3 years before the ALS Datograph.  This is also a built from the ground up manual, column wheel chronograph movement with additional complication.  What is everyone’s thought on that?  Datograph is a beautiful piece and the collector community always lauds it as the “first”.

what a great story about one of my favourite Reverso's, I knew the story about the genesis of the 6oth series as Nico once published years ago, but this focus on my beloved Retrograde is new for me.

Thank you for this wonderful article!

Lots of insight we wouldn't learn otherwise. On another note, the Reverso chronograph dial reminds me of FP Journe's dial. Great minds think alike!

Grazie a tutti.

Io potrei anche scrivere un articolo sul Reverso Geographique: io so che piace ad amanico. Thank you all ! I could also write an article on the Reverso Geographique: I know that amanico likes it.

Great sharing!

L'orologio è stato appena revisionato. The watch has just been serviced. ...

This watch is one of the real classics of the 1990s, a watch that brings back fond memories of my early days discovering fine watchmaking. It continues to age very well and I have yet to see JLC surpass this combination of compact size and technique.
