A tremendous honor
A tremendous honor to receive this coverage on the PuristSPro. Ming and Ed thank you so much for the interest in the project and for the insight to ask the questions that present a view that goes much farther than the release. Very thankful to you both specially for sharing in the enthusiasm that this Limited Edition is generating. Definitely the place to be here in the JLC forum with the added perspective of Nicolas whom I consider to be among the top experts in all matters JLC, a passionate collector and a friend with whom I have shared this great hobby of ours for years. I showed this post to my father and he is humbled as well enthusiastic about the interest.
Thank you Team PuristSPro!
Guillermo

Thank you for this marvelous preview!
I find myself gravitating towards this piece very much, especially the SS version! So, let me clarify this, but this is available ONLY in the boutiques in Mexico and the US, and not in the asian boutiques? Cheers! Stephen

I knew you'd like it!
Hi Gabriel, Thanks for the compliments, glad to hear you enjoyed the interview and DRMW did a really nice job with the pics. Which one do you like better, the SS or the RG version? Regards, ED-209
Ed, I am torn in between both to be honest
Have not seen them in the flesh, but if these pictures are true to my eyes, then I must say the rose gold version caught my eye initially because of how warm the dial looked as encased by the rose gold case. The etchings on its caseback exudes a sense of ...
well said Mr. Gatsby
It was fascinating to hear the story straight from Guillermo Cenecieros Jr. on how this came to be and for sharing the details of his father's work. Congrats to Maestro Ceniceros and the JLC boutique in Mexico City! -MW
Thank you Dr. Woo :- )
Gotta agree with you.....great to have heard the story straight from my amigo, Guillermo. And that Milan, such a class act !!

Hey ED-209

outstanding post by twin bros...
... thanks for such great report to make the watch standing out by very well written texts and well-captured photos. hope to see this beautiful watch soon. stefan
Thanks Stefan
Hi Stefan, Thanks for checking out the post and thanks for the compliments. Regards, ED-209
This article is much better, much more interesting than any Press File.
I will try to stay objective, which is difficult for me, as Guille and Milan are old friends. Honestly, the Reverso 976 was a nice watch, the " 976 Ceniceros " is a very nice watch. I was not really impressed by the sapphire case back of the 976, when it ...
Congrats to JLC and the Ceniceros family
Hi Nicholas, I absolutely agree with you that this was a great collaboration and nicely done. I like both versions but if I had to choose I'd go for the RG version because I like the artwork. Regards, ED-209
Fantastic post, respect!
I think the concept of a collaboration between a distinguished artist and JLC is successful when there is a true meaning and passion that connects the actual artwork with the idea of the timepiece. This being the case here, I salute and congratulate the r...
Thanks Asimut
Thanks for reading this report and for your comments. Which version do you like better? Regards, ED-209
I tried to walk around that one
but in all fairness, I'm not a huge Reverso fan and the ones I do like cost like a small island ;-) Best Asi
Fantastic
JLC keeps coming out with more and more watches that are (nearly) irresistible. Thanks for the great report. --Sancerre
re: Fantastic
Agree with you 100%, JLC has been hitting homeruns this season. It's great to see such an inspiring collaboration that has a deep meaning behind it. -MW
Wonderful collaboration
This partnership is just so right on many different levels, congratulations on JLC for being so visionary and creative, and special consideration must go to Maestro Ceniceros for his inspiring creativity, and being open to such a collaboration. And let's ...

Hello mirador! One of the highlights of the Ceniceros edition was that Guillermo jr. was particular of the shade of the lume color. They wanted the color to be cohesive with the enamel and engraving and with the vintage look pay tribute to the past 80 yea...

Thanks for your time Guillermo for providing the details and background. I've enjoyed learning about how this project developed and really happy to see the final results. Regards, ED-209
You want to laugh?
I heard a few months ago that such a project was in the pipeline... I've been told that a certain Guillermo Ceniceros was working on a special Reverso... Ceniceros, that was a name which sounded familiar to my ears... After a while, I was focusing my gues...
