This is completely unhelpful; but when I was working at a ridiculously posh school, they had their own polo team, about half of the team wore reversos. I attended quite a few games and the reverso was probably the most common watch worn by the players, both because the history of it being *THE* polo watch, and the fact that it is actually a really good sports watch. If you're in an environment where you are going to be active, but also need a watch that can be very dressy, the reverso really is an amazing option.

I absolutely LOVE Reversos but for some unexplained reason, I just can't KEEP them! I can't even begin to put it into words. First of all, I am of the camp that if one has a Reverso, it should definitely have BOTH sides fully utilized. I cannot imagine buying one with the shiny, blank piece of real estate on the flip side unless I was most definitely going to plunk the coin down for some ornate carving of initials or my family crest. Except I don't have a family crest, AFAIK. I had both the Reverso Gran'Sport chronograph and Grand Reverso Ultra Slim Duoface. Sold both of them after some time. The Gran'Sport I kind of wish I kept (truly sporty, integrated bracelet, very shiny, very unique) and though the 2 time zone Duoface was a cool function, the watch was kind of blah and boring in its retro styling. Like I said, I cannot explain it. I like the IDEA of Reverso. I'm not against the styling. Maybe because I felt they were a little on the delicate side with a short power reserve? SMH. I may yet end up getting another one in the future. But I hope not. But I LIKE them!

I really want to like this watch but there's something stopping this from happening. I think it's the lugs, the horizontal lines on the front of the case and the awkward way it appears to sit on the wrist. I also think I'd like it more if it did away with the Reverso mechanism and was a couple of millimeters thinner. However, with all those changes it wouldn't be a Reverso. BTW, the precise mechanical click of that Reverso locking mechanism is highly addictive. Great video.
