The Master Control line is one of the best lines of any brand anywhere when you factor in functionality, versatility and value for money. The date only model is close to perfection.

I bought a vintage 1943 JLC Cal 470 when I was 18 in 1990 - I took one look at the gold plated movement inside and just had to buy it regardless of consequences, like going hungry... However, it has gone up 25 times in value since then, so now I wish I had bought all 8 watches that I saw at that time. Investments are very easy to do well retrospectively!

There is another feature small, but worth a mention. In the back view of the watch at 7:28 you can see the pins protruding through the strap where the spring bars are. Those pins are connected to the spring bar and can be slid along to release the bar from the lugs, saving you using a spring bar tool, which usually scratches the lugs.

JLC always produce some interesting watches but with low power reserve(most of the Master Collections has only 38 hours), to me the biggest surprise/feature of this year is that they are able to pump the power reserve of their new release up to 60/70 hour power reserve without sacrificing the thickness and interesting design.

The Master Control Calendar is probably my favourite but the Geographic is stunning too and I genuinely thought the prices would be higher than that.

A trip to the Laurent Ferrier factory or, even better, an interview with the man himself, would be amazing. Keep up the great work.

I’m in love with the new Master Control Calendar. Love the new power reserve & jumping date A modern watch needs absolutely a power reserve of +/- 70 hours. When you have a watch-collection (meaning when you have several watches) : you can change a watch Friday for the weekend & put it Monday again on for the new workweek without setting. Owning already a JLC MC Chronograph with a beautiful grey dial, which I absolutely love… I only really regret that JLC don’t bring these models with more color variants: f.i. black or blue dial... I would immediately pick one up, if other dial colors where available. JLC is a perfect watch designer with fantastic models… but they seem not to realize that customers, if buying multiple models, don’t want to have them in all same grey color-dial. Question: Nowhere I can find info if it is a deployment buckle strap or a tang buckle… ? I absolutely prefer deployment buckles !!

Stunning JLC releases ! The "entry level" Date is more convincing that the similar Portugieser model from IWC, with "JLC 1000 hour control" and £500 lower price. Could very well see myself buying it as a milestone watch. The Geographic is dream stuff and even at 10 grand, it certainly is not cheap, but looks to me sensibly priced considering all you're getting for your money (and it's 4 K below a 321 caliber Speedmaster).

What's the functionality of the absence of minute/ hour markers between the 4 and 6 hour positions, and the 6 and 8 hour positions? Any time from 5:23 to 5:29, and 5:31 to 5:37 ( likewise for the same intervals after 7) would be sheer guesswork. That's a period of 28 minutes of every 12- hour period when you basically wouldn't be able to tell the time, because of a dial designs flaw.
