JLC has been my favorite brand for quite some time, and from the time I saw Altair's review of the Navy Seals Alarm I knew I had to have one. It was originally on my list for a couple years down the road, but I wanted one new, and with a limited run of only 1,500 I figured I should move it up the list. My AD was able to get his hands on one for me, and gave me a deal that I just could not refuse. I put a deposit down a few months ago, and Monday I left work early to pick her up.

It was pretty cold outside this afternoon...so I only took 2 pictures. It is supposed to warm up this weekend...so I will post more then. Cut me some slack on the 2nd picture...my son was outside with me, and insisted that The Undertaker make an appearance (6 years old...what was I going to do other than laugh). Anyways...here she is:

and for those who are 6 years old and LOVE the WWE:

Congrats, super watch! I just got the rubber bracelet on mine and can't recommend it enough!!! Changes the watch completely!

Great pics as well, nice and crisp! Enjoy that bad boy! JLC will certainly grow to be your favorite brand soon as it has become mine.

Thanks Altair. I have the articulated rubber bracelet as well as the rubber strap on order. My AD agreed to get me the rubber strap in place of the NATO (at no additional charge) since it is not my cup of tea. I also ordered a stitchless black leather strap for it that should be here in a week or so.

That is a pretty Rad watch! Ware it in good health.

The only thing that bothers me is the minute hand is a little too phallic for me. Anyone else notice this?

Nice looking watch, enjoy. Tell the "Undertaker" to get his own.
Best health, Frank

Nice. JLC has quickly become one of favorites. I'd love one of these, but it's a bit too much like my MCDC.

It's got as many Breitling bits in it as your diamond bezel.

Of course it's also much better looking and much better made

:poke: back at ya :!:
