A new chronograph joins the line of Master CompressorExtreme LAB watches, a collection distinguished by precise and reliable time measurement. The Master Compressor Extreme LAB 2 embodies a combination of scientific materials, cutting-edge materials and horological research. Better still, the master artisans of Jaeger-LeCoultre have breathed into it their passion for pushing ever further the limits of the world around us.
The Manufacture systematically applies a fundamental principle to all
its creations: however complex an automatic watch, it makes no
compromises when it comes to functionality and pragmatism. This new
model thus combines extremely sophisticated ergonomics with the
precision and reliability that are a must at Jaeger-LeCoultre. The
Master Compressor Extreme LAB 2 features a crown-integrated function
selector that handles especially smoothly, a patented digital counter to
indicate the chronograph jumping seconds, a manual stop seconds device,
a radial power-reserve indication and a GMT function enabling
at-a-glance readings. Its movement is housed in a sturdy case made of a
light and resistant TiVan15 titanium alloy. It is fitted with a
high-tech ultra scratch-resistant ceramic bezel. Pushpieces specially
designed to ensure optimal user friendless provide a broad surface
coated with rubber grooves and serve as a crown guard. A fast
strap-change system is incorporated into the caseback and the new double
pin buckle provides unprecedented length adjustment ensuring a perfect
fit on the wrist.
The Master Compressor Extreme LAB 2 is designed to be a reliable and easily manoeuverable companion. The watchmakers of the Manufacture have succeeded in simplifying its handling while guaranteeing precision and reliability. To ensure access to the various watch functions whatever the conditions of wear, they have developed a function selector and an independent stop-seconds mechanism.
The function selector
Activated by means of a crown-integrated
pushpiece, the function selector serves to adjust all functions without
involving the inevitably delicate operation of pulling out the crown.
Once the function is selected, the adjustment can be made by simply
turning the crown. When the latter is in “neutral” position, the crown
serves to wind the barrels. One press takes the user to the position
required to adjust the dual time-zone display as well as the date.
Another press switches the crown to main time-zone adjustment mode. And a
final press brings the system back to its initial position.
This system does away with the need to
pull out the crown and thus ensures peerless water resistance without
needing to resort to the traditional compression key.
Stop seconds device
In the time-setting position, the
seconds hand continues running and the precision of the watch rating is
thus not impaired. To ensure perfect synchronisation with a time signal,
the user simply operates the slide located on the left side of the
case. Simultaneously sliding and pressing it stops the seconds hand,
which will continue running again when the slide is released. This
handling in two phases – sliding and pressing – serves to avoid any
accidental handling.

Functionality and endurance, the essential attributes of the Extreme LAB 2 Power reserve
The functions of a wristwatch depend on the force transmitted to the movement. The barrel of the Master Compressor Extreme LAB 2 guarantees a constant supply of energy for 60 hours. To consult the level of energy available at any given time, a new patented radial display providing simple and intuitive readability is arranged around the rim of the upper dial section. As the power reserve is gradually depleted, the various segments on the semi-circular indication turn from white to blue. This generously sized and unique display mode facilitates an instant check of the level of the barrel’s degree of winding, even in poor light.
Inventive pushpiece construction
The two traditional pushpieces are covered and protected by two L-shaped metal levers that pivot around the crown. They provide a broad contact area while protecting the crown and its integrated function selector. The upper surface of the pushpiece is coated with rubber grooves to ensure a non-slip grip.
Click on themouse wheelto seethe large size ... BIGFOTO
Dual time zone
The Master Compressor Extreme LAB has a GMT function. The second time zone, which displays the time in the owner’s usual place of residence, is shown by a second central hours hand, complete with a 24-hour display at 6 o’clock. The time zone is adjusted via a crown-integrated function selector and also drives the date in both forwards or backwards directions. This new model is powered by Jaeger-LeCoultreCalibre 780, featuring a column-wheel-controlled chronograph. Precision starting and stopping of the time measurement is ensured by a vertical coupling-clutch. The large balance with its 11.5 mg.cm 2 moment of inertia beats at a cadence of 28,800 vibrations per hour and its amplitudes vary only marginally when sustaining shocks. It is fitted with variable-inertia adjustment screws. The absence of the index generally used to adjust the frequency of the balance eliminates the risk of a change in position if subjected to a violent shock. The balance-spring stud- holder is held by two screws which, once put in place, are secured definitively. The balance-spring itself is fitted with a specific protective device that restricts its oscillation in case of shocks. The balance-cock is held by two pinning points in order to enhance its resistance.
When it comes to endurance, the automatic rotor, which is mounted on ceramic ball bearings that require no lubricant, winds the barrel of the watch so as to ensure a 60-hour power reserve. All movement components are meticulously decorated.
