If you own the watch, you can post a wristshot. If you don't own it, just post a generic pic of the Reverso model you like most. Post both faces, if it's a dual face.

Hi all,

I posted about this watch a few months ago when first purchased, but thought I'd follow-up with some extra photos and impressions after a few months of ownership.

This watch was purchased from a local dealer who had just received it- sold by a collector of perpetual calendars who acquired the watch new in 2002, wore it for a few years, then stored it in a safe since the mid- 2000's. It was sold with box and papers, and having just undergone a comprehensive service by JLC in…

I just purchased a Reverso with the black alligator leather strap due to AD availability, but I would have preferred the version with the brown Casa Fagliano strap if available. When I went to purchase that strap separately through the JLC website, they warned me that the strap sold separately is calf leather “designed by Casa Fagliano,” but not actually the same strap. The actual Casa Fagliano strap is sold only with the watch. They said it does feel slightly different on the wrist but…

New to this forum. Close to getting a Reverso classic sub seconds (medium) and wanted to check with those more knowledgeable about suitability as a daily. My idea is that this watch works be my “signature@ watch – like some people have distinctive glasses, this would be my personality accessory to wear most days.

Is the watch up to it? The AD made the watch sound very fragile (?).

Thoughts?

Pic is the medium. I tried the large and felt it was too large as a daily. Welcome thoughts on the…

Hi. I am very interested in this watch which, if purchased, would be my highest quality watch. I am struggling with medium vs. large. All of my watches have round dials. Most are 38mm to 40mm case diameter with the exception of a couple 42mm divers.

The nearest JLC boutique is a 2 hour drive. They have the medium in stock but not the large, so an in person try on of both is not an option at this time. However, if the large is a better option, I am certainly willing to wait.

I can see that they’ve added a strap. Does that make it new?

Went to order a strap today from the JLC website and discovered that there has been what appears to be an accross-the-board price increase of about 12%. Also, spot checked a few watches and the increases there appear to be about 5%. I assume Trump's tariffs are to blame.
