Incoming - Last Watch For a While
So I don't usually do these incoming threads but I figured I would this time as it is my last significant watch purchase for the foreseeable future!
No pictures or info just yet but all I shall say is that it is a significant departure from my usual watches! More to come later tonight |

The winner in the end is the beauty known as the Master Calendar. It has the right mix of simple elegance and complications and at this price level I do not think there are many other pieces that can come close to it. I decided on SS as it is quite discrete, which for me is an important thing. Oh and also I can't resist the dial....it is stunning! Without further ado, I give you my last purchase for at least a year, and if I break this promise then you have to ban me, Ken The Jaeger LeCoultre Master Calendar |

Thanks guys! I've never had a dress watch before and was worried that they wouldn't appeal to me but I absolutely love this one!

Very nice watch. I've been eying one in the Sales forum. But have not moved yet after making few acquisitions this year already...
Enjoy. |

Many thanks guys! It's funny, I bought this watch on Friday and I have looked at the dial at least 200 hundred times but today was actually the first time I used it to tell the time
