Another historic moment in the world of replicas: the successful development of the perpetual calendar, one of the three major complications in luxury watches! The Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Perpetual Calendar automatic watch has been successfully replicated by the factory, achieving all the functions of the original 868 movement without changing its original 39mm diameter. The replica utilizes the imported Seiko NH36 movement with modifications for multifunctionality.Features include:.1. Perpetual Calendar The perpetual calendar at the 8 o'clock position operates normally from 2024 to 2029. Like the original, it can be adjusted through a hidden button on the case, but it surpasses the original by allowing reversible adjustments. The original's year setting is irreversible; once adjusted, it requires costly repairs.2. Date, Month, and Week Calendar The date at the 3 o'clock position, month at the 6 o'clock position, and week at the 9 o'clock position all function properly. The date can be manually adjusted by pulling out the second crown for bidirectional adjustment, the month can be adjusted via the hidden button at the 8 o'clock position, and the week can be adjusted by moving the hands.3. Warning Window Located above the central hand axis, this fan-shaped window displays white when the year can be manually adjusted. When displayed in blue, it indicates a restricted t.mes
zone. It is advisable not to adjust the year during this period to avoid damaging the movement's lifespan, which is also true for the original.4. Moon Phase Dial The moon phase window at the 12 o'clock position synchronizes with the original movement, indicating one month per week.5. Hour, Minute, and Second Operates and adjusts just like a standard watch.6. Dimensions 39mm x 11.5mm.???????? Warm reminder: This replica version has a restricted adjustment zone for the quick date setting at the middle position of the crown. Based on the standard of the calendar jumping at midnight, the first two hours and the last three hours (from 10 PM to 3 AM) are restricted zones. It is recommended to adjust the date around noon (12 PM) for best results. ????????.Bugs:.1. Thickness: The original is 9.2mm thick, while the replica is 11.5mm, making it slightly thicker. This difference is not easily noticeable and does not affect the wearing experience.2. Movement Structure: There are differences in the movement structure due to the base movement used. This has its pros and cons: the con is that the similarity to the original movement is not high, but the pro is that the year adjustment in the replica can be cyclically adjusted, while the original is irreversible.
