This one is new for me. Arrived today.
First impresions are very good... sits nice on the wrist not a heavy watch due to titanium. Dial is super leggible and comes with nifty functions specialy like the alarm :D
Quick low quality phone shot from the office...
regards Sash.

THIN is the new BLACK
To busy, to shiny, but obviously a quality piece :)
But since you have to wear it........
Daddel.
Got a new watch, divers watch it is, had to drown the bastard to get it!
to bad it doesn't have a touch of red on it since Rossi now rides for Ducati.
Pardon - I can't hear you over the watch :lol:Originally Posted by abraxas
Seriously Sash - that is a bold watch and I can certainly respect it for what it is - a class manufacturer putting out an interesting movement and interesting watch. To save me browsing what does it do - I've picked up on the alarm, world time, date and home time. Anything else?
I'm asuming the 'open' figures are the world time bit? Must admit that personally I find the trend of 'open' numbers (most notably for dates) a bit fussy, confusing and pointless. I admit that it adds to the 'technical' look, if that's what people are after.
Cool piece, if not for me (I'm a tad staid/conservative).
Thanks for sharing.
I've never seen a picture of one before, it is very nice,
I cant believe they wrote "date" where the "date" is :D
Very bold quality piece.
congratulations
Probably not a watch for everyone, but if you dare wearing something different, here you go.
For me it looks a little like ûberklasse G shock (pardon and pardon) :-)
Best

Yeah, Breitling did that in a few models. It could be worse I suppose, they could put the word 'watch' on the dial, just so there's absolutely no confusion as to what's strapped to your wrist.Originally Posted by blackie
Nice JLC, a bit busy for my tastes, but congrats all the same.
Congratulations!
My MCGeo is my favourite of all the watches i've owned over the years, and there have been loads!
I like it.. would have preferred a 60 minute scale on the internal bezel.. far more useful than the world time complication.
All mechanical alarms are rather cool though.
I had assumed this is about one of the "doctors" watches popular in early 20. century, the rectangular ones with an oversized second display. Seeing the image was thus quite a shock.
"What the... that's no doctors watch... oh look there's a 46 on the dial like Valentino Ro..."
:idea:
Sorry, not my type of thing. I think the legibility is rather questionable about one third of the time :D
Edit: just looked at the picture again, actually it's one quarter.
Interesting piece. The only thing i really dislike is the 46.
Hi all,
thx for the comments. Sure its not anyone's cup of tea, but here is my impression after wearing it the second day...
Legibility of time is not in question at all... dial is big and might be busy but the big hour markers and thick hands take care of that. I also like the date as the numbers a re bigger then usual and thicker so easy to read even without a magnifier.
The nicest function of this piece is the alarm woke me up today at 6 30 had the watch 1 meter away on the night stand loud enough sounds really mechanical and nice like a mini mechanical alarm clock.
This one also has the 24 hour ring so complication vise it has lots and more...
Now styling i agree is not anyone's cup of tea. Personally i like it because it stands out from the other pieces i have atm. Love the carbon fiber dial on it but as someone mentioned they could of kept of the 46... then again cant have it all :wink:
As mentioned this one came with 2 rubber bands yellow and black and a black crock on yellow stitch... I hit the town yesterday as i had a buddy came visit and just before I left the house i put it on the yellow rubber band (my least favorite one so far)... to my surprise watch got a lot of compliments ect...
I like it :albino:
Here it is in the yelllo :mrgreen:
SASH
Those Rossi JLC are nice for sure
I just think the dial is a bit bussy and I'm not crazy with the Rossi link (feel the same way with they NS models)
but that dosen't change the fact that it is quality watches as always with JLC 8)
Why is this a doctors watch?
It certainly fits a lot of features and really stands out.

If this is Valle's, just what is a watch that is tied in to Lorenzo going to look like?
