Reversos
I need to learn more about this wonderful watch. I still have the first (and only) one that I bought from about 10+ years ago, but it never gets wrist time for me. It is the most basic quartz stainless steel version. It now seems so tiny! I am looking to add a Reverso to my collection and would love to hear from afficionados on what they think. I am especially interested in the Gran Sport and Squadra Reversos. The Reverso is a watch that just doesn't seem to get a lot of Forum time....but maybe it hasnt been on my consciousness before. Time to pay attention for me.... I would really love to hear thoughts and views on this watch

From the Vintage to the Modern, it is just a world apart, my friend.
You will never be able to build an exhaustive collection of Reversos, it is like the Memovox: Too many references and variations. Since you focused on two models, the Gran sport and the Squadra, here are my quick thoughts: The Squadra is a bit too big and...
+1, Baron .. Endless variations, so nice .. :)

About the Reverso…
Hi Baron, My first JLC was a manual Reverso GT some 10+ years ago… Now she does not get the amount of wrist time she deserves. Mainly because of the size… Here is a couple of Reverso post I wrote: Reverso Gran’ Sport Duo The reversible b...

Gran Sport or not
Personally I like the basic Reverso design. It is a watch that can be flipped, in other words the dial or the look can be changed in a few seconds. There are other watch collectors who have also voiced their opinion which I agree. Reverso though looks int...
Perfectly written, Gup.
