UTS is great...

 

Thanks for the kind words, Gary.  With respect to UTS, I can't recommend them enough; if Herr Spinner's distinctly Teutonic style appeals to you, then by all means take the plunge.  While my 600M Pro Dive Chrono certainly doesn't play in the same sandbox as the MCDC in terms of movement (can one even mention a 7750 in the same breath as a 751D?), it's a very unique and capable watch, nonetheless.  I also own a UTS 3000M, which remains my favorite watch in my humble collection.  Of course the MCDC is now gunning for that spot... ;-)

Regards,
Adam

This is my first post, though I've been a long-time lurker here. Anyway, I wanted to say that my MCDC arrived this Saturday, and guys, I'm in love. This watch hits all the right notes for me, and makes for a wonderful introduction to the brand. It was bet...  

Superb!!!!

Hello Adam; Thank you for the photos of the JLC including the side by side photo with the UTS Chrono. I have been thinking about the purchase of an UTS for some time and I think you have given good reasons to go ahead with that purchase. Best wishes, Gary

The JLC master compressor divers are very distinctive and handsome timepieces. I agree that the articulated rubber bracelet is a great option on these watches. Enjoy your new catch, and I look forward to seeing more posts from you! Cheers, Daos

I can only imagine...

I read with great interest your real-world test of the MCDC. What I found most interesting was the fact that you were able to use the pushers at depth without compromising the integrity of the case. Otherwise, your photos were riveting, and certainly play... 

thanks for ...

The cordura strap is one of my favs also...maybe the most comfy. B well, Matrix.
