Good Day, I’m lucky owner of Reverso 1931, acquired recently. I was looking for dress watch, and on short list there was Breguet 5140 (enameled dial) and Reverso TT1931. I decided to pull the trigger on Reverso as I really appreciate the power of such sim...  

I have some belts made in a similar way and they work very well. Love your Cat !

This is such a great watch and I am still wonderinf why JLC stopped producing it. That strap looks absolute brilliant - I would be curious to hear where you got it. This younger cousin says hello: Cheers ...  

Hello. Thanks. You have great, America edition Reverso. The strap is made by company Eulit - model palma. Just google Eulit perlon. they are available everywhere.

Definitely suits it.I also have 1931 Tribute and will post pic when can figure it out.

Which boutique did you get it from? Geneva boutique? You're very lucky to have gotten it so late! Are you going to try a Cordovan Fagliano strap anytime soon? If so, what color of Cordovan strap?

I will PM You.

As I like to overthink sometimes, I started to experiment how to make inserts - supports to keep strap in right position against case in Reverso TT 1931. Please see prototype: ...  

Since the Eulit Palma perlon strap is one piece, did you simply thread the strap over the spring bars and under the watch back? Or did you modify the strap in some way to make it fit? Congratulations on giving your watch an original and very sporty look, ... 

Since TT 1931 in thin - additional layer of strap is not making big difference.

And kudos to you for a very original yet nice-looking strap idea. Reversos don’t always look appropriate with third-party straps, but yours fits well with the Art Deco motif of the watch. Your last photo has convinced me that even I can handle the install... 

I have used thin spring bars - aftermarket ones. This I recommend. I didn’t want to brake or bend OEM ones. The second reason is that thickness of this strap is bigger than normal perlon straps, because of woven texture.

I love vintage perlon and nylon straps also. Give the watch a completely vintage character 👍🏼 And I love your kitty also! Is a he or a she? (My guess is a he) Best. René
