I just bought one of my favorite watches, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Duoface Classic Medium size reference Q2458422. The JLC Reverso Duoface Classic Medium fits me similarly like the Cartier Santos Medium. I also go over some Q&A questions about collecting and comparing the Reverso to other watches in this review.

There needs to be a medium tribute douface. the 47-49mm is way too big for most people.

Imho the proportions of the bigger models are off even. They seem a tad too bulky and lose some of the understated classiness

@@alberto_saxo yep. Trying on the Monoface vs. Duoface the thickness difference is very obvious. I'm going for the Monoface just for that reason even though the Duo is really cool. Mono just feels classier and fits much better with the thinner case + slightly smaller dimensions (45.6 vs 47).

Medium is the only way to go. I have this exact piece. I keep it on the brown one now. I never wear this watch formally. Just casual. It’s an extreme scratch magnet. As a modern Santos owner you’ll know what to expect.

Congrats on the purchase and your 100k subs! Personally, I'd love a Reverso of any (medium) description, but I'll be buying second hand, someone else can pay the 40% price increase, and the 20+% loss on resale...

Very nice, especially as a Duoface. As you say, it would be nice to get more variations in this size. They used to have a flat area on the dial for the logo, but I don’t think it needs to stand out much. It’s all about subtleties with the Reverso

1:53 JLC really, really needs to bring that medium Tribute back. Current Tribute models are way too big. I saw this watch in 2016 and the blue dial was a far more beautiful shade than the current version's. If I had known it would be discontinued so quickly I would have bought it.

There is a slight workaround on the hacking. When the watch is low on power you can use the crown to hold the second hand by giving a slight negative pressure then letting it to at the top of the hour when synched. Prob not ideal but it it works.

I have the 53mm lug to lug version with the calandar wheel at the top, both the case size and date wheel have been retired sadly. Mine doesnt have the quick adjust for the travel time, have to rotate the crown the opposite direction for it to jump the hour. Its one of my top 3 in my collection.

Great review, think you just swung the vote for me: this is the version of the Reverso I need to get, that size is just perfect. The only thing that sort of bothers me a bit is the absence of proper bracelet options, but you seem to have found a way around that (which bracelet is that exactly? any others you'ld recommend?). Thanks for this highly informative video!

@m.stewart8094
@m.stewart8094 7 ай бұрын
my only complaint is that the "travel time" should be labeled "home time" and the button should jump the hour hand of the silver face. Otherwise the day/night indicator on the dark side makes no sense I as I know whether its day or night but just looking out the window.

@MinuteMon: 8:43: Maybe Carat & Co should get in to the pre-owned watch business, because the 1994 Minute Repeater is-like most Reversos of that period-in a so-called Grand Taille case which, at42x26mm, is the same size as today's "medium". Same for the 1991 Soixantième, 1993 Tourbillon, 1996 Chronograph Retrograde, 1998 Geographique, and 2000 Perpetual Calendar-but alas not for the Tryptique (54.5x34.5mm and 18mm thick!) or the Hybris Artistica gyrotourbillon ("only" 51.2x31mm) you briefly show.

Well, the Reversos were extremely good value before, so a bit of a price bump wasn't out of the question, but they've definitely over-corrected and into a cooling market too. I'd be betting on discounts in the future.

A Tank Must? What? Do you just prefer the stainless steel? Tossing up between the Duoface and the Tank Louis would be the closer price comparison. Solid gold manual movement, versus steel duo-movement is an interesting toss up. (Get a Tank Louis with one of the coloured enamel dials 😀)
