Keeping it classy never goes out of style. This Master Control sets a calm scene with balanced registers, the day and month at 12:00, and a moon quietly cruising at 6:00, then lets the pulsometer whisper around the edge. Nothing is loud, and everything has purpose. The Master Control line, born in the 1990s, was built from discipline and named after the 1000 Hours Control testing certification that every piece had to endure. Clean shapes, clear thinking, and mechanical engineering all come together in a design that turns to elegance once the testing is complete.
When Jaeger-LeCoultre seeks classic elegance, all they need to do is look back to their deep heritage, and in this case they drew inspiration from their round watches of the 1950s. But here the timepiece is modern in all the right ways, with a 40 mm case and a 65 hour power reserve powered by the calibre 759. The triple date moonphase chronograph offers so much in terms of usability, yet holds the complications perfectly balanced. Even the subtle choice of a pulsometer instead of a tachymeter elevates the piece into a doctor’s watch rather than a racing tool.
One of the reasons we are so passionate about watches is that every time we put one on it can make us feel a certain way. Polished, put together, and distinguished. Who wouldn’t want to feel this way?
