edgematic1 Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 Jaeger LeCoultre Master Compressor diving stunning watch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ztech Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 Agreed. I've handled one at an AD and it certainly is an awesome watch. Having seen other reps produced, I'm sure they could do it if they chose to. With the usual mistakes of course. LOL Either way, I'd be all over it if they did produce one.

Toadtorrent Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 That is a nice watch. They call the semi-circular window an "operating indicator". What's that? Is that a 30s gauge running seconds?? If so...that should be readily done with the seconds at 6 movement and usual reliability problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vlaletom Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 i love this watch, and JLC in general and yes it's based on the running at 6 JLC chrono movement Actually for serious diver they even have one with deep indicator (fully mechanical) But since i haven't seen any hih end rep of any watch in the master compressor line, i guess we are not ready to see this out. At least they could produce a simple master compressor (no alarm, no chrono , no gmt ...), with 316L and working rotative crown & pusher lock ? Dunno why JLC doesn't interess rep factory, while they put out 25 generation of ultra high end reps of bling bling watch as lets say HBB ... i ended up buying a gen JLC MC chrono ....

trailboss Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 Ooooh yeah, I likey. Hopefully it will get rep'd 'cause now I want one. Note to self: Add to the very long list of wants. Col. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toadtorrent Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 Yeah...they come out with things like really ugly blinged out HBB's, or the leopard Daytona but they can't come out with stuff like this, or the IWC Deep Two (that's the one I really want). I guess they know their market of what sells around the world...and not just for people who participate on forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgematic1 Posted August 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 I've e-mailed some of our dealers to get to know something more. Though, they all say the movement is to difficult to rep, so they won't be able to produce a JLC... too bad... @Toadtorrent: the iwc deep two is also one on my list, awesome watch, would sell great I think... also the iwc aquatimer automatic 200m, should be easy to rep...

Toadtorrent Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 I don't even care if the mechanical depth gauge works or not on a Deep Two rep. I don't see any reason they don't make one other than thinking it's not a big seller. Too bad. I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the look of this watch, 95% of my watches are divers and this would be a highpoint In my small but growing collection. I agree that this exact watch wont be reped because of the movement, but maybe one day. Nothing would suprise me as far as reps go and there steady Improvements over the years. I wont hold my breath on this one Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
