·After the 37mm JLC RdM, I still had a hankering for a 37mm Master Moon. I started liking the black dialled version after seeing a lovely example from Robert-Jan.
After an exchange of emails, Spiki pointed me in the direction of one from Denmark on Chrono24. Spiki's had a hand in enabling my Reverso and my RDM, so off I went. The seller and I skyped, and it was a pleasant surprise to find out he and I were in the same profession, plus he was a really nice chap.
After sorting out shipping difficulties (insured shipping out of Denmark costs $270!), I finally got the watch today. Some quick shots on the iPhone:
The 37mm size is perfect for my wrist, though as usual the standard strap is too long for my skinny wrists. The design harks back to the 1950's TDMPs and is nicely balanced, IMO.
And here's where it meets its 37mm cousin...
... and its ancestor
As a plus point the seller included the 2002 JLC Catalogue as well. My first real (vs PDF) JLC catalogue.
It's going to go off to get a new strap and get serviced next week, which means I won't see it for the next 2 months or so. 🙁 Ah well.
Pretty chuffed with this new acquisition. Thanks W for your 3rd JLC enabling effort! 👍