Strap system
The inventively designed new integrated interchangeable strap system is operated by means of a lever on the caseback. Rotating it releases the strap attachment and enables a smooth and easy change. The double alligator strap guarantees maximum durability and comfort, while the secure double pin buckle ensures precise two-position adjustment between each notch.
Digital chronograph minutes counter
In order to guarantee optimal at-a-glance readability the watchmakers of the Manufacture have designed a display enabling instant read-off. A large double- digit counter ideally situated at 12 o’clock indicates the chronograph minutes.
Click on themouse wheelto seethe large size ... BIGFOTO
Its operation is based on an instant-jump mechanism activated at the exact moment when the seconds hand completes one full turn. The chronograph hours totaliser is located at 9 o’clock, coaxially with the movement seconds.
A powerful design for optimised use
The black ceramic bezel of the Extreme LAB 2 offers superior protection, as does the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. The crown, also made of ceramic, echoes the particularly elegant bezel with its polished and satin-brushed finish. For the case middle, the engineers of the Manufacture have chosen a two-part construction on which an\ external brancard (carrier or shaft) serves as a strap attachment and a base for the inner case housing the movement. This system combines robustness and lightness thanks to TiVan15, a titanium and vanadium alloy providing 15% greater traction resistance than traditional titanium alloys.
The substantially openworked dial serves to observe the details of the calibre structure through the sapphire crystal. The black or ruthenium coating of various movement components creates a striking contrast with the numerals and hands in order to give the chronograph maximum readability. High-tech materials, daring shapes combined with the double-ringed case structure, add to the aesthetic intensity of this chronograph. It alternates between blue and white colour codes, particularly on the chronograph hours counters, permeated by a resolutely graphic spirit and driven by a concern for legibility. While its appearance is undeniably complex, the Master Compressor Extreme LAB 2 is easily tamed by the person who has chosen to adopt it.

DeWitt – ACADEMIAGrand Tourbillon Blue and Green Limited EditionNEW
DeWitt is unveiling its latest technical innovation, the Academia Grand Tourbillonwatch, a limited edition of 99 pieces, entirely conceived and assembled at the DeWitt Manufacture by its own master watchmakers.
This new Academia creation houses the calibre DW 8030, developed from the DW 8028 movement, the Manufacture's first 100% in-house manually-wound tourbillon movement, first presented in 2010. Built out of 327 component parts, this calibre is structured along traditional lines and incorporates numerous tried and tested technical features: 18,000 vph, a 65-hour power reserve, a Swiss lever escapement and a Straumann balance-spring with Phillips curve sequenced at 2.5 Hz.
Click on themouse wheelto seethe large size .... BIG FOTO
For its part, the time display in the form of a jumping hour and minute indication reflects DeWitt's unique creativity and ground-breaking approach, far removed from the codes of conventional watchmaking. For the setting of the hours, a rack mechanism is activated to give added mobility to the watch's dial. As each minute passes, a slip-spring moves into place, drawing the observer's eyes once again to the depths of this sophisticated mechanism.
Click on themouse wheelto seethe large size .... BIG FOTO
The dial is made up of a silvered grid linked to the watch's movement that recalls the inner workings of industrial machinery at the beginning of the 20th century. The date is displayed in a rose gold colour tone in a window at 3 o'clock and is adjustable by a corrector situated on the side of the case.
Click on themouse wheelto seethe large size .... BIG FOTO
Equipped with a circular 46 mm rose gold case adorned with the famous imperial columns, the Academia Grand Tourbillonwatch is one of DeWitt's most emblematic timepieces.
On the reverse side of the watch the sapphire case back reveals a day and night indicator, which takes on a blue colour tone to indicate night-time and a white colour tone to indicate day-time hours.
Like every DeWitt tourbillon, the Academia Grand Tourbillon watch bears
the signature of the watchmaker who assembled the timepiece, inscribed
on the decorative silvered grid located on the back of the movement. In
order to ensure perfect quality, DeWitt makes it a point of honour that
each grand complication movement should be assembled, set and tested by
the same master watchmaker.
Click on themouse wheelto seethe large size .... BIG FOTO
Last but not least, the Academia Grand Tourbillon watch fully complies with the extremely demanding finishing norms established by the DeWitt Manufacture. Crafted exclusively by hand, this model features finishes of rare quality that can be observed by looking at its sapphire case back. The barrel bridge is sandblasted with a "Black Gold" treatment, the balance has a rose gold colour tone and the carriage bar is satin-finished and rhodium-plated.
Click on themouse wheelto seethe large size .... BIG FOTO
The crown and the buckle are each crafted in 18-carat rose gold and adorned with the brand's "W" signature initial. With its flawless movement and powerful allure, the Adademia Grand Tourbillon watch combines the very best of traditional craftsmanship with the technical and aesthetic innovation that is characteristic of all watch designs by Jérôme de Witt.
