Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Perpetual

Watches are often considered the only acceptable kind of jewelry for men. So what kind do you wear? Sporty? Classic? Big and rugged? Sleek and stylish? In any case, make sure it's got a mechanical movement inside and the word "battery" is not mentioned anywhere in the watch's manual.

To guide your horological activities, we're producing a Watch of the Week feature, put together by Frank from the Monochrome.nl watch blog.

Today we'll have a look at one of my first loves. When I first discovered watches, and, in particular, mechanical watches, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Perpetual made a lasting impression. And I had no clue about its price or all its funky little sundials and hands. It was purely that massive wow factor that did the job.
