I've always admired the MUT Perpetual...
...but fear that the simplified design with reduced adjusters is less practical than it appears. A single pusher for everything does not help if the calendar goes out of sync. It takes a brief time to look around, say in chrono24, to find examples of out of sync perpetuals. Then off to service it should go. Same with IWC adjustment by crown. I would prefer multiple pushers.
But among these perpetuals above, i've always liked the silver one despite being less legible than the black.
Tried one back in 2018, a real beauty... but still haven't pulled the trigger to this date.
Jaeger Lecoultre Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar 39 mm. The three original versions.
In one picture: Steel, white gold and rose gold. ( Steel on the right, white gold on the left ). These first three received a warm welcome, in 2013, and rightly so. Still, my favorite remains the steel black which came two years after. Over the white gold...
underrated PC, at this price nothing beats JLC
WG white with grain dial, like the dial texture. Next will be Steel Black dial. Best, Mahesh., ...
I adore the grey version
Such a wonderful watch. Never once saw a perpetual calender in the wild. It is an esoteric man’s watch I believe. Someone who reads a lot. I think my grand-dad has a perpetual calender hidden in his collection. Not close to him, so I think I will never se...
It is a cool geek’s watch
Just look at those commenting on this post - i know one is a cool geek and another got into cool details of out-of-sync perpetuals.
I don’t wear it much in the summer…
… but it does get worn quite frequently in the cooler months! ...
I also purchased a grey strap from JLC
which has less contrast than the black alligator. ...
+1 Black
IMHO the Blue is too much of a good thing. Perhaps more gorgeous yet less versatile.

I usually prefer a black dial to a silver one
But I love the silver dial version ot this piece, I hope to be able to get one in the future
UN UN UN!
Ludwig’s perpetual calender is nice. Forward backward no problemo. I’m hoping u’d get that piece among the sea of perpetual calenders you’d been assessing.
Lovely ref
The blue dial with enamel over guilloche is my favorite. I'd love to find one show up on market. I just love how it is so dramatic, art deco styling. My favorite in thay series was the moon version however. The WG grey dial my favorite after that. Overall...
the white gold case with blue enameled guilloché dial does it for me
...but the MSRP on that one, yikes (!)
I love reading the discussions here! All models look nice to me!
I own this piece since early 2019 and it was indeed an excellent value when I bought it. Once, the date/day were out of sync and had to send it in for service. It is a keeper to remain in my collection. ...
Dr Strange 🤩
Six years ago, I let go my black steel version. How lucky I got this boutique exclusive steel version ie Dr strange watch pre owned in mint condition ! ...
Hmm.. My first thought would maybe be the blue..
..with this Guilloché dial, but more realistically it is the black dial, I might pick, if I was to change to a more up-to-date one.. As in fact I have an older Master PC in WG,with 8 days PR (which I got in 2018, used but in very good condition) with the ...
Here you go !..
Although I am quite happy with it, guess I shoud have chosen the black one, (back in 2015), when it still was quite affordable also in the New.. But honestly, mainly take it to theatre, and rather in the cooler months. - Already had played with the though...
