Personally, I am looking forward to the 175th Anniversary of Jaeger-LeCoultre.  Rumours are that they will be several watches (approx 5 different pieces) which will leave us dreaming on our knees.... Presently, I have no ideas as to what they can be, but I learnt to safely rely and trust JLC rumours.

Otherwise I would want to see the new to be Urwerk 202, and I look forward to any new Rolex releases.  A part from that, who knows what will be under the Basel and Geneva Hats during both exhibitions.

In the mean time, Time goes on... ;-)

It is 10 amazing pieces to be unvield this year by JLC ;-) and for the 202 well my lips are sealed yet it should be a winner especially if you like, but didn't dish out the 100K for the 201 "Hammerhead".

As what is instored from me besides the novelties expected this year I would say something old and something new.

From old I am thinking more Vintage Rolex anything that I can get my hands on that is in good shape, the Real McKoy, nicely complete and of course priced accordingly (meaning this side of the Moon LOL). Also I am always on a look out for some rare yet iconic vintage pieces from other companies as well.

From new I am split in 2 categories Simple and Complicated.

Simple I am thinking back to Rolex and GMT II Master, new Milgauss, Lange RL, Decima MAS Strumento and the JLC's reedition of Polaris.

Complicated pretty much stay the same wish list from last year with JLC Duometre leading the poll by head and sholders.

Now let's hope this year will be as fruitfull if not more then last year.

But from JLC, the rumours is 4-5 that will leave us all on our knees >

so I guess we have two sort of rumours and both are valid.... let's resume:

A. 4-5 new models that will leave us on our knees
B. and 10 unique pieces
C. then a Paris Boutique Special and historical

I guess I have to prepare an ad for one of my kidneys.

Time on wrist are what we always look and go for, but time has for me to have more time for that Special Atmos to be, and may I advice you guy to keep your eyes open for that Atmos 175th Anniversary, that one will keep you on your toes!

For sure it will be a succesful piece for JLC.  I understand you on that one even if I don't think I will go for one... Even if Chrono ain't for me in general, I have enough Chrono for my old days.

What I am worried and looking forward too is about something MMR + 15 Days PR and an additional complication...  Let's wait and see but my heart bits are already accelerating...

Look at you the Duometre is not even out on my wrist yet and you are already >>>

thinking of the evolution of Duometre  ... ay ay aye since your MMR your apetite for Haute Horlogy has become insaciable and for me hard to keep up with, but I will start catching up with my planned Rose gold Duometre a Chronographe.

 

Milan, my very first watch was a Kelton >

Who knows what would be my last!

Yes, I enjoy and cherish all my pieces and of course I love my last one, however, I am not thinking ahead of anything, I just keep on dreaming and hoping.  I know I already reached a level of no return since that MMR, but it ain't bluring my roots in any ways.
