Is there another Reverso to be announced today?

I’m hoping for a Tribute to Tribute 1931 Reverso...aka Tribute to 2011 Reverso

Great summary!
Will read it properly later
By: robsallnow : April 14th, 2021-01:25
but I’m glad you’re not the only one that has seen somewhere that this is exactly the same width and length as Tribute Moon and Calendars but the JLC website now shows them as being 49.7mm 🤔
Great article and images

Thanks. Great watch, albeit it’s huge in size for a reverso.
Was at JLC MBS

Was told the Nonantieme piece will arrive in Singapore next Wednesday.
Yep !

Great writeup, Nico.
By: ChristianDK : April 14th, 2021-04:05
Very interesting. One I will need to see IRL to see how I like. But a very nice concept.
Thanks for the confirmation
By: xxn : April 14th, 2021-09:20
will be interesting to see if Reverso will become a mainstream watch with these 90th’s.....
Beautiful watch and a fitting tribute.

I particularly like the verso side; the blue and white look wonderful with the rose gold and the unusual complication of the semi-jumping hour is the cherry on the cake. Thank you for the description and great pictures. Regards Kev.
A great write up 👏🏻...
By: W72 : April 14th, 2021-05:13
But I am disappointed that the jumping hour is not a second time zone but the same as Recto face... a Reverso function that is not fully utilized....
Great write up
By: MiguelFlash : April 14th, 2021-05:14
Love the JLC new releases especially the Nonantième. Pure class
My honest take?
By: Esharp : April 14th, 2021-05:40
Yawn. Yep. It looks nice enough. Probably wouldn’t say no if someone gave me one. Special? Not really, to my eyes at least. It feels a bit like a special edition for the sake of having a special edition. “Guys, we’ve got the big complicated one. And we’ll...
Thank you for your review.
By: Horo_Traveler : April 14th, 2021-06:18
I wish they had made it in white metals in a smaller case with a dual time indicator on the back, but that would be a different watch. With the large size and in rose gold, this loses the discrete sophistication of prior anniversary pieces. Still, an impr...
I love the look of this one !
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : April 14th, 2021-06:57
But was told some time back it's probably too big for me by someone in JLC... hence I passed. If only it's smaller Cheers Robin
Interesting! I like the big date
By: jml_watches : April 14th, 2021-07:28
Time on the back is definitely different - at first thought it was power reserve indicator, like they did in an XGT case a few years ago. Only slight disappointment is the jump hour times does show a different time like like the Reverso tribute moon. Stil...
Thank you for this informative review, Nico
By: Ano Nuevo : April 14th, 2021-08:16
You clarified two factors that I’ve not seen in any other report on this new watch: 1. The verso dial time cannot be set independently of the recto. I find that disappointing in a Duoface model. 2. You explained what JLC did not — the meaning of “semi-jum...
I adore the semi-circular tiers around the semi-jumping hour window.
By: sirdavid : April 14th, 2021-11:31
I don't know much about Art Deco design, but these details do seem very appropriate for the Reverso. I''d love to see a single-sided Reverso with (semi) jumping hour, something akin to the Cartier Tank à Guichets, but with a bit more decoration such as en...
I wonder if it would be possible...
By: sirdavid : April 14th, 2021-11:37
to have (semi) jumping hours displayed in two separate windows on one face? And whether that would make for a legible way to display multiple time zones in a small space?

(1) I would really have loved this to be a DuoFace, somehow. (2) I see the future, but in steel...Grande Date with Moonphase, and something really nice on the back - either a flat-back for engraving or a DuoFace. -Dean
Such a beautiful offering from JLC
By: Brandon Skinner : April 14th, 2021-12:41
Almost every Reverso poses the problem of having one side better than the other. Here I appreciate both equally but for different reasons. Well done JLC and thanks for the info Sir Nicolas
Thanks!
By: eklektik : April 14th, 2021-13:57
Thanks Nicolas for the review, particularly the technical side! I really find the appearance attractive. The moon face is really nice for example. Few points: - a second time zone at the back would have make sense, particularly with the day/night indicato...
Thanks for your comments and questions, my friend. Here are some answers.
By: amanico : April 14th, 2021-14:28
As for the second time zone, I totally agree with you. I would have preferred one, too. The Septantième is a hell of a heavy watch. I think the 90eme is less heavy. And don't forget that the 70eme is way thicker. Yes, I will try to get a video to show you...
Pleasure.

Thanks Nico

Once again JLC have produced a thoughtful and interesting design. Well done JLC! All the best Jon
JLC blew a great opportunity
By: chintu : April 14th, 2021-20:14
The digital hour change should have been instantaneous. A dragging hour seems such a major compromise and a poor horological choice. The entire sense of anticipation of that milli-second flash of digital display changing is denied when the hour will now c...
An undeniably beautiful Reverso. BUT
By: MTR : April 15th, 2021-17:54
unfortunately only a “superficial” beauty! It bothers me that function follows design here. I can live with the fact that the change of the hour on the back does not take place instantly, but I find it a real shame that the time on the verso is always the...

Yes, indeed Fabrizio,

I would 'sell my soul' for the Quadriptyque as well ........ (or my marital partner for that matter xP)

By: FabR : June 10th, 2022-14:35
It's difficult for me to....
By: InHavenPro : June 10th, 2022-12:27
have a firm stance on this one. In my mind, it somehow manages to be both interesting and uninteresting at the same time.... Very few pieces from anyone manage to strike that odd balance of features........
I think....
By: InHavenPro : June 12th, 2022-17:36
that Nico's suggestion of a greyish blue dial would be optimal for this color combination you proposed. Darker and subtler than the moonphase blue so that it doesn't overwhelm and render the moonphase reading difficult! Cheers, Filip
