The Watch Appreciation Thread - Part two (Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Jaeger LeCoultre,

[symphvaria]

This is new? Looks like the previous platinum, no?

The previous platinum was half roman numerals half batons. This one is full batons.

Yup. I wish they had given us a bright blue baton dial too.

And if there was ever a watch where one could forgive gem setting ...

ALS released one watch that's unobtainable.

VC released one watch that no one gives a sh1t about.

Cartier had some nice releases but it's basically the same thing from prior years.

Patek releases are some real dogs so PBLB.

JLC did more Reversos so whatever. None of them are "wow that's cool".

Omega doesn't even do W&W anymore. Neither does AP but AP only has the RO, ROO, and now Code.

I like Tudor's new releases. Yes more Black Bays but still some good, solid watches. BB54, White GMT, BB31/36/39/41, BB Heritage Burgundy.

This version was already available, it's not new. You can choose between roman numerals and indices.

Edit:
It was presented a year ago at Watches & Wonders 2022.

It is a homage indeed.

I think given the snowflake hands a "Polar" Tudor makes perfect sense.

I haven't posted here in a bit, but I've been enjoying this JLC I got a couple of months ago. The different shades and textures are even more apparent IRL than in the pic.

 

[Kappelan]

The Speedmaster Professional or the First Omega in Space? What would you choose?

 

[edmorel]

The one with less text on the dial.
