Hands On With Jaeger-LeCoultre's Rarest Watches - Introducing The JLC Collectibles Collection

[@wisamal-hakim5531]

Just leagues ahead of the competition. Seriously. Exquisite videos. Relevant. Interesting. Beautifully done. Well done Team Teddy!

[@alz6582]

One I thing I think that really sets you apart from other producers of videos on this platform is how much the watch brands clearly respect and admire the work you do. I think the access you get to the brands production facilities and archives etc is testament to the respect they have for you and your work.

[@themrgumbatron]

Long awaited episode Teddy. Couldn’t think of any two more JLC connoisseurs to talk through these novelties.

[@TeddyBaldassarre]

Thank you! I hope you enjoy the discussion.

[@walterhernandez7283]

JLC is my favorite watchmaker, thank you Teddy for this video. Amazing and timeless pieces.

[@alannewland5933]

Thank you Teddy. JLC are one of the best watch makers in the world a pity they are not appreciated more.

[@j.burgess4459]

That 1930s Reverso is pure class💥

[@2manysigns]

Very cool . Great that some people are able to care for items so well for such long periods of time .

[@curtiswood8010]

Happy to see the Memovox starting to get its due notoriety. Nothing ever prepares you for the alarm function in person though, its very loud and there is NO WAY you can miss it. It truly is "alarming"....pun intended.

[@ignaciopadilla5150]

Great video. Nice to see a second video for this historic brand. JLC the watch for watch makers.

[@southeastcleanairsolutions7564]

Teddy I just visited JLC in Zurich and they have a *stunning* collection including the Master Grande Tradition Gyrotourbillion 3 Meteorite watch in stock. #6 of 8 total pieces 🤯

[@Jtjustintimberlake]

the reverso is beautiful. Would love to be able to afford a piece like that

[@BAF605]

Just looked on the website. Wow !! Understandably expensive. I'm happy with the modern iterations

[@Doggo-frencton]

Thanks again Teddy! Still trying to steer my wife towards a Reverso but she wants a Rolex. JLC is so classy as always.

[@philippestrickler3461]

Thank you so much for this video. It is rare that a specialist take the time to travel and show us the manufacture from inside. I have seen the 3 video about JLC and i have learn a lot. I must see your videos about OMEGA.

[@MarioGonzalez-yq3gw]

Purchased my JLC Master Control Calendar around 6 months ago and it's hard to take off! Amazing in every way. Great inside video Teddy!

[@jaspreetsidhu5708]

Hey just hoping to see how the watch has been 6 months later

[@MarioGonzalez-yq3gw]

@@jaspreetsidhu5708 it's amazing! It hogs a majority of my wrist time.

Absolutely amazing stuff as always Teddy. That Polaris was outstanding!

[@kalekhalili8130]

Teddy I gotta tell you a watch you should look at and review. Tag Heuer Link Chronograph calibre 17. I have no clue why it isn’t talked about more often. But the link bracelet is sooooo nice. Hefty and intricate. With a beautiful blue dial and very nice lume. I have had it for 2 years and worn it almost every day. And it has taken a beating and still going. When I got it it was $3950 new. Now it’s $4950 new. Either way I’m telling you it’s a bargain. I’ve had more expensive watches with cheaper feeling bracelets and that makes the watch. Please please please take a look at it.

[@londonsaint]

Teddy you're the best in the game, love your videos especially speaking directly to the company very interesting

[@fernandocortess]

Incredible video, crazy prices.

[@francistheo7123]

Awesome ! I have a memovox from the 60s. Thanks for sharing.

[@ralphferrara5152]

I enjoyed the video. It was nice to hear the history behind those beautiful watches. I just couldn't get over how loud that alarm was. I couldn't help but break out and laugh. If you can't hear that alarm, you should get your hearing checked. 👍😁 I look forward to more of your work. I always watched your videos, but I just subscribed. Take care and keep up the good work.

[@GailitisPrintmaking]

More videos like this! Loved it. The Chocolate reverso

[@randylaw3368]

FYI the Nautilus is on display in Groton CT. One of the more fascinating high-tech devices on board, besides the power plant, is the ice cream making machine.

[@anthonystevens8683]

That these rare pieces will be serviced etc at JLC and then offered for sale is an interesting one. It's good that they will be available to the public and these watches will not be reproductions. If JLC remade them it might dilute the interest somewhat. The fact they can still service a near 90 year old watch at the factory is incredible but thankfully there are also other brands that can do this as well to a degree. I didn't realise that they used some of the neighbours Valjoux movements either. Many thanks for sharing.

