I'm not very used to make this kind of recommendation, but here it's worth it...
If you're a JLC Collector, or simply a JLC lover of Vintage models, here 's a book for you!
Zaf Basha just released this book, and yes, this is a very interesting one to own.
204 pages about all the Vintage JLC ( or quite all, as some are missing ), from year 1925 till the mid 70ies...
A nice documentation about Calibers, Watches, and some precious tips for those who want to buy some rare birds.
After " La Grande Maison ", the Year Book 1, the book on the Gyro I, the Triptyque, and the Book about the 60eme, this one has really to be included , and to be read without any recommendation.
Best to ALL!

This book is a must have for every Vintage JLC Fan, and even for all JLC Fans, as the Past of the " La Grande Maison " is something to be known to understand some of the actual production.
I'm pleased that you're happy with, and wouldn't never recommend it if I wasn't sure...
I just hope that Zaf will release another book about JLC Vikntage watches...
There are so many things to say and write about the Memovoxes, or the Reversos, for example!
Best!
Nicolas
But Zaf is not a full time wrotier and he has a lot of job, too...
But YES, I'm waiting for the Opus II impatiently...
Thanks, Stefan, for the info!

Anybody know where can we buy a copy?
Thanks for your advice -- Amazon seems to only have 1 used. Is there an official outlet where one can buy a new copy?

not purely because your post, was my decision only...
hi Nic, have talked with Zaf, he mentioned the second edition is in the works, but it's probably 3 years away. fyi.

It's worth being patient, indeed!
But Zaf is not a full time wrotier and he has a lot of job, too...
