Being a heavy cigar smoker, let me explain...

... Its not a cigar cutter. And u do not cut the cigar with the part on the watch. You use the gold part ( a small round razor blade ) that is taken off the watch to creat a hole in the cigar by screwing it in the cigar instead of cutting it. Its more precise then cutting the cigars. It protects the "capuchon" that is the end of the cigars from which u will smoke it.
Doesn't work on small modules, works only on the big cigars, meaning those with a serious diameter, like the epicure number 2 on those pics ( smoking one as i am writing this thread ) 
As i cannot see the reverse of the golden part with " JMG" on it, i suppose this is the way to use it.
IF NOT, then its only for one size of cigars that fits the hole in the watch. But i doubt, cigar lovers that would be mad enough to buy such a watch must be real amateurs, and real amateurs love changing modules and cigar types.

P.s: More of a gadget, i still love to do it with my teeth

At least an useful complication ! Cesar Jean-Mairet tries to help us with this watch, perfect for the foolish smokers who forget their cigar cutter. I met Mr Jean-Mairet at the 4 Seasons in which an exhibition was organized during the SIHH. I would like t...
Some sort of cigar "punch" cutter?

I am a cigar smoker. I usually use a "guillotine" type cutter, but many smokers use a circular punch to cut a small hole in the tip of the cigar.

A perpetual calendar as well as a Tourbillon? I like that steel chronograph. What's the size? A
No.
By: foversta : February 3rd, 2009-15:07
It is not a perpetual calendar. It has a second timezone (12 hours indication with the retrograde hand), a night/day + day + weeks indications The diameter of the chronograph is 41mm. Fr.Xavier

... as a commission by Franck Muller and Ulysse Nardin. Production was made by Jacquet, now LaJoux-Perret. This watch is definitely nice, especially the steel variant. The pink gold revolver trigger is not my cup of tea ... Regards, Marcus
