The news 2003
spotted by AlexG, pictured by AlbertoS

Here´s what AlexG noted and AlbertoS pictured in the 2003 shows:

We had a wonderful welcome from Mrs. Dupassage. The craftsmen having worked on them presented the watches: simple, complicated jewellery or enameled... Mr. Philippe Vandel, JLC's master watchmaker, explaining the new movement designs:


Master Compressor Geographique


Reverso Septantieme with 8 day power reserve



The Master Antoine LeCoultre (limited to 200 pieces in platinum but exists in gold in regular production) with big date and day/night indicator was what surprised me most. The Master series really didn't have much personality but JLC have nonetheless done a great job with the case and dial design. The movement is absolutely gorgeous, beautifully finished with "sun stripe" finish on the plates.






The new tourbillon movement in the XGT case, one of the nicest tourbillon cages I've seen :

A new enamel set inspired by the works of Tamara Lempicka, sublime:
