 Well, it JUST arrived - My NEW Jacques Lemans "Geneve" 2824-2 Auto ...

It's "Presented" in a really NICE Beechwood Box ...






And, Once You Open 'Er Up, Things Look EVEN BETTER ...


 




 
And, IMHO, The Closer You Look, The BETTER IT Looks! ...






Nice Double-Fold, Push-Button, HIDDEN CLASP! ...





And a REALLY NICE Pearlaged Nickel-Plated (Gen. SWISS! :P) ETA 2824-2 Movement ...




 


I REALLY Love The Way The Dial Looks ...





And The "Understatedly-Elegant" Brushed/Polished Bracelet, Case and Bezel! ...





 

Finally, VERY "Comfy" On The Wrist! ...






Could this "GEM Of A 42mm Watch" be improved? 

Sure - with the addition of a screw-down crown, some crown protectors, and a domed crystal (instead of flat), but that's about it! ... Really REALLY!


Frankly, for $270 (with coupon - on 3 Ez-Payz), I think this watch was a steal! ... I LOVE IT!

 I came close to pulling the trigger on one of the other colors.  Just don't care for the hands personally.  I think everything else is very nice though.  Congratulations and enjoy.

 Great watch!!!:)  I have the strap version and I like it.  Much better deal than the $600+ original intro price.

 Nice one! :) I've seen the same watch in white, and that's a beauty, but the brown dial is really striking.  Congratulations!

 That is a very similiar watch to my Lucien Piccard.The  differences are  that my Lucien has a blue dial it is a mid sized watch  it does not have the numbers:dude: inside the dial and is only wr to 3 atm.On the plus side it looks like mine has more lume and it cost 69 dollars .The display back, case ,hands and bracelet look exactly the same all ss.Movement is citezen miyota.That is a beautiful dive watch congrats.
