When I was at the Manufacture, I was allowed to wear for one day a 2010 novelty... And to take some pics. This watch will be presented at the next SIHH, but I'm authorized, in exclusivity, to speak about it before this date. Who said that the " C " of JLC...
...but "Nicolas" is simply another name for the Devil, cruelty's Administrator. LOL. I think it is a next generation of the Chonometre in Master Compressor Form -- a corss between the Extreme LAB and the Geophysic that are on the mountain ascent right now...
And the Geophysic Globe is obviously there ... but instead of "Polar" year 2010 will be the international year of "Biodiversity". Maybe there will even be a "World heritage" connection? Obviously a stab in the dark from me, again ... Cannot wait for Janua...
a Memovox...... it has an M on the back...... Besides it is only logical that JLC would bring it back.... It is a terrific mechanism, very unique to JLC (I know that there are other alarms but not to the quality & sound of JLC- the sonatais an exception b...
of a new Extreme variant climbing the mountain along with the Geomatic and the LAB, I'm guessing a smaller version (42-44mm) of the Extreme series, but w/o world time, perhaps a chrono, possibly with deeper water test (300m?). That's all I've got. -Dean
Chapter ring - as it stands out here around the globe. It is not on the current Master series, nor on the Geomatic. It is also a bit odd in that it doesn't look like a minute chapter ring (60 per 360 degrees). It looks about 120 per 360 degrees. A "C"ompa...
Very cruel indeed Nicolas. My guess, or maybe wish, is a M C Memovex Geographic in Titanium, someting between 42mm and 44mm. It is my best shot with the clues you showed us. It never hurts to dream.Cheers, Mark V
Geophysic re-edition will be unveiled at future SIHH 2010 (or may be even earlier I think "C" is for Chronometer that legendary 1958 Geophysic undoubtedly had been present
I won't ruin the teasing, but I played with the mystery watch today, and all I can say is I know that many people will be pleased by this upcoming launch (including myself...but this is maybe too much of a hint if I say so ! ). All you have to do is be pa...
with a little help from Franco Cologni I have narrowed it down to 2 choices.... 1) The Geophysic Chronometer originally from 1959 - stunning, simple and elegant and certainly a look that is missing from the current line up. 2) Memovox originally from 1950...
I did consider those too but I think I was really hoping for an alarm piece not associated with anybody else. A sneak hint of the dial would be nice...???!!! Pretty please... Yours my cheeky friend, Andy.
a couple of planets in the logo that are not present on the back of the Geomatic. Sun and moon perhaps? "Astromatic"? "Astrophysic"? Equation of time? "Equamatic"? "Equaphysic"? with some of the high tech stuff from the Lab thrown in? This message has bee...
Hi Nicolas, If the Future-matic was re-intoduced, that would be very cool. I like the balanced, simple dial. But if I had to bet money, I'd say the Geophysic Chronometer. It is also such a beauty. I am hoping for a nice silver dial. I can't wait to learn ...
JLC told me that I could post it as soon as I wanted. Since October. But once again, I preferred to make a post rather than posting a or several pics. Best, Nicolas
