... i have tried this watch few times, it has a very comfortable design with thin movement inside. the calendar display is readable which is another good point of this watch.

JLC MUT perpetual in steel
Hello all watch lovers
This message has been edited by YvesB on 2014-07-13 04:45:23
As some of you may have read in another thread I have just received my second new JLC master ultra thin perpetual in steel. My first one was stolen a few months back... I decided to start a new thread to forget the past and start fresh with my short review.
The watch arrived in the classic JLC packaging and has been running non stop now for a week. Adjustment was a breeze, since all elements of the perpetual calendar are adjusted through a single pusher at the 8 o'clock position. There is a danger zone during the night, while no date adjustment can be made without disadjusting the mechanism. The watch feels quite thin and it sits perfectly on my medium wrist.
As far as precision goes, I have tested it against network time with a simple application for the Iphone called Time, and I am glad to report a +/- 0 sec over 48 hours 
))) I am fully aware that this is probably fortuitous but regardless, it feels nice to report ))
))) I am fully aware that this is probably fortuitous but regardless, it feels nice to report ))All needles and the moon dial are very precisely adjusted, and I like this exactitude in the displays.
I have posted a few pictures below, but I do not have a good photography setup, and these are iphone pictures, so apologies if the detail is not up to par with most fellow watchlovers...
So for the moment I am truly very happy and satisfied with the watch, and hopefully things will continue to go in this way for a long long time....
I will receive my watch winder (swisscubik) this week so my watch stay adjusted when i wear my other watches....I will write a small review of this winder in the next few weeks also
cheers,
YvesB

Here's to new beginnings!
Gorgeous watch! Now, you can begin to write new chapters together.
JLC calendar watches are a treat. The company has mastered the type thanks to long practice, and the Kurt Klaus module in the JLC perpetuals has historic relevance in its own right.
Wear it in great health and good times.
Best,
Tim

iPhone app question.
Very pleased to hear that you have this watch. It's a wonderful time piece.
I was interested to hear that you use an iPhone app to measure the accuracy of your watches. Did you mean this one?

I have not heard any long term reviews of it and am reluctant to buy it after the very negative reviews of Kello which comes from the same company.
I hope you and your watch have many happy years together.

Time apps
Hi Steve68
Actually im using an app called emerald time that u can find on the app store.
Ot syncs with multiple time servers. I like it.
I also use this app called official us time which gets time data from us atomic clocks
Let me know if u like it or if u find any better app.
Y
Thanks for the information
Thanks Yves, that's very helpful. I will give it a try and let you know.
Cal 868 info available?
Any technical info regarding the 868 caliber in this watch? history, reliability, finishings and level of complexity of this watch would be welcome... Hiw does it compare to other perpetual calendars from JLC or others? Im very curious ...
Thanks !
YvesB
This calibre is an evolution of the Cal 889 / 440...
A movement which was born in the Mannesmann years. JLC brought the movement, IWC the perpetual calendar module.
Best,
Nicolas
I don't understand what you mean by track record.
Sorry, my friend, English is not my native tongue...
