  • JLC Master Control vs Master Compressor series

    hi,

    i'm new and start to learn more about JLC watches.

    i see several postings and photos in Internet with master control and master compressor for the same model of watch ie: geographic

    but, in JLC website, i can't find the master compressor series.
    http://collection.jaeger-lecoultre.c...ections/master

    what is the main different between control and compressor?
    apart from the look and feel, what should be considered to buy M.Control or M.Compressor?

    currently, i'm interested in jlc master control chronograph
    and i notice, master compressor also got chronograph

    thanks!

      You can find the Compressor Series under the Master Extreme category in JLC website.

      The Master Control is the dressier class of watches whereas the Compressor is a series of mainly diver watches from the Manufacture.

      Hope this helps.

          Let's see, a Master Control is more dressy with cufflinks while Master Compressor is more rugged which will look very nice when you are in jeans although it does look pretty at home with work shirts too. Both are very good watches & I guess you will have to use your heart to decide. I have some older models, so have a look.

          Alfa 4C- maybe next time

            hi turboducky,

            i admire your JLC and IWC collection

            i like compressor too but i am afraid it is too thick and probably goes with control

              Anytime, master compressor series. It is the perfect versatile watch suitable for any occasion, be it formal or casual. Don't worry about the thickness, it is not thick. except for the diving master compressor series. the master compressor chrono 2 is one of the best looking watch from JLC imo.

                Thanks but the compressor isnt very thick, the new Dual Time is quite a versatile piece & goes well with jeans & work shirts. You should take a look if you pass by Sincere & give it a second thought.

                      To add to the challenge, try out the Tribute to Reverso 1931. You have to put that on your wrist before you decide if it speaks to you. If it does, remember to look out for the 2013 release of the Reverso Duoface which in my opinion, is as good as any Reverso could be.

                        i understand that hour glass did not carry jaeger so only left with sincere and cortina.
                        went to cortina @ raffles city and they only have compressor gmt $12,800 with 15% discount ... i assume this is standard walk-in discount
                        where else to get jaeger and what is the max discount one can nego?

                              Oh means I haven't been updating myself for a long time already, sorry. I recall having viewed JLC watches at the Hour Glass at Ngee Ann City a few years back.

                              Thanks for letting us know
