Thank you for this enlightening review. Really liked the photos and explanations to the photos. Makes it much easier to understand how this marvel works.
The in-depth review of the Jaeger Lecoultre Hybris Mechanica Cal 185 " Reverso Quadriptyque "( 2021 ) .
The Reverso Quadriptyque was " digitally " issued in April 2021, since there was no physical watch fair this year. So it took me some time to be able to see this new masterpiece in real life, which I could admire during a trip to the Manufacture in Februa...
Thanks for this amazing post!
And of course for taking the time to detail everything so thoroughly. This made my day: "You have a drawer on the bottom of the box - totally mechanical - that allows you to set the watch - you enter the number of days which have elapsed since the watch s...
This is an insane level of creativity.
To call it a watch is a misnomer. It is genius mechanical art. Thank you for the photo-by-photo description.
Well, as someone who has trouble changing a strap this might be a little too complicated for me.
Seriously though, what a magnificent thing that is and not just the technical achievements but the sheer beauty of it. Truly a work of art. I’ve started saving up! Regards Kev.
Thanks Nico - fantastic watch and review!
Any wrist shots? As you say, it would be great if some of the ingenuity could trickle down into the main collection. All the best, Jon
Holy cow! That price tag!
Wow! Just wow! This is an amazing timepiece. Definitely super expensive though - and I remember when I saw this watch it was too big for my wrist. But I like the concept. I really like the Trebuchet hammers. I REALLY LIKE THE BOX!!! Everything about it is...
Thank YOU for posting this super rare watch!
I totally didn't know about the box! I like this box A LOT! It's really a great part about this watch! As this box is just an amazing piece of kit! Really enjoyed your detailed review, I've read it twice now!
Thank you for this superb review, and what a review !!! Great art, just like the watch, which demonstrates the know-how of JLC which reaches the summits !
If they could go back to the plains where " normal " people are, with a few innovative whatches a thousand times less complex than this one, they would make people happy here !
What a piece of mechanical art and thank you for the review!
I always enjoy reading your unbiased watch reviews. Do you know how power is transmitted to drive the astronomical complications on the base? Also given the complexity of the movement and 6 years of development time, would they even make money by selling ...
It's a beast. A masterclass of horology.
But I do agree with you, they shouldn't forget about their core audience.
Wow. Thank you, Nico for this introduction.
This is the JLC I am missing. The creativity and self-confidence in this watch is second to none. So many good choices have been made here, with the (to me) best ones being the size of the watch and the focus on the user experience demonstrated by the box...
I see in one of the pictures...
- the one without the guilloche cover over the dial - the grande date...aka the "outsized date" in AL&S parlance...that JLC was forced to give Lange for 10 years back in the 90s. JLC couldn't use it until 2002 when it showed up (a little early) in the...
Nice explainer
I really love the over the top complicated JLCs personally. Especially with the two sides.