[@jason12311000]

i wish JLC would go back to some of these smaller sized watches. 37mm memovox would be awesome. The smaller reverso is awesome as well.

[@kristofferglennpfalmer4751]

Incredible! Thanks Teddy

[@boiret]

Beautiful stuff!

[@dminsanebros]

I love these factory visit videos

[@dwing2146]

Matching turtle necks😂 love your videos Soon enough I’ll be able to order a great watch from your website!

[@Rhal63]

Very cool. Thanks

[@actnaturally388]

There was an article stated that the Reverso did not feature small second hand until 1934, however Matthew said the Reverso in this video was probably around 1932 or 1933, Teddy can help clarify? Thanks

[@LaurentiusTriarius]

I don't know how much is that book but it's something I definitely want.

[@pectenmaximus231]

The Geophysic is an aesthetic triumph. All those pieces are gorgeous, really, but to me the Geophysic is singular.

[@jameshoward9700]

Absolutely fantastic - what a great video and tremendous selection of watches from the archive. Unfortunately, I can't help but feel they're mostly better than their modern iterations. While they're one of my favourite brands, a lot of their modern watches are too large for their signature simple, elegant design. The Geophysic is a case in point.

[@vianouche1]

6 months later, I agree with your comment

[@bassebajs]

Did you get to see the Reverso Hybris Mechanica 185? It looks crazy, like a personal astronomer on your wrist

[@domsdomsdomsdoms]

[@bluewato]

Great content such as always. Please correct me if I am wrong. Is that Polaris a Genta design?

No.

I have a JLC Reverso Art Deco (white gold.) Definitely one of my favorite JLC watches ever. The decorated movement is amazing. Maybe not one of the rarest or most "collectible," but not very common and not a watch that will ever leave my collection.

[@chexcollects]

How much are those?

@Chex NFX Haven't been sold for around 20 years. No idea what they are worth today.

its too bad they couldnt do the powermatic, i have an old powermatic from the 50's and i was curious what they would look like basically new

[@Tomarco70]

So many examples of beautiful hands, and nowadays horrible options regarding that aspect, would say the same about dials, I would like to have a JLC on my collection for their heritage, but there's always something wrong about the aesthetics.

[@markreynolds9135]

Two turtlenecks in one room. That is approaching the maximum allowed by law.

[@stephen9609]

They're a business - not a charity. They need to make money - they're not doing this out of the goodness of their hearts

[@rage8kage]

@@stephen9609 they make more Money selling new watches than refurbishing old ones. At such limited numbers at that. Im not saying they're doing it for charity. I said it was cool of them to do so. There's no body better to service and refurbish a jlc than jlc themselves.

[@Marshell99]

38k for a average Reverso just in brown? Isnt that very expansive for a steel reverso with a single Face

[@kristensorensen2219]

Everyone can afford the book!! The reverso was nice but $37k🤷🤣🌰s!

[@res00xua]

Could your company be a ready resource for the spouse of a deceased collector. To liquidate the collection for the estate. Few if any in the industry would have a collector like myself confident of honesty and fairness.

[@santiagodelgado-siu3083]

LETS DEBATE: Cartier Tank vs. JLC Reverso Which one is better?

[@Bmx2live2008]

The Reverso has a richer history, not taking away from Cartier but a lot of their watches historic importance are more closely tied to the people who wore them than the brand itself. The Reverso is also technically the first sports watch ever. Cartier make great watches. JLC pushed horology forward and in some ways dragged it into the modern age for men to wear watches.

[@chexcollects]

@@Bmx2live2008 Cartier had the first watch that was for men, Santos…

[@Bmx2live2008]

@@chexcollects Well trench watches for men where first but yeah kind of. It was the Reverso commissioned by demand from the armed forces polo teams that popularised them for the upper classes as more than a trench tool which in no small part led to it becoming an aspirational item and not just a tool.

[@A.T.148-Scot-HK]

​@@Bmx2live2008 yeah... Not a fan of the history of the Reverso. Made for colonialists in India to play their aristocratic sport of polo. Pah.

Reverso is a non hyped iconic watch.

[@amhroray2934]

[@aaronmonheim6428]

I think it is in Teddy’s best interest to steer clear of Kevin right now - unless Teddy gets Coffeezilla to go shopping with them and every time Kevin doesn’t want to answer a Coffeezilla question, he has to donate one of his timepieces.

[@kpkost]

I think he’s talking about a completely different topic, with a lot more effort and content behind it. No sense in speculation about other videos

[@RinMagoo22]

Nah steer clear…dude is a joke

[@TheJohnGalt1945]

O’Leary’s an ass. Plus the whole FTX thing has made him an even more questionable character to associate with.
