Beautiful timepiece, very under rated and have the most in house movements in the world, and a lot of their movements are in very high end watches, thanks 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️👍

JLC is killing it - the Duometre Heliotourbillon has to be my favourite release of the year.

Please don't do those open-mouthed "I'm so shocked...please click" thumbnails, lol. Your viewers aren't kids.

Pfoeee, this watch just straight up flew to the top of my watchlist! Waiting for it to drop to €20k used in a few years and def getting one!

[BumblebumBear]

I recently try bought a 2006 JLC Geographic…for a very good price….after many years of owning Rolex’s of various models, the Geographic is just on another level of horology. I’d defo recommend them to anyone wanting an extremely good quality timepiece.

That JLC is stunning. Much underrated brand. Thankfully their marketing now changed from humble and behind the scenes to loud and proud. As they should be. They deserve our attention!

Seen the release of this piece, absolutely fantastic piece. Beats any Calatrava by a mile, only to be outdone by a VC Overseas Perpetual Calendar, but those are 130k. But this JLC is simply perfect, the balance of all the elements on the dial is in a league of its own.

[THX-C]

JLC is the only major watchmaker that exceeds the hype and it’s not just because they’re constantly underrated but because they remain innovative while honoring their past. They even still make the Atmos clock as well as the Reverso, the Memovox, and the Master Ultra Thin watches.

[JamesCarian]

I think you nailed it. Truly the only reason to go up to a Patek over JLC is if you want all the genuine hand finishing. But in every other category (including accuracy) the JLC will give Patek a run for its money. I'm more of a white metal guy but the dark blue color scheme on rose gold looks fantastic.

[edotedy]

The Patek movement doesn't even have inner anglage at that price, what a shame

[Milofchg]

The Doctor Strange JLC!!!! Yes a huge bargain over Patek, AND a more robust tougher movement than Patek. BUT, for me I wish the size was slightly smaller 37/38mm. The only eye soar is the year complication. However if I had the cash and knew that a 3940 or the other Perpetual calendar Patek reference 5970 (I think) was in reach. I would go with the Patek.

JLC watches are really worth the money… 😊

[hourkid]

Great watch. Great brand nice one guys

[amosgoh]

That's so much watch for the money. I love JLC perpetual calendars.

[golfinguru]

Complaints (nitpicking): (i) The movement is small for the case; (ii) 39mm for a dress watch this thin is just about the max size to me; (iii) The retail price is insane considering it was nearly 10k less only a year or two ago. That said, as a used model in a couple years it’s a buy.

[felixj]

Buying patek is like buying ferrari, you dont need it, you WANT it. Is it worth extra $$$? YES for some of us.

[Lt.WalterTull]

In terms of comparison for me, JLC is 50m WR and the Patek is 30m WR. For me this is important because when I go to beach or pool, I don't want to leave my expensive watch with my wallet and clothes unguarded on the sand/pool-side, also its a bit lazy from PP, f JLC can go the extra mile surely Patek can also

[travisogden]

Perpetuals should be living on winders

[Superdada]

JLC used to the bargain to the holy trinity but sadly the past couple years they’ve increased prices far too much.

Just a couple weeks ago they lowered the price of the Polaris.

Still an amazing brand but they’re becoming less of a deal.

Jlc gold metal should really do hand finishing . Looking at these straight non polished side is eye hurting.
