A review on the Jaeger Lecoultre SIHH 2015. Duometre Unique Travel Time, chiseled dial.
Duometre Unique Travel Time. That name sounds familiar to you since its unveil on the 20th of November 2012, here, in your favourite JLC forum: It has first been unveiled in white gold, a limited edition of 100 pièces for the Paris Boutique ( 2013 Collec...
Great review, always stunned when looking at the movement
and I'm with you: the Paris Boutique edition is the benchmark.
Beautiful watch.
I'm very taken by the chiselled dial I think it looks great and really makes the two dials stand out beautifully. I also like the different colours they have used for the hands and time zone hours. Those colours plus the blue and silver? on the globe make...

Thank you for this review
