Memo Alarme Summit - isn't ? - or Noodles forever .. ;-)
Blomman, FYI:
- one kidney , no problem - no kidney, very difficult
BUT: as long as you have a good heart for Vla,
And a free spot on your neck ..
Nevertheless, my Watson-spirit inside can relate to this,
Pity is , I do not have enough pieces (yet) to re- arrange those for 'upgrading':
So, nicen to listen, nice to look, nice to dream ..
Thanks, therefore
Best, hs
Totally agree.
It was one of my fav "affordable" watches long time ago. I was about to buy it many time, now I regret not to do it. 
Great idea, blomman.
Vte
You should think about getting it again?!
The still pops up from time to time!
Thank you, Vte!

Absolutely. Yes, yes, yes
Greediness is good.
Mostly when it comes with such a great taste.
Refined dial, case and movement... That sounds familiar to me.

Well, I like all the ideas so far
Blomman's idea for the Memovox is a good one because the alarm is one of JLC's most defining complications.
But I guess I would like to see something along the lines of the Master Ultra Thin 38, but perhaps with a new movement more aligned with the size of the case at 38-40 mm, remaining ultra thin or at least very thin, a simple dial (no date, no seconds hand), with more of the cost allocated to finishing the movment beautifully. I'd like the power reserve to be substantial in the 65-72 hour range, to allow one to leave the watch in teh box over the weekend until work on Monday without having the reset the time.
Food for thought, my friend.

A manual wind master chronograph
witha display caseback for me please.
Or just a simple 3 hand watch (blue steeled hour, minute and second hand) with long power reserve. With the power reserve displayed at the back.
Manual wind Master Chronograph...
The problem is that JLC already has a superb manual Chronograph in the collection: The Duometre.
But why not, if they release a ... Rattrapante???
Your second soultion would be wiser, but not less appealing, in my opinion.
Thanks for your input!

Nicolas.

Duometre being the ultimate JLCchrono...
but it wouldnt fit the 7-12k euro price range. so i would have to settle for next best....but in hindsight, i think i agree with you to go with my second choice.
I totally forgot about the AMOVX2 chrono...so no need for a master chrono, i am equally happy with a AMVOX2 anytime.
That is why I excluded the manual chrono....
It would generate a serious " traffic jam "... Unless we have what still misses in the family of the JLC Chronos: a Rattrapante.
Let's go for the 2d solution.
Best,
Nicolas.
YES! Frankly, I was disappointed that the MUT Moon...
wasn't released as a manual.
That being said, a 40mm thin-bezel, with a manual with date, power reserve and moonphase is what I dream of from JLC. It may or may not have a seconds hand, but how 'bout taking ONE of the springs from the 87X series and making a round 4-day movement that sits about 7.5mm high? That should accomodate the complications.

PS: What's Jerome Lambert hiding for post-SIHH release?
He He, Dean...
What about a Triple Date moonphase, animated by a delicious manual movement?
I fear that on such a watch, the power reserve indicator is ruining a bit the pure symmetry of the dial.
That may indeed be a solution...
As for the SIHH novelties, I will post one at the end of this week, and another one in two weeks.
POST SIHH release? Time, not Jerome, will tell.
Best,
Nicolas.
Well, Nico, I've loved the Master Calendar for years...
especially after I sold my Master Moon. If the Master Calendar's bezel was thinned, and the profile reduced by half, I think we'd have an absolute winner!

Sure, 35 mm will only please to some Vintage Watch Nuts.
As for the Geophysic, I'd say 37 / 39 would be the ideal size, if we want to keep its characteristic appeal.
40 mm, with the important aperture of the dial, will make it look like a IWC Portuguese...

Nicolas.
