It was a record ...
Hi Jerome,
I mentioned the temperature over the New Year because it was the highest on record for Melbourne - 41.2oC on New Years Day before a cool change thankfully dropped the temperature by 14oC. Adelaide had record temperatures as well and a lot of beer was consumed!
Don't worry, Melbourne is not always that warm in summer (average peak temperature is 26oC in December-January), so you should still visit one day.
Happy new year.

Diving for Christmas holidays?
It's time to end the year now. For those lucky few who will finish in the swimming pool or in fresher waters I have a very serious wach to propose. Jaeger-LeCoultre Compressor Diving GMT Although you saw it here several times since it was presented last s...
Wow ,great job on the info !
can ' t wait to see these beauties in person ! Might have to take up diving just to experience the features that these watches have to offer .
thanks for the wonderful pics and update......
i had the privilege to see and feel the diver gmt at the boutique...... indeed it is beautiful and very well-made..... and at such a reasonable price is quite a steal for a titanium dive watch.... certainly looking forward to see the entire range soon.......
Thanks Jerome for the great post
Now you have set the tone for diving watches in 08. JLC seems to have a serious objective of taking a slice of th market with awesome introductions. I can't wait to go and try them on. Happy New Year. Bill
Not been in the water
since I saw " Jaws " the movie in the 1970s Thanks Jerome for the report and photos. 1000 m seems more than the average punter needs but I guess people who do this sort of thing like to have a "safety margin" built in....no? Purely on looks, the simple ti...
42oC on New Years Eve ...
A hot New Year for Melbourne. 1000m seems like a resaonable safety margin for the backyard swimming pool! Hope Purists in the North are managing to keep warm. Thanks for the great post, Jerome. I do like that articulated rubber bracelet. Andrew
Shades of Bvlgari
G'day mate! We threw a prawn on the barbie for Christmas too in Singapore.... but rain stopped play! I just remembered that Bvlgari had a similar rubber-clad bracelet for one of their diving watches. Happy New Year, MTF
Thanks Andrew....
Hi Australia seems to be too hot for me. It's not hot enough here to need a swimming pool. Cheers Dje

Wel, I'm a bit >>>
hesitating... Seriously, like you, Jerome, I think that the simpler is the nicer, and yes, I 'm considering the simpler diving watch as an alternative to my Panerais. I have to say that I'm not very keen on the Chrono, which is a bit too busy for me, but ...
