As a fellow owner of the original Reverso Duo, I found your insights very helpful. It looks like one sexy beast indeed, if it's making you think about moving away from your existing Duo!
I briefly shared this 2016 novelty in the new collection preview, in December 2015 . THE question which comes to mind is this one: " Is this really a novelty "? I would immediately say that it rather is an evolution, since we had a Duoface in the " GT cas...
I have been waiting for this. An elegant, classical, dual time-zone watch which features my favourite colour on both dials and the strap. It is practically screaming my name (I guess I would like to be classical and elegant...). There is one thing only th...
One complaint that I've had for a few years now is that the original Duo and it's update (with the pusher) (271 reference), had the "Day/Night" subdial correctly oriented, so that night ran from 18:00 hours to 6:00 hours, and day ran from 6:00 hours to 18...
accompanied by great photos. Great job, Nico. The short hands on the verso do not bother me as they seem to fit the smaller dial. The "day" and "night" placement does seem rather arbitrary, but a minor distraction. All in all, I think this is a great addi...
They had this new model in the JLC boutique when I went in the weekend before last....I'd just bought the Ultra Thin version from elsewhere having waited to see what they'd release for the 85th birthday. While I love the blue applied markers and hands I'd...
Thanks for the informative review. I\'ve been very eager to hear more about this model for some time and your report didn\'t disappoint. It was particularly interesting to read the comparison with other models.
but haven't had much to contribute being an amateur. I've got two Omega watches, a Seamaster from about fifteen years ago and a vintage DeVille from the late 60's. Having small wrists I find it quite difficult to find watches that don't look comically lar...
Hi I Saw this in London the day after the launch event - have to say I'm mightily impressed with it. I have the mk 1 version of the Duo and it takes something for me to like a move a way from that. A couple of things are worth noting - the front dial is d...

And it might be my own crazy taste, but I love the pushers on the old models. And, as Rob also pointed out, the round subsections dial vs the square. To my tastes they were very close to perfection with the old. And this may be a case of the perfect spoil...
+1 on the short hand, but that\'s a given. The other main thing are the round subsecond dials @ 6. To me the pure looking Art Deco-type rectangular ones, still are more attractive & coherent.. The trigger mechanism is a really smart solution, and time set...
Thanks a lot for it, though! It is my favourite of the 2016 Reverso collection and the slightly smaller size is certainly welcome in my eyes. The fact that the second time zone is now slider operated is a nice detail, too. The combination of the blue hand...
Absolutely stunning piece with great close-up photos! Definitely one of my favorite releases for the year of 2016! So many gorgeous pieces, so few wrists! Thanks! Anthony
..whether I would part from my first Series Duo Face, which has been with me since early 80ies, I am not yet sure.. But I am tempted, very much tempted .- My other option ( as I have already a Duo), is the Reverso 1948, which is however, another animal.. ...
.. I\'ll have a 2nd look when they also show me the 1948 side by side.. You are right, "Fatal Attracrion", sort of .. And all that in a time of "diet " for me.. LoLoL !! Best, my friend hs
ALL: I bought the Duo. How many will be issued?JLC released numbers on the Magritte, Van Gogh, London [green] Boutique), and some other Tribute reverso (500), but not on the Tribute Duo. If anyone knows how many will be issued, I would greatly appreciate ...
The JLC Reverso, apart from being a gorgeous watch any way you look at it imho, is also one of those iconic pieces that are instantly recognizable. It's one of those watches that you can hand down to your child, granchild, close friend, whoever -- it is a...
