jarno trulli - looking for opinions

Would like to hear from previous and current owners of this piece. Do you still love it? How did / does it wear? Did the styling grow old? How is the value holding up?

Thx

The JT is a nice watch, CF casing with ceramic bezel. The watch pops with either a red or white rubber strap. The chrono pushers are so so to me. Would have been nicer with the bigger pushers like RB2 or MS. It is a pretty rare watch, hardly seen them floating around.

I have it and it’s a strong watch.
Is one of the few AP ROO who you can wear it like a tool watch.
Cermet bezel it’s strong, hard to scratch and it’s a little shiny in the like.
The watch is light on the wrist and can be worn easily!
Overall it’s one of the few AP ROO who I want to buy it again one day!

I haven’t owned it, prefer the 44’s, but It can be found for around $25k. Saw one 6-9 months ago for $22,500. Release price was, I believe, $38k, so as for holding value, not so much

Sold mine as it was too thick for me and I didn't like the red accents after a while...

Its a keeper. Super light and comfortable.. shiny cermet against matte forged carbon is such a great combo. The dial has a super fine tapessrie usually reserved for royal oaks

prices have drifted close to new 42mm releases, since you may need to factor in a service or a new carbon case. Well worth the price even with that factored in, imo it beats them easily despite being 8 years old

I have seen it a few times. Doesn't sing to me. Maybe bec I don't like grey. Cermet bezel is great though.

How much you quoted for the case? USD4k+?
