Hi ED
Sorry if I have muddle things up in my post.
What I meant to say is that the "Limited" edition is actually the regular edition that JLC now listed in their website and I limits to 75 pieces (i think).
It is not linked to the Venice Film festival and hence not a "Venice" piece, as I may have inadvertently described in my earlier post.
There is only one (unique) piece in WG release for the Venice Film festival, i.e the one with the zodiac on the dial.
Then why is the regular limited version different from those in your post?
I do believe, JLC presented the proto piece during their initial release to the various markets.
Thereafter, some minor changes were introduced and hence the (left hand) piece that you see in my post's first photo.
I hope it is somewhat clearer now. My apologies for the confusion.

JLC Master Grande Tradition Grande Complication
On a previous visit to the Jaeger LeCoultre Beverly Hills Boutique I had the pleasure of handling a very special grand complication, the JLC Master Grande Tradition Grande Complication. This watch was introduced two years ago by Jaeger LeCoultre at SIHH 2...
Thanks for sharing Ed.
Jerome was in SG about 1-2 years back and he brought along this piece. I remembered the excitement and immidiately after his presentation, I moved swiftly to asked if I could have the "1st hand". I had it in my hand and it was quite hefty. Of course it ha...
Very cool that you got to see it first hand
Hi Pat, I agree with you, the sound was incredible loud. Thanks for checking out the pics and video. Regards, ED-209
A piece of Poetry.
The only thing I don't like is the dauphine hands... I don't feel they are at their place here, on such a dial. This detail apart, the dial is just fabulous. And if you found that the MMR sounds loud, the MGT GC is a neat step above. A great watch. Best, ...
The dial is amazing
Thanks Nicholas for your thoughts on Master Grande Tradition. Regards, ED-209
really regret not making to the event at the Boutique..
probably the only chance in my lifetime to see this piece of art... fantastic photos... and if Nico is right..the gong must be heavenly...
There's always awesome pieces whenever we visit
Hi ocwatching, Hope to see you at a future JLC BH Boutique event. Regards, ED-209
Thank you for sharing...
this with us and those beautifully taken pictures. It is a great watch to play with and to study the dial and movement but it is not such a comfortable watch to wear if you have a small wrist. The heft of the watch is very noticeable, as well as the heigh...
Wow, the limited and the unique versions of the MGTGC
Hi W72, Wow, you have some incredible pics of the MGTGC. I learned something new and didn't know about the limited and unique versions from Venice. Thank you so much for posting the pics and all the wonderful details of these two very unique pieces. Regar...

Thanks for the clarification and
Hi W72, Thanks for the clarification and sorry I misread the post. Now that I had a chance to read your wonderful post a second time I understand it clearly. Very cool photos of a beautiful timepiece. Regards, ED-209
That is it. I much prefer these hands than the Dauphine.
The Venice piece unique sublimates the MGT GC. Definitely. One I didn't have the chance to see it in the flesh, but I will ask JLC if it is possible to do so. Best, Nicolas
Hi Nicolas..
Glad you like the Dauphine hands. The do look more classic. As for viewing it in flesh, the WG is gone - delivered. But I have a feeling that you will get a chance to see it someday. /W72
You're welcome and...
And thanks for reading this post. Hope that you get a chance to see one in person. Regards, ED-209
A master piece! :)
Absolutely stunning! :) Thank you for sharing this with us! Best Blomman
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for reading the post and checking out the pics and video. I think W72's post is even more impressive. Regards, ED-209
