Reverso Or Deco arrived today...
since i have owned my first Reverso (Grande GMT) years ago and later my second Reverso (Grande Taille) a year ago, i have been very impressed by the elegance and classy of Reverso and wanted to hunt for an early version of Reverso. Of course my dream is to get vintage Reverso, but the good condition of such vintage Reverso is rarely come by and in fact hardly found. even you found one, you need to pay for quite high cost. however it didn't stop me to hunt one more Reverso for my collection. luckily, when i saw this Reverso Or Deco model which caught my attention and was keen to own it at once, this watch especially has the Art Deco look with white gold applied indexes on black dial. the movement is manual winding calibre 846. i have put this Reverso on my wrist since i collected it from post office this afternoon, the performance does not let me down, i would say it is a very reliable and elegant daily wearer. because it is in white gold casing which looks like stainless steel, that does not give you show-off look feel when wearing it to office! anyway, just took some quick pics for this new family member, i placed it with my GMT side by side, you can see this Or Deco seems like a little young boy hiding behind the big brother, however he is actually the senior brother in terms of its production year!!! hope you guys like it too. stefan

Hunting is over ...
(at least for the moment ) ... and lucky you found a very beautiful piece. Congrats & and I wish you lots of pleasure wearing it. Oliver
at least for now, but....
many thanks Oliver. yes i also thought so, for now the hunting for more Reverso should be over.... ... but you see Nico's response, he wants me to hunt for the final one .... vintage ... Reverso.... before closing this thema he is bad, right...LOL. stefan...
I'm impressed, Stefan.
This Or Deco is a magnificient Modern Reverso. From the case to the dial. The next step is almost mandatory, my friend... A Vintage, to end the thema? Best, Nicolas
Nico... you are bad....
Nico, agree with you, this model is really magnificent one. mine has little special feature - i have compared mine with others, the JL logo and "Jeager LeCoultre" words are applied on near at the centre instead of those usual ones at the top of 12 o'clock...
Well, Stefan ...
I know where there are some nice Vintage Reverso available... Don't thank me. White or black dial? Central second or no second at all? It sounds like an endless story, my friend. Best, Nicolas
The nicest new vintage
You are right, this Or Deco is one of the nicest of the 'new vintage' reversos But you are also right in pursuing your quest of a 'true vintage'. As you can see, there is a good linkage between the 2, and to each its own charms......
As always, Clavi, a perfect illustration.
Of the linkage between a modern and a vintage watch. This comparative picture also points oiut the over dimensioned ( in height ) crown on the Or Deco. Great duo. Best, Nicolas
thanks, Clavi...
Clavi, one reason why i went to get my modern Reverso partly because i read your previous post showing your PG Or Deco Reverso... by the way, yours in pink gold is rare and gorgeous!!! stefan
this is now an ex
I am glad you were 'inspired' by this watch I previously posted here. The watch is unfornately not with me anymore. As I told before, this is one of the few watches I have sold, the primary (and actually only) reason was that it was just too 'mint' for me...
Clavi, your words inspired me again...
yes, i can see... ..."life is complicated" which also inspired me a lot and all these "hard" processes you mentioned force me to understand our weakness more! one thing you said is very interesting to and stimulating me - if the watch is too "mint", we te...
Great find, Stefan. Very classic.
I admit to not having even seen one in real life, unlike vintage Submariners or Speedmasters of the same age which seem to be available in much greater number. Thanks for taking the time to post the side by side pics. Now if you can slide the GT in betwee...
Ruckdee, these pics specially for you...
thanks, Ruckdee. as requested, i took pics for my Reverso family. hope you like it. stefan...
There's something impressive about this line up.
But I'm sure you need no education from me as you already know more about it than I do. A million thanks for taking the time to do this. I'll be sure to give local JLC fans the link to this eye-opening thread. Ruckdee
i don't think so, Ruckdee...
... my learning process is still young and just started, lot of thing that i need to learn more from you guys stefan
Congrats Stefan...
Great find. That's a nice modern looking 'new vintage' piece... Goh
Perpetual beauty...
long after so many aquisitions' enamore has worn off, the Reverso Art Deco will still shine as the queen of understatement. Congratulations. -Dean
you are right...
Dean... you are right, Reverso Art Deco is timeless piece. i smiled when wearing it with me today. stefan
love mine as well
I wear this about 3 days out of the week, rest of the time its my day/night, moonphase reverso....
One of my favourite dial.
The salmon dial enhances the beauty of this Or Deco. Very Classy. Feel free to post more pics! Best, Nicolas
I am very happy for you, Stefan! :)
A great catch, congrats! It’s good to see not only your memo collection is grooving but your Reverso collection as well! Best Blomman
thanks, Blomman...
.... I am also very happy for your new catch Polaris 65 yes, my memo and Reverso are growing fast, seems too fast... i need to control it a bit, but sometimes it is really hard to do so because such nice pieces keep passing by to my eyes stefan
Indeed, Stefan! :)
So many beautiful watches around! Which one to jump on, and which one to let pass..?! That is the question… Best Blomman
