    New arrival, my first JLC

    This is my third "swiss made". The first was a el primero 1969, second was a 116600, and this is the third;

    JLC deep sea chronograph.
    28800bjp, 65hrs pwr, chronograph indicator (white= ready! white/red= in use, red=stopped).
    100m WR and ISO-certified for diving. You can use the chronograph function under water, but it's not recommended.
    42mm.

    The dial is matte black, gray with a structured sparkly look when in direct light. Pretty cool!

    Very cool, congrats! I've had my eyes on one of these for a while. They look rather special.

    Congratulations, I happen to like it a lot
    At 42 mm, is a perfect size as well

    Though I prefer this overall

    That are two different watches. The lower one is a two register chrono @ 40,5mm with a fixed bezel.

    "That are two different watches. The lower one is a two register chrono @ 40,5mm with a fixed bezel."

    Indeed. The lower one is the one he prefers.



    Great looking watch. I'm also considering getting one despite the less than "deep sea" water rating. I wish they gave the option to get it on a bracelet.

    Just took a couple of pics for you
    Am partial to two register chronos, so I prefer that even though it is smaller

    Lovely! I don't like the 'automatic' script but not enough to stop me wanting one.

    Wonderful watch, but you need to get that swollen forearm to a doctor ...

    Very nice indeed... New to me... Thanks for sharing!

    Love these. So versatile, I think they'd be a good contender for a one watch collection.
