Okay, so I’ve been eyeing this Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar watch for a while now. You know, the one that just screams “I’ve made it” without actually having to say it? Yeah, that one. I finally decided to pull the trigger and get it, and let me tell you, it was a whole process.
First off, I started doing some serious research online. I mean, we’re not talking about buying a new pair of sneakers here. This is a serious investment. From what I read, some of these Jaeger-LeCoultre watches hold their value pretty well, and some limited editions even go up in price. I also learned that it has a 40mm case and is 10.95mm thick. I guess that’s not bad.
Then, I had to decide which model to get. There’s the Master Ultra Thin Moon, the Master Calendar, the date model, and god knows what else. It is kinda headache, right? After a lot of back and forth, I decided on the Perpetual Calendar. It just had that extra something, you know? It’s a classic, and it’s got a moon phase, which I find super cool. And this watch measures 39mm in diameter, 9.4mm in thickness. How about that?
Here are some details:
- 40mm case, 10.95mm thick (other models are 39mm in diameter, 9.4mm thick or 7.8mm thick)
- Polished finish on top, brushed finish on the sides
- Considered a good investment by some
- Known for being creative and inventive watchmakers
Finding a Reputable Seller
Next came the fun part – actually buying the thing. I looked at a bunch of different websites, and let me tell you, there are a lot of places selling these watches. Some seemed a little sketchy, so I decided to stick with a well-known site, which I found after some digging. It’s called something like “Joma-something” or whatever, I’m not really sure, I’m just glad I found one.
After I made my purchase, I started to see people on forums talking about their watches and I saw a model number. I also read some people’s debate about the Master Control and the Master Ultra Thin. But in the end, I am pretty happy with my choice.
So, was it worth it? Absolutely. This watch is a beauty. It’s slim, it’s elegant, and it’s got all the bells and whistles you could ever want. Plus, it’s a Jaeger-LeCoultre, so you know it’s quality. They call them one of the most creative watchmakers. I guess it’s true. If you’re thinking about getting one, I say go for it. Just do your research and make sure you’re buying from a reputable source. You won’t regret it.
