the new case more round/wearable and I like new 🥰

Not a fan of the open dial "The Joker" look.

I prefer the closed vs. open dial, I like the color better and the overall look is more appealing to me. I also think it is more versatile.

I like the new case and crystal, don't like the new crown, seems cheapened compared to the old one, HATE that the chrono dials have a tachy scale that sacrificed the seconds track at 2 and 10. At least the steel blue dial is a complete and cohesive watch,... 

so not nice to read the time under the cuff

the correct answer is blue!!

Now it’s not, but in the flesh I might think otherwise, although the open dial reminds me a little too much of ‘the Joker’.

do you prefer the blue? you are THE authority on Duometre..and responsible for the last one I bought 😄

I prefer date to chrono may be ?

This is the third duometre in my colleciton. I really like the dial color and in the steel case. I am undecided about the running sub second dial. ...  

I think the steel / blue looks better. But I am with Nicolas, you should hunt for the enamal dial variant, it is absolutely stunning. You've mentioned the jumping second hand, to me it is an unwelcome distraction to a calming piece. ...  

And go instead for the real deal with a pre-owned WG UTT, Chrono or QL. Especially, the black dial Chrono in WG, Paris UTT in WG and QL enamel dial in WG. And all for a small fraction of the ambitious asking price for the newer ones.

I'm biased as I was able to receive one of the last one's available. I heard it was discontinued shortly after I received mine. Thanks JLC for making it available (sent from Geneva). The WG QL Duometre was the best fit for me at 40.5 mm! The Moon Phase di...  

The dial on the blue one is not on the same level as the movement. Maybe consider the previous version? Better in terms of the finishing and better priced.
