Just back from Europe
Was in London then Dusseldorf then Paris last week for work with my Lange 1. Met Nico in Paris 
Just returned to Singapore on Sat morning and on Sun late afternoon today I had to leave home for another business trip - this time to India.
Decided to wear a JLC this time. My Grande Reverso Duo Blue
Such a lovely watch. The blue lacquered dial is to die for! Finally I have some "me time" with this watch which I seldom get to wear since I got it for Christmas last year 
At the airport checking in
On the plane about to take off
My Blue is going to get a mate soon... Stay tuned in that post soon (after all my crazy business travels!)
Have a good weekend ahead my fellow PuristS friends!
Cheers
Robin

It was great to meet you, Robin. I have a small idea about your next catch...
But I won't spoil your pleasure to unveil it! Best, my friend. nicolas
Thanks Dave!
Yes I found myself staring at the dial many times today during meetings Glad you like it too Cheers Robin
You survived Nicolas?! ;)
Good to have you back, my friend! :) Looking forward to see your "new". Best Blomman
Yes survived the Vlad...
Only to become a mini Vlad lol! Soon my friend the new toy will be revealed Cheers Robin
Enjoy your business trip my friend.....
...lucky you, life is blue;) This "bleu" dial looks fantastic and personally I prefer it to the "rouge" as it is less "in your face", more discreet. Grande Reverso, grande Class! Cheers Francois
Life is Bleu indeed!
Well a nice sort of Blue Thanks Francois. I like both the Rouge and the Bleu - they are nice for different occasions Cheers Robin
A sublime Reverso! Wish it was ...
on my wrist! :-) Have a good trip to India & safe travels! Cheers, Ken
Thanks Ken!
Have you visited Singapore yet ? I know something nice is waiting for you too my friend Cheers Robin
I see the pattern...India gets the JLC's and Europe gets the ALS.
If my memory serves me correct, you wore a JLC on your last trip to India as well. :-)
Yes that's correct!
My last trip to India I wore the JLC mut perpetual. But not always ALS to Europe. I also wore my Montblanc Villeret and JLC to Europe before. To be honest it depends on the meetings I would be having and also my mood for the trip Cheers Robin
Stunnign blue dial!!
Great JLC for your trip. Where in India did you travel? I was in Bangalore and used by Breitling Navitimer 1461.
Thank you! I visit Mumbai and Pune
bangalore sometimes too but not this trip Let me know when you next visit and maybe we can meet here :) Cheers Robin
you bet, Robin!!
safe travels and watch out (no pun intended!!) for the water. My company has an office and apartment at the ITPL in Bangalore so I fly into Mumbai then down to Bangalore. quick car ride on that beautiful highway above the city, took only 45 minutes! Hope ...
Gorgeous Reverso
great picture. I imagine the beauty of the blue dial is difficult to capture in a photo. It looks at home on your wrist. Is this a boutique exclusive piece? Kind regards,
Thank you! And yes
It is a boutique special edition piece Lovely blue dial Cheers Robin
Back home and now on the road again!!
Thank you my friend. I have been on the road too often lately for work! Just back from India on Weds morning and Thu morning I am flying to Bali for a conference!! Cheers Robin
Your Reverso has given me some hope
I've tried a number of Reversos in the past and they always looked too big for me. And so I envied the piece from other people's wrists. You've given me hope that I may yet find one for my tiny, flimsy wrists!
If I can wear a grande Reverso...
You definitely can carry it even better than me my friend Go try them. I am sure you will like one of re Reversos for sure Cheers Robin
That strap!
Great idea to substitute the lighter chocolate brown Fagliano strap on your blue enamel Reverso, PCD! They look made for each other. A.N.
Great shot!
Welcome to our forum! Pls share more of your lovely reverso ! Cheers Robin
Thank you, everyone!
Really appreciate the warm welcome and compliments. Thank you all!
Strap question
PCD, may I ask a question --- Was the JLC boutique able to provide the light-color cordovan strap when you purchased your watch, or did you order the strap directly from Casa Fagliano? (I am asking publicly in case others are interested, but of course fee...
CF Strap
Hello Ano! Thanks again for your kind words. Just FYI, JLC is releasing a few more of them in the fall, sans Fagliano strap, however. Regarding the strap, I bought the watch preowned, and came with an extra brown Fagliano. What's interesting is that the s...
Thank you, Peter,
for your speedy and useful response. How lucky that you got an extra Fagliano strap with your blue Duo! I contacted the good folks at Casa F three years ago about getting another strap, but I never followed through. Again, congratulations on that superb w...
This is the Reverso I ordered on release from
JLC Paris Boutique. They never contacted me. I also contacted JLC Concierge three times. I never got a reply. Then I contacted JLC Boutique in Singapore. They replied and when I wanted to book a meeting and I told that I want to buy the watch in question,...
Maybe JLC Singapore passed me the Blue you booked?!!
Just kidding Kari. Not sure what happened but it doesn\'t sound right at all sigh.... Next time we meet i bring this blue Reverso along ok? Cheers Robin
