My new Jaeger LeCoultre Compressor Diving Navy Seals Limited Edition!

Wow, this watch does have awesome presence!!!

I wanted to get something else than Rolex this time, and this is a really nice watch! OOooozes quality, craftsmanship. Dare I say, perhaps more than Rolex?

Well,

Pics are surely more interesting than me blabbing...

Very nice, that and the BP FF are the only two divers I'd take over a sub in that segment, and there's no dancing around it, this is a better watch than a Submariner ceramic.

I love the twist to lock compressor system too, most finger friendly screw-down replacement ever.

Nice Watch, Congrats!

dddrees · 21 September 2011, 04:36 AM

Very nice Andreas, Congrats.

Beek · 21 September 2011, 04:39 AM

You got this one too.

There's no stopping you

Nice shot of the BL5!

esm · 21 September 2011, 04:51 AM

Huge congrats Andreas, that's one awesome beast. I love it.

How do you feel wearing something different?

The JLC is def a different ball game, that's for sure.

TSW · 21 September 2011, 04:56 AM

Like it like it a lot my friend

bayerische · 21 September 2011, 07:58 AM

Thank you friends!

Yes, JLC is really a wonderful watch!

I like it a lot!

HL65 · 21 September 2011, 08:07 AM

Yes, it's definitely a cool looking watch.

Tony-GB · 21 September 2011, 06:02 PM

That is so cool.

travisb · 21 September 2011, 08:46 PM

That is one solid quality timepiece! Congrats.

FeelingTheBlues · 25 September 2011, 02:30 PM

Well perhaps I'm not a JLC expert but I never thought they'd release a model like this! Needless to say it's quite different from their fancy dress watches!

Congratulations! It's beautiful!

Mosco · 25 September 2011, 02:53 PM

Wow.... Stunner

bayerische · 25 September 2011, 11:34 PM

Thank you guys!

I really enjoy the size too! 42mm is perfect for this watch, strange, as I don't think the Submariner would be "perfect" at 42mm, the Sub is definitely perfect at 40mm.

Enjoying Lisbon at the moment. Have both my Nexpy2 and this one with me... BUT the JLC has gotten way more wrist time.

Good stuff Andreas. Can't remember if the JLC MC Diver is 42mm watch.....?!?
Is the Navy Seal the same size as the Diving Chrono?

bayerische · 26 September 2011, 05:00 AM

Eric, I think the others are 44mm, aren't they?

dysondiver · 26 September 2011, 05:07 AM

chunky , but neat.

To be honest with you Andreas... I can't remember....

It was such a blur experience for me... Maybe I should take the MC DC out for a walk sometime during the week

Can't remember the diameter, but I know the lug is 22mm

Nice watch

You are in good company. Hoooooo-aaaaaa
