I trust you are doing a lot of lobbying for us Nicolas ...

but be sure to give us a hint if there is anything we can do to win this fight.
I'm not sure if I am relieved or not that the re-issue will not present itself THIS year ... but at least your words give hope!
Sign me up for a SS Geophysic with cross hair dial, I'm hungry with money to burn ... LOL!

First Jaeger-Lecoultre of the year.

A Geophysic... Because I would love that JLC reads us and decides to re issue it. Because it is such a discrete but beautiful watch. Because I need a coffee, after all these moments of work, drinks and food. What about your JLC, today? Best, Nicolas...
Well... I know a few things I can't share for the moment.

My lips have to remain sealed as a Patek watch, till the 21th of January... BUT I can already tell you that 2013 won't see a re issue of the Geophysic. Well, if it would have been the cxase, I wouldn't have told you, either... :) Are you lost? I am... :) ...

Not a JLC on the wrist...

But I take the opportunity to wish you a very happy new year to you and to your family! I only have to wait a few weeks to discover the new collection so we will see if 2013 is the year of my first JLC! Fx
Old JLC for a new year
By: stromer : January 1st, 2013-04:03
I also picked an old JLC for this morning. Although "an" is quite an exaggeration because this is the only vintage JLC one I own ;-) But I cherish it a lot. The Geophysic is superb with a Geomatic not far behind. Such fine watches! Have a great new year e...
No JLC for me yet ...
By: Mark in Paris : January 1st, 2013-10:42
that's why I enjoy so much looking at the treasures you share with us here Nicolas. About this "re-issueing" matter, even if I understand your excitement in thinking about such a novelty in the future, are you sure it is a good thing that many beauties fr...
Vast question, Mark...
By: amanico : January 1st, 2013-11:09
I would first say that when you know JLC quite well, you cannot miss the fact that the collections are an eternal roundtrip between past and present. Even a watch like the Duometre is strongly linked to the Past. It is a bad thing when it is the only visi...

You just mentioned the kind of thoughts I also had in mind when I wrote my post. I was thinking about the Polaris and the Deepsea, and the fact that it would be a shame if they had been lost in the depth of JLC's history and we couldn't admire them anymor...
On a somewhat lesser scale .. But happily so.. :)
By: hs111 : January 1st, 2013-10:53
.. I had chosen this "Petit Monsieur", Jaeger Vintage Chrono for today. Why ? - I always enjoy this one, somewhat low- key but balanced and pleasant, in a classy and reliable modesty. - secondly as it brings back happy moments, moments with a friend, mome...
Weell, right you are.. My knowledgeable friend ;)

Touché !! - There is this famous piece, By J. Milton, if I remember correctly: " Paradise Lost .. - Paradise Regained", - and that puts it pretty close, doesn't it ? And luckily, it was not the only catch of these unbelievable days, but it would have rais...
Good choice, Nilo. The Amvox I is very popular,
By: amanico : January 1st, 2013-12:55
And it is easily understandable, as it is a modern interpretation of the Polaris. Well, one of the modern interpretations of the Polaris. Best, Nicolas
Happy New Year Nico!

and to all JLC PuristS, Happy New Year! May 2013 bring a shiny JLC to your wrists! -MW
What a splendid way of starting the year...
By: ztirual : January 2nd, 2013-12:19
I'lll have to find one of those. I have had near misses in the past. In 2013 maybe. For me The most desirable vintage watch out there. Full stop. Especially in this version that you have there, Nicolas. Best Z'
Starting the tear or the year, Ztirual? ;)
By: amanico : January 2nd, 2013-12:22
Anyway, I do get you. Not the most spectacular Vintage JLC, but one of the most charming. Yes, With this small touch of " je ne sais quoi ", which makes a huge difference. All the best of luck in your hunt, my dear friend, and also my best wishes, for thi...
Lightning has struck again
By: ztirual : January 2nd, 2013-12:37
Dear Nico, You respond faster than than I can possibly edit. Where is this edit button again,.... Up to menu, down to own mesages... What the heck... ! Yes a 'je ne sais quoi' but also a peach of a movement, those arabic numerals, the time capsule and sca...

No, it doesn't surprise me.
By: amanico : January 3rd, 2013-13:33
But would you be surprised if I told you that i plan to wear the same watch tomorrow? ;) Best, Blomman. Nicolas
A bit late
By: rnaden : January 7th, 2013-17:50
...probably not the best thing to do for the new year - but I'm starting my second week of the year with my only JLC, and one which I love for a few years now and is a keeper for me, which also sees a lot of wrist time, I must add. Perhaps 2013 will see t...
