Jaeger LeCoultre Controversy Remains Unresolved

It was one month ago when concerns about the similarity between the new Jaeger LeCoultre in-house chronograph movement shown here:


JLC Calibre 75x

and the F Piguet 1185 shown here:

F Piguet 1185

surfaced on the Internet and I covered this in an article already. Later, someone collated a further set of comments floating around and posted them as a long comment on the blog item. There is a lot of emotion about this and you can find the main thread at ThePuristS.com on this topic. This is probably where it will be eventually resolved. In the meantime, still no word from JLC.
