Interesting review!
One technical achievement with these watches must be to set the stones of the case, to close the metal onto them to lock them in position and then to get a nice shape and finish with an invisible gap with the sapphire dial.
You just forgot the wristshot Nicolas ;-)

Jaeger Lecoutre Rendez Vous Minute Repeater Ivy. The In Depth Review.
Unveiled at Watches and Wonders, in Hong Kong, in September 2014, the Jaeger Lecoultre Rendez Vous Minute Repeater Ivy is the second automatic watch housing this complication, after the Hybris Mecanica 11, introduced in the catalogue 8 months before. This...
My thoughts
I think the case with the diamonds and especially the dial are very beautiful, design, implementation and overall, very well done. I do think the diamonds on the lever of the minute repeater are a bit too much, I would have wished for something more discr...
I am not too much into diamonds / jewelled watchs, either...
So, I can understand your concern, here... Still, a Minute Repeater in a Rendez Vous case is a great idea, me think... Now, this automatic movement... Not sure... Best, and thanks for your input, CC. Nicolas

JLC watch movements are the best
In my opinion there is absolutely nothing wrong with self winding movement in this outstanding lady's piece. JLC watch movements are #1. To my knowledge, Patek, Vacheron, IWC as well as some others, use JLC movements in their pieces without hesitations.
Captivating dial!
However, I think the movement deserves finishing commensurate with a complication as sacred as the MR. An alternative could be to seal up the back, albeit with an intricate engraving worthy of the front=) A beautiful timepiece, nonetheless. J
