I was tempted by the True Second as a very practical and interesting watch but there were three things which counted against it: I found the case just a little too large, I feel that the dial is a little too severe, and it should be a Geomatic rather than a Geophysic.
The Tribute to me is just perfect!
Jaeger Lecoultre modern Geophysics: Which size is your favorite?
All is in the title. With the Tribute, Jaeger Lecoultre tried to achieve a compromise: Keeping the spirit and the charm of the original case, and modernizing it, with a more acceptable size for the current market ( The original is 35 mm big, hich is fine ...
Tribute first.
Then, the others. I like them all. It wouldn't be easy to say no to any of them anyway. Love the movement in the True Seconds, so appealing. Vte
always...the original
true seconds without a date window if that happens. Best, mahesh.,
Tribute
Tribute has perfect balance and with the thin-ish bezel, face of the watch appear larger than "average" 38.5mm sized watch. -Riku
I had the tribute in SS and ...
I let it go for a foolish reason. (I'm trying to get one!). My current set is made of: - Tribute in Pt. - UT in SS - True seconds in SS My preferences falls into the Tribute in Pt, because of the wrist presence. About the size, they are on the small side ...
I made the same mistake
I also own the PT and it seemed so far ahead of the SS that it felt ok to move on from it. Well i have yet to find a watch that has given me equal pleasure. Perhaps the watch collecting lifestyle isn\'t complete without these missteps. But unlike lost gir...
Tribute for me
The first one that is! I\'ve left it in the U.K. While living out here in HK and wore it this past week for the first time in ages while back there on business. I had thought of letting it go but I don\'t think I can do that! It\'s just about perfect in a...
I am a fan of the original ( vintage one ) and I know the Geophysic quite well. At the point to be too demanding with it.
The proportions of the Tribute case are, in my opinion, perfect, and good enough till 41, 6 mm. After... Thanks for your feedback, my friend. Best, Nicolas
Well, let me think.. the Tribute/ss for me, well balanced.. Nest the UT.. So I am lucky..
.. & Happy by owning these two ! Am a real fan of both, which nicely complement each other, IMHO. Thx for posing the interesting Q, providing food for thought ! Cheers my friend & Best/ hs
Tribute and UT, had the
opportunity to wear the latter and sizewise it is perfect on my wrist ..... The smaller Tribute however is still big enough too, haven't tried it yet, but know that even smaller sizes can be still very compelling on the wrist (like 35). I judge there is n...
1958 tribute is magical
I actually love the case size and shape of the world time, but at least for me the 1958 tribute, though smaller than I normally like, is without question a modern day legend. With that being said I would never buy another watch less than 40mm. And given t...
Tough call...not sure I could choose
The sizes of the TT1958, TS and UT all seems so well-suited for what they are. TT1958...just perfect at a modern 38.5mm...could have gone up 1mm, but beyond that would have lost charm. Just fine, and very wearable at 38.5mm, which looks bigger given its w...
Mi placer mi amigo Nicolas!! Yes, the original is a Big challenge...
... and almost an impossible here in my hunting grounds. But what a rewarding and charming piece it is!! Enjoy your my friend, and hope to see it again next time we visit. I wish you remember this shot! Lol! Hagwe Nicolas! Abrazos! Abel ...
I really need to try them on!!
I am a big fan of the True Second but on the paper, the size of the Tribute is more in line with what I wear usually. I will hopefully try them on if available in Amsterdam Schiphol Airport next week. Last time I was on transit there, I was impressed by t...
Sadly, no Geophysic in Shiphol.
Very desappointing, I will have to wait to try these on! Best, É
Tribute for me as well
The proportion just works. I tried the 35mm original at the Phillips Geneva auction preview in London and it just felt a little too small for my wrist (somewhat wide wrist shape). Great pics! Cheers, Brandon
