JLC Ultra Thin Perpetual
 
I have a Patek Philippe store near the place I work and I went there recently to look at some of their watches, which are absolutely marvelous time pieces.

I was discussing with the employee showing me the pieces and he told me that JLC is really moving up in term of technology and quality. Everybody is quite astonished by the new perpetual calendar and its retail price of 16k€ for the steel version (26k€ for the rose gold one). If Patek made this watch, they wouldn't sell it under 60k€ !

I believe this will be my next purchase (i hope bonus time will not deceive me...)

They're really upping up their game lately.

I hope to see it soon in the store. It is still a rarity. I had to wait over a year between the time the reverso tribute to 1931 was announced and when I got mine (i ordered it as soon as it came out).

It's a small collection but I'm quite proud of. However, I've put it in a safe in a bank while I was away and I need to find time to get it back.

I really considered this watch...... but bought a Journe instead. The JLC is truly a beautiful watch and would buy it over a Patek! Note the Stainless Steel version is only available in a JLC boutique........
