Best Sports QP?

Fantastic all around everyday watch. Even at the beach. Rubber strap with deployant are unbelievably comfortable. Blue gradient dial is stunning in the natural light. Enjoying this reference more and more each day.

Gorgeous I didn’t even know this model existed. I’d prob have to vote MB&F evo perpetual for best but this is really nice and obviously at a different price point.

Very nice.

Is this a new model for 2022? I saw heavy marketing for this watch on IG, so I assume this is something they just launched this year.

Does it come with both the bracelet and rubber strap? Easy to swap?

Yes, debuted at Watches and Wonders this year. Comes on a bracelet and rubber strap in the box. Haven’t even worn the bracelet. The strap is just killer.

Had no clue that the MB&F has 80m water resistance. That is pretty great. So, yes, that probably takes the cake but is in at a different price point altogether.

That is fantastic, you've made me google for reviews to find out more!

Is the small window above the centre hands pinion for leap year?

I love the case design. The shorter bevel that flares out to the end of the lugs is really fantastic

I think it looks great. JLC's QP's are awesome.

Don’t think that’s true. NYC boutique had one and was willing to show it (unsure if it’s because I emailed ahead of time).

Yes, that is the boutique. A regular AD just told me a few hours ago that they will not even special order the watch.

I know I can buy it out of New York, but I want to try it on and do not want the hassle of returning it

Stunning piece, congratulations.
When it was announced I remember reading some critical comments regarding the movement on the ‘Dink. Any impressions to share here from your viewpoint?

I think the movement is gorgeous. Yes, maybe a bit small for the case but JLC does a great QP movement. Plus, the size of the case makes the dial a little less crowded. There is a lot going on but it all looks legible and great.
