Jaeger Lecoultre!

Does anyone rep the master compressor line of Jaeger?? I was looking at the master compressor extreme world... and this thing is a phenom! What do you guys think?

I've always been a JLC fan.

I don't see why they cannot rep these... I haven't heard anyone talking about them. I put on the gen extreme world at tourneau shop in LA a couple months ago, and WOW!

Movement is too complicated for it to be repped.

Let me give you an example on why they can't be repped:
JLC MC Navy SEAL/s GMT Chrono: 3-6-9 layout, seconds @ 6, with GMT function, date, and a day/night complication @ 12 just above the hands. Current a7750s only have their seconds counter at 9 in the 3-6-9 layout (check out most Hublots if you don't believe me). That, and the case would be hard to rep...it's not a traditional screw-down for any of the pushers, more of a half twist/spring enabled seal (I believe).

JLC MC NSA: The chinese would have a hard time with that alarm.

The articulated bracelet (rubber coated stainless steel)? Not gonna happen.

Even with the regular line, not just the JLC MC NS models...cases would be hard to replicate, with the spring seals on the pushers. Ditto for the movements.
