Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Grande Tradition Gyrotourbillon 3 Jubilee Watch
At SIHH 2013, the most prestigious of the actually many prestigious new Jaeger-LeCoultre watches was a new version of the famous Gyrotourbillon. I don't think it is exactly what a lot of Gyrotourbillon fans were expecting given its return to a very classical demeanor and style, but it is a truly new Gyrotourbillon with some interesting features. As part of the master collection, this new piece is the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Grande Tradition Gyrotourbillon 3 Jubilee watch.The term "Jubilee" (anniversary celebration) is conspicuously in the watch's name even though Jaeger-LeCoultre doesn't mention any specific anniversary around the piece's release. If there was to be an anniversary it would be of the 180th anniversary of the beginning of what is today Jaeger-LeCoultre back in 1833. That is as much as I can surmise. The Master Grande Tradition Gyrotourbillon 3 Jubilee will be a limited edition of course, as we slowly see production and possible variations over the years. What Jaeger-LeCo

Premier 777 original dial?
Hi all. I only have an appropriate sized file of the dial. I bought this watch for 300, and it needs a staff and an overhaul, but still a great deal. My question is, does this dial look okay or is it refinished? I'm suspicious of the minute track running through the subdials. Most I've seen have subdials without any other dial clutter. Thanks in advance!

Help please! 59801ar
Gentlemen, I'm considering consolidating my modest collection down and the above model checks many boxes. The rose Gold, steel, Blue dial, chrono function, bracelet and movement have my attention! I've had a few PP over the years. My last PP was a 5960p which I sold several years ago and have been a Rolex guy since.Any feedback is welcome! With the Nautilus chrono, I'm curious how this TT watch will age cosmetically? I'd imagine the bezel would make my 116520 bezel seem bulletproof...Is the movement considered reliable? The PP website recommends 3-5 yr service intervals. I never seem to keep a watch long enough to need a service. I would hope this one will be a keeper. However with that said, does this model retain its value reasonably well? Buying from an AD versus Trusted seller and any potential warranty issues?Anything I need to know or anything you care to share? Thank you in advance!

Called a local AD I haven't seen in a while
Late last week I called a local AD I haven't spoken to in a while. Interestingly I was told they had a watch in customs I might like. Instantly I thought oh ya, hear we go. Well look what I was able to land and yet at a price I was pleased with. Nice proportions, love blue dials.
