These are such stunning watches, I wish I could afford one. I really liked the shot at 19:50 with the close up of the dial. Beautiful detail on that dial

Yes the brush finish on the dial is so nice

I bought my wife a reverso 5 years ago for our anniversary I was so jealous and she returned the favor this year. I’m a watch enthusiast and have owned many Rolex, Omega, Cartier, Tudor and now I’m a proud owner of a Reverso Tribute Duoface Calendar. 49.4x29.9 mm What I love about it the most is that it’s a self wind so it’s much more personal. You have a closer relationship with your watch because you need to constantly wind the watch. It’s wonderful to hear the pallet tic as you wind the watch. It’s my favorite watch. This gentleman is right, it was made to be a sports watch but here in America, we wear it as a dress watch since it has a beautiful leather band. They only use leather from an Argentinian leather company. So even JLC uses the best parts for their time pieces. JLC, a watchmakers watch. Just a small bit of criticism. Please look into getting a manicure my French friend. It will be more appealing to your subscribers like me. I’m a new subscriber. Thank you

I've had one for about a decade. These are amazing watches and even with the tiny and thin movement, you rarely have to set the time. Some years ago I had a vintage one and I kept the bracelet which I've put on my classique. It's a great everyday watch which doubles as a discrete and attractive bracelet.

Love the Reverso, it's truly an art piece. I was wondering if you know where I might get technical drawings of the Reverso (with accurate measurements)? I want to make a 3D printed model the size of a small clock, for my bedside or wall.

A more practical mind would've just gotten a flexible strap or bracelet on his/her ordinary watch and turned the watch dial side facing down during a round of Polo, but where's the Sport in that? 😋

@FrenchWatchCollector Жыл бұрын

Hahah. That is a good solution but maybe a little bit less panache

@alanmckinnon6791 Жыл бұрын

Well it was done in 1923 or thereabouts, flexible straps and bracelets didn't really exist yet
