A pair of the most incredible watches. Technically the Hybris Mechanica 11 is a technological force to behold. It wears great and although thin does not feel fragile. 4 patents and completely understated. It sits well on the wrist and quietly goes about c...
I am still waiting to listen to the definitive HM 11, but what I heard sounded promising. Now, I would have preferred a HM 11 WITHOUT Tourbillon, I must say. As for the Reverso Tribute Gyrotourbillon, I was totally smitten by it. The size, but most import...
Nevertheless, my heart tells me the Hybris Mechanica 11 because it would be more wearable on my wrist, it holds my favourite complication (minute repeater) and a nice frozen dial. And, last but not least, a Tourbillon. I own a JLC Master Tourbillon in ste...
The gyros escapement is mesmerizing as you have seen. I still have yet to hear the song of the HM 11 and that may call to me. Such temptations. Cheers.
This is why I have to hope that JLC continue to develop the new technologies of the Gyrotourbillon in the future and hope we see it in a Master case? 12.5mm thick.
Of course, in the case of the JLC gyrotourbillon, you cannot avoid a bigger size than a classic tourbillon due to its 3D revolution. But for me it is more a "strength demonstration" than a watch you can wear everyday... which is not the case of the Hybris...
choice, very difficult ...... I had the Gyro on my wrist during the SIHH 2016 and was completely blown away, mesmerizing...but the Hybris Mechanica 11 is special, really special, classy, thin, a superb minute repeater and a lovely tourbillon, but the Gyro...
To improve its accuracy. Faster then the ones in the brand most notable for multi-axis tourbillons, Gruebel Forsey. I am not sure that I totally agree with Nicolas that we shouldn\'t like to see more gyro models. I\'m not too concerned however as they are...
I love it that much that I wouldn't like to see it " vulgarized " as the Tourbillon is, nowadays. Remember only 15 years ago? The Tourbillon was something mesmerizing. Exclusive, Elitist, Rare ( quite rare, to be honest ), Luxurious. Now? Every brand, eve...
Hi Mitch, Long time! Great memories. HMII no question. The size will suit you perfectly, it's not stupidly thick - it's a crowning piece of awesomeness for all the best reasons in tune with JLC's raison d'etre and effortlessly understated. Still a great c...
By their nature any tourbillon is a conference watch but these two would certainly both be great boredom relievers during a meeting. Frankly the Gyro 4 would have me miss huge swathes of meetings. I am ok with the HM 11 dial as it really does fly under th...
for conferences. I find 2handers too slow, so this suits because of the whirlwind AND it has an overcoil to boot But seriously, you have a nice problem. Hmmm, I know you love art and I wonder if you could commission a dial of some description. Enamel or e...
