you can't go wrong with this one (also love the black)
I got a watch winder from the JLC boutique so I just use that (in some cases you might get it as a gift!). In alternative going ahead is very easy just you can't easily go back if you go ahead too many days 
so I suggest a winder. I have too many watches but this..is something special.
Doctor Strange Jaeger LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar - 4 years!
Four years since I bought the Jaeger LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar - also known as Doctor Strange for its appearance in the marvel movie. To celebrate here are some pictures of today itself of this amazing watch: I have to admit that I al...
I'm considering buying the black dial since years; I have one question for you
You have a couple of watches, how do you keep this Perpetual calendar on date? Watch winder? or it's really easy to set the date so you don't care to set again and again? Thank you

A family member
No, i have no Portugeser perpetual calendar. This watch remembers me about the IWC. Sure, the watches are not similar at many points. Is this some kind of family bands? Richemont, or any other reasons the looks are in the same design language? Not rare in...
umh may be ! but all the IWC I have
have certainly a larger and thicker DNA I don't think the movement are shared wither but then again there might be some similarities. A lot of perpetual calendar do look similar (e.g. Montblanc) perhaps the moon phase?
I think the complication must be related to IWC
Dead giveaway is seeing the identical locations of moon, date, month and day of week; the clincher is 4 digit year indication in the same place. That’s not a coincidence. It could easily be licensed, adapted and thinned. Much easier than reinvented. Cazal...
well spotted!!
for me the bigger give away is the full year on the Botton left. I think that IWC used some JLC movements in the past. In this particular watch I think it is a perpetual calendar module over an automatic movement but I will leave it to the experts to say ...
It’s an IWC movement
This is an IWC kurt klaus movement that JLC used. They updated it recently with their blue enamel series so expect it to go into regular production one day and replace your model , notably it moved the offputting off centre year window inside. ...
I agree
and I agree. This is a different implementation of the perpetual calendar. The positions are rotated around 180 degrees and the year shuffled over into the center in two bits. Cazalea
how ?
The IWC movement for the perpetual is based on an ETA and bigger watchbase.com the perpetual calendar module is a similar technology but is certainly not the same movement watchbase.com
I wasn't speaking of the "movement" when I first made my comment, I said "the complication"
whatever motivates the dates and moon is almost irrelevant, as long as it has enough oomph! In this case we don't know what's beneath but as Nico says, yes, it's a Kurt Klaus perpetual complication (I am not saying a separate module) that has been integra...
sorry for the misunderstanding..I was replying to lanteanflux
that wrote " It’s an IWC movement "it is certainly not a movement but possibly the same module. I am not an expert but after buying the watch I learned that it was a module on the top of the JLC caliber. Not that it matters that much but there are some di...
Myistery solved!
is a JLC base caliber with the IWC module www.watchprosite.com and other sources online confirm this. Thanks for pointing this out
probably! you are the expert :) when I bought the watch I just thought it was a JLC movement
which technically is but then I learned was a module on the top of the JLC movement. It probably makes sense..ultra thin in any case
actually this IWC has a different caliber based on an ETA
watchbase.com and watchbase.com
Very nice and one of the best cases I thing
The silver dial version is very hard to find with the new all gold rotor
thank you, mine is with the old rotor
but also in 2016 when I got it was not so widely available in the boutique. Glad I got one!
