OK, guys, today I’m going to talk about my recent hands-on experience with the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar. I’ve been eyeing this watch for a while, so let me take you through my journey.
First off, I started by doing some serious window shopping. I mean, I was all over those watch forums and blogs, soaking in everything I could about the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master collection. I narrowed down my options, and this Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar kept popping up.
Then I got my hands on some good images and descriptions. Man, this watch is clean! It doesn’t have all that extra clutter you see on some other high-end watches. It’s all about that sleek, minimalist design, which I love.
So, I decided I needed to see it in person. I visited a local watch shop that had one in stock. Holding it in my hands, I was struck by how thin and light it felt. I mean, it’s just 9.4mm thick! And the diameter is 39mm, which is a perfect size for my wrist. It felt really comfortable, not too bulky or heavy. I think it is a true classic within Jaeger-LeCoultre’s vast portfolio.
I spent a good hour there, just admiring the watch. I checked out the dial—a new blue-grey color, by the way—and it’s gorgeous. It’s simple but elegant. The moon phase window caught my eye too. It added a touch of class that I really liked. I really liked the sub-seconds paired with the moon phase …
After that, I went back and forth, comparing it to other watches in the Master collection, like the Ultra Thin Moon. Both are great, but the Perpetual Calendar just had that extra something that spoke to me.
Finally, I pulled the trigger and got the watch. Since then, I’ve been wearing it almost every day. It’s become a part of my daily routine. I’ve gotten a lot of compliments on it, and I have to say, I feel pretty good wearing it.

So there you have it, folks. That’s my story of getting the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Perpetual Calendar. It’s been a fun ride, and I’m super happy with my choice.
