Hello Gary! I can well understand both your dissapointing, and your ...
... excitement at same time. Dissapointment at not finding the new Red, which you are anxious to see in the flesh, but excitement for having this one of a kind opportunity of viewing (and trying yourself) a genuine vintage example, which was used as base for this new Tribute.
Very nice photographs, and a wonderful setting with the Red motif on the Boutique floor.
As I told in a previous post, I´m eagerly waiting for my own "Red", being among the first 5 reservations made (with a deposit) at the Milano Boutique, and promised for last April, and later promised for May (which ends tomorrow, and no news from JLC Milano!).
Will you please tell us, in which Country JLC Boutique you had this nice & interesting experience? I feel that all these preamble means that the real launch of the Tribute is very near!
Well, it seems I´ll be waiting some more time to wear this beauty!
Best cordial regards, Abel.
So I got invited by the Boutique and the dress code was "Anything Red"
To go with the theme, I put on something red and something square as well. This was a day I was so looking forward to for a long time. I arrived much much earlier to avoid the nightmare traffic jam. The red floor sticker in the boutique is very nice and b...
I'm seeing red!
Wow, what an opportunity, Gary! Thanks for sharing your visit to the Boutique. That blue Reverso looks awesome, too. Best, respo
The Blue was nice too
Didnt get to play with it as it was already in position in the display. Very hard to capture with my camera and there is reflections and lights everywhere. The best picture i have of it is this....
Just been the the JLC boutique at MBS in Singapore and they say it would not be here till
OCT! Would love to see the difference in red between the old and the new rouges. cheers PAt
I am RED with envy?
great opportunity... looking forward to seeing the Rouge in person...
I have been told that two were delivered at the Paris Boutique, but immedialtely sold.
We'll have a Red Night in Paris, too... So, what about your feelings about the Vintage Red, compared to the Tribute Black? About the volumes, i mean? Best, Nicolas
Am always a classic kind of guy
Tho it is considered very small by today's standard, I liked the Rouge's small classic size very much. Thanks to my small wrist, it actually sits very nicely and I would imagine, its a watch you easily forget you are wearing. Much like my 34mm MUT. While ...
Yes, Foowy, that is the amazing thing wwith The Original Rouge.
You totally forget the size... Which is not that small, by the way... To focus on the dial. Best, Nicolas
Here's a side profile picture of the Rouge
clicked the insert button too fast earlier. I think its balanced nicely between the thickness and the dimension in terms of the "wrist feel" as compared to the TT I would imagine if the vintages came as ultra thin and in its classic dimensions, it would f...
You are absolutely right. The profile shot is a great idea.
The TT R looks much thinner, by the way, because of its bigger case. The original has a lot of character, I find. Thanks! Nicolas
Wow. That looks great!
Thanks for the pictures. A dream to own such a vintage watch and even to try it. You were very lucky

You are spot-on for the mixed feelings I had between dissappointment and excitement.
Abel Once again, we have to wait patiently This was at the Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia boutique. Gary
Man, I missed this...
Terry at the boutique had asked me to attend, but I had to be in Singapore on that day. Did they host a dinner at Shook? Think that was the initial plan. Gorgeous pics!
Seeing the vintages that close....I was already all Shook-ed up
Dennis Actually I skipped the dinner so I could avoid the traffic jam getting out of town : ) was already full-filled by the vintages. By the way, did you receive a separate JLC event invite for 3rd June? This is a bigger event with an actual polo game I ...
Yep I did
But i'll have to skip that one too as I'll be in Bangkok. I'm actually waiting for the Reverso Calendar to hit KL before blowing my 2012 budget on something else. Haha. Cheers, Dennis
thats a great choice too
and we shall all wait to see what is this other one you going to blow your money on
I actually had a chance seeing the Rouge one here ...
Nice one indeed. Of course the original 1931 is even better ....
