acquired it back in 2008. i personally prefer the current line up of reverso as the size is slightly larger.

My brother came to Sydney for a visit.
Of course I had to bring him to my favorite
Authorized Dealer. He had his eyes on a beauty
but went home without it. A few days later
though, he told me to go get it for him. These
JLCs are really poison like no other :P

This is what I got for him



The Navy Seals Alarm with my DUO

Just had to add this Diving Alarm to my other 2 JLCs…couldn't sleep well since scalpel's post on June 13th…..
checked the dial and hands with a loupe….no complaints….hour/minute hands on the hour are accurate
the shot peened ceramic bezel is really cool...nice to the touch and supposed to be scratch resistant...the titanium 5 case is beautifully brush finished..



still looking for a pre-owned Polaris...

Crown seems to be rubber?

One of my favorite chrono, and also the most innovative IMO

definitely on my wishlist...including the AMVOX1

wear it in good health

What do u guys think?

Been offered a full set, mint Dualmatic for SGD 6.3k. Is it reasonable? Kinda like the calibre, looks and function.

Definitely not one of the popular model. I afraid unless you like the master compressor design. You might get bored with it very soon. I would look at a geografique instead.

Beautiful watch. Good price? I believe you have a soft spot for dual time watches, so why not.
