Dress watch with date - Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Perpetual

When you want to display a lot of information on the dial of a watch in an orderly fashion, giving the date, its own sub-dial is often the way to go. Especially with perpetual calendars, this is a favorite approach, such as with this Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Perpetual. The high contrast of the numerals with the black dial still makes the date easy to read. Unique about this watch is not only that Jaeger-LeCoultre spells out the year in full, but also that they offer it in a steel case. More replica Jaeger-LeCoultre Master.

Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Perpetual

Jaeger-LeCoultre ultra-thin modular perpetual calendar, in this case called the caliber 868. This is a self-winding perpetual with 336 parts and 46 jewels, that remains just 4.72mm thick. Impressive, certainly. So impressive in fact that this perpetual calendar fully cased is just 9.2mm thick, while the less complicated watches I mentioned above come in thicker! The MUT Moon is 9.9mm thick and the tourbillon is 11.3mm thick. And, for those who believe in traditional watchmaking, the ultra-thin perpetual calendar is one of the holiest of calibers. So this watch, in a traditional 39mm case, strikes a lot of chords with purists.
