Not normally a fan

Hi

I'm rather surprised by this - I like it, not normally struck by gold watches.

It really does have some warmth - think the rose gold markers on dial help. Really struck by the front dial.

Would be interesting to see the change in character of the steel version if that came with rose gold markers & hands.

Cheers

This is not a secret, the Reverso Tribute Duo in steel, unveiled in 2016, is my favorite Reverso from these last 4 years. Some will say it is cold, in steel, I find it particularly attractive. The case size, the dials, especially the recto, the trigger re...

takes precedence in steel case & the case remains understated. In rose gold version, I feel both are competing each other for the attention... Steel is my choice. Best, mahesh.,

What a shots!!

you really get two watches in one package, that's very convincing.

I don't think you ever explained how we adjust the time for the verso side.

how it works? Do you have any pics of the button? Adjust it requires a " tool"

All is here, Tyo.
