Help me decide: Yay or Nay
Some months ago my good friend from #1wc suggested that my JLC Polaris is the Casio of the JLCs.
I would like to respond by buying a more complicated JLC. Also preferably in Gold. Because Aurelian likes gold. After some research, I came up with this one.
41mm diameter, 14mm thick in gold.
It ain’t pretty. But its got really cool complications. Dual time is useful. The watch got presence for sure.
Should I buy it?
Thanks

@Aurelian please vote on this one when you got a chance. Thanks
You are asking a group of watch friends who like to spend other people's money!? Yes. Please buy it. :-)
If @Aurelian made fun of my watch I wouldn't be able to sleep at night till I'd bought a better one.

Oh I always sleep soundly.
I don’t care if somebody makes fun of my watch.
My problem is, I have been focused on getting simple time only watches. With the exception of some chronographs. But chronographs are pretty common these days.
My most complicated watch is an Apple watch.
The next most complicated watch I have is a GShock.
I think I gotta at least have one out there in my collection.
If the main reason for buying a different, "better" watch is cuz someone said a "mean" thing about my watch, I think I'd be de-influenced.
However, if you were planning on "upgrading" anyway, I see no reason not to.

My lovely Rolex A.D forced me to buy a Two Tone watch that I didn’t want.
So now I gotta flip that two tone watch by trading it away, with a Second-hand store.
That pre-owned store has this cool JLC I kinda wanna get. But I’m indecisive. 🍻
Maybe alcohol will help with my decision. Fingers crossed lol

Just to add on to my story:
My Rolex AD sales-lady is really really really really smoking hot.
I will never not tell you to buy a JLC. If I were forced to critique it I would wish that the main hands were slightly larger and the crowns slightly smaller. I really like the world timer wheel and the AM/PM indicator. This would be a unicorn in any collection.

Aye, those compressor crowns are like: 😂

Indeed.
"Just take his money!!"
I think I would just rock the 'casio of jlc' if I'm honest.
That thing looks like an invicta homage 😂
On a positive note, the polaris is stunning

Good point. LOL
All the elements are there but does it work as a whole?

I don’t know. I gotta go to this Pre-owned store tomorrow.
Maybe I should take some alcohol with me. In case I don’t like the watch.
I'd wouldn't buy the watch; I would find a new friend instead 😎

"Invicta homage"
The circle is complete. Now I am the master.
Not a fan of the Casio of JLCs (or really the JLC of JLCs), but am into the JLC of Casios 🤪😜
Cracking watch and if you like it and have the spare cash then go for it HOWEVER dont be shamed into buying anything. The Polaris is a cracking watch

😂 Wait, what does that Kanji say?

" Jaeger LeCasioltre " of course!

Gshock LeCoultre. A mechanical watch that can survive a drop.
Now that’s going to kill Richard Mille.
Thanks everyone who helped me on my decision. This is one of the closest polls ever.🤣
I went to the preowned store, and they offered a low-ball value for my two tone Rolex Explorer. So I traded it for a steel JLC instead.😀
It’s the most complicated watch I have now. LOL. It has this moon and it moves once in a while. I don’t ever keep track of the moon, nor the date. I just like this one being complicated.😎
Thanks again guys. This completes my 3 watch JLC collection.

Excellent choice! It’s such a great watch. I own the same except with the white dial. The moon moves daily 😎
Looks amazing… great choice!
