Seems there is a new JLC integrated bracelet sports watch coming
JLC is around eight years late to the trend and decided to join with a rather generic looking product. I hope it looks better in real life! Although I have to admit at the same time I kind of wish JLC would give the integrated design to my blue dial Master Ultra Thin blue dial….
I must admit that
I AM NOT a fan of integrated bracelets, I just prefer watches with the
standard lugs.
And if they don't put a screw down crown, will show their laziness more. Same with Frederique constant who insist not to put scrwdown crown for their so-called sporty watch Highlife.
Poor choice for a red carpet event
Something dressier and not on metal would have been my choice.
Could be worse! He could have shown up with that famous dive watch that a certain British agent was wearing with the most formal attire 😂
Looks like an IWC/VC mash up… not terrible, but not amazing either
At least JLC is embracing bracelets (!)
Somehow I feel like a lot of JLC designs should look good, but they come across as very stale
That’s because they are stale.
I don’t understand why JLC don’t just go to their friends at Cartier and ask them for help in designing something that stands out………
Sure they're ~8 YEARS late to modern fashion, but at least JLC tried. So... ATTA BOY JLC, you get a silver star for trying.
JLC best hope the other industrialized brands, with their sense of forward-fashion style.... at W&W 2026. Being a follower like JLC saves a lot of cost in being first and pushing new styles, plus machining is already setup for that style. JLC best hope fashion styles don't change at the 2026 W&W, or 2027, or 2028.
Better late than never ????
Best be 100m WP, JLC at least owes that after being so very late and thus having an abundance of time to design a properly sealed modern watch case. With other industrialized brands being only 30m WP, JLC can at least showcase how their 100m WP achieves modern specs.
Whatever it is there will be a big campaign / launch, but...
Feels totally uninspired, taking what looks like an existing perpetual and dropping it into an integrated case, box ticking exercise, zero emotional draw for me.
I loved their last campaign about the Reverso, I feel the line works well.
Unfortunately, none of the other models were highlighted recently. Was the Duomètre the last one to be nicely presented? They did very little with the True Second. AndI don't think the Polaris was a success (but I don't know their sale figures), they are hardly seen anywhere (even here I feel they should be more visible if they were a success).
Go Mr Lambert, let change the situation!

Master ultra thinnperpetual in a new case?
Imo, reverso with rubber strap looks better
