Johan (This is my first post here !!)

Wow..
Great watch ..
Tell us more about it!

[Johan-Mani]

Some more info about the WWII JLC pocketwatch:

The watches were originaly during WWII from the Britisch Forces.
After the war, the Belgian Army had to be built up again; therefore a LOT of material has been purchased second hand from the UK.
They had a mass of surplus and barely used material.
Around 1995-2000, the Belgian Army reduced masively and many stuff was for sale, ...
Then I was lucky to buy some!
All in non working order, but a watchmaker in Gent (Belgium) could easily fix one.

Caliber: The 15 jewelled Calibre 467 movements were entirely produced “in house” by Jaeger Le Coultre with no outsourced components whatsoever and have since become acknowledged as one of the most accurate and reliable military watch movements ever made.

The 2 other JLC's that I bought had more work and needed money to repair: I offered them to Mr. Philippe Dufour (!) to help one of his pupils to learn on it: there is a lack of REAL watchmakers and via him I could help a bit to keep this profession alive.
I visited him in Le Solliat (CH) in his famous workshop, he is the most experienced and most famous "one man manufacturer" in the world.

I hope to have given some interesting information for this forum!

Γι αυτό έχουμε απόψεις; https://www.jaeger-lecoultre.com/us/en/watches/geophysic/geophysic-universal-time/8102520.html Το είδα live σήμερα στον kessaris και ειλικρινά έδειχνε ποιο ακριβώ..πολύ εντυπωσιακό   
Κομμάτι.

Ειναι κάτι διαφορετικό από τα συνηθισμένα..
Το θέμα ειναι αν εσύ θα φόραγες world timer!
Σαν τεχνογνωσία και ιστορία η εταιρεία είναι αλλού!

[Watch me]

Θελω να μου πει καποιος αν γνωριζει γιατι η κίνηση του δείκτη δευτερολέπτων είναι σαν του Χαλαζία; Και οχι όπως των αυτόματων ή μηχανικών ρολογιών...(με ξενέρωσε απίστευτα)

[oikonikos]

Ισχύει.
Καλημέρα

Ισα ισα που είναι ένα από τα ιδιαίτερα χαρακτηριστικά του ρολογιού. Είναι True Second (η ονομασία της JLC για το dead beat/second complication), που σημαίνει ότι χτυπάει μια φορά το δευτερόλεπτο ο δείκτης παρόλο που εσωτερικά δουλεύει στα 28.800. Γενικά θεωρείται δύσκολος και πολυπλοκος μηχανισμός.

[Watch me]

Κατανοώ την πολυπλοκΌτητα αλλά δεν μπυ αρέσει αισθητικά και μόνο..

[blah]

 

[oikonikos]

Πολύ ωραία ρολόγια, φοβερή εταιρεία, δε βρίσκω ένα λόγο γιατί να μην την προτιμήσει κάποιος που έχει την δυνατότητα..

[Dimi]

Τέλειο!

Τέλειο!

Johan, haven't read your post since tonight.
Wow! For your watch and for your offer to Mr Dufour.
I'm feeling "happy" knowing that information!
Good job Johan! Seriously!
