JLC Squadra Hometime 18k 1of1?
Just thought I would share this short tale with you all. I received a JLC Reverso Squadra Hometime in 18k gold for my 30th birthday last weekend. I started to research the watch and the model after I noticed that the second hand on the sub-dial was gold, ...
Great accident!
I owned a Duometre in platinum which came withe the wrong dial... I was very happy with, too. Lucky guy! Best, Nicolas.
Hard to believe
It's almost hard to believe that even at this level, "mistakes", if you can call that one, can be made. Great "mistake" though...lends to a new level of exclusivity where this is concerned. Congratulations is in order, I suppose Richard
Very cool mistake!
Congrats on your birthday and a unique Reverso! Probably mistakenly put on yours from this one… The black version of the Squadra HT in PG has the sub second hand in PG. Best Blomman...
Sub dial from black 18k
Funny you said that as the AD reported back that JLC thought the dial from the black face was more than likely accidentally used instead. Ridiculous to think that it got past all those rigorous checks!?
Well, in the end...

With recent sterile dials out there, I'm not too surprised.

Excellent news
What is really great is that JLC is going to confirm the mistake in writing. It was already a neat birthday gift, but this clearly makes it even better. Wear in good health. Regards, George
