Hi,
The Grand Sport Chrono is a very beautiful expression of the Reverso concept, certainly one I'd love to and may get someday.
I've seen it once only as it was somewhat expensive for that time. Yet I still see it as a bargain in the classical chrono world. Strange no?
If you've never handled it my only concern would be that it is pretty thick.
If you find the current Grande Reverso thickness appropriate you may like the thickness of the Grand Sport.
if not I would not buy it before handling it.
Let us know.

I kow, I was amazed myself, but all the guys told me, and JLC and other brands too, that if you want to swim with a watch, you have to choose a minimum of 100 meter WR. When you dive from a swimming pool, the pressure is higher, when you swim, it's the sa...
In that case....
I presume I am OK to swim in my EWC as it is 100 metres rated and has the screw down compressor crown and pushers. Is that a fair assumption? I swam a lot with my Cartier Chronoscaph (also 100 metres rated) at it was fine. Thanks. Simon
Grande Sport Chrono...
I am far from an expert on this movement but from what I had heard anecdotally, the movement is a very complex chrono with retrograde function - groundbreaking at the time. That being said, it is complex and can be a bit delicate from what I understand. I...
