EWC

Thanks for your input, totally agreed, the EWC is excellent for sporting activities, the lockdown mechanism on the chrono buttons & main button are faultless, the best of its kind, simple & direct. I've tried the Squadra & the size is fine for me. My only concern is in the waterproofing side.

Thanks,

Ian

Hi to all, I have been a JLC brand fan for a long time, once owned Reverso Tourbillon, Reverso Dual time & Geographic. Currently owned Grand Reverso 976, AMVOX 2, and Master Compressor Extreme World Chronograph. Recently I came across the beautifully craf... 

I would stick with the EWC

That Reverso is a beauty for sure, but I don't think it surpasses the EWC in any way. They are very similr watches in many ways, and they both have the cal. 75X family of chrono movements inside, which is a very good thing. The EWC will give you the versa...

The 2 watches are "2 sides of the same coin," if you will. I love both, but the Squadra is NOT a water watch. It can take the accidental plunge, but it's not designed for "prolonged water use." That said, the Reverso Squadra World Chrono is an amazing mov...

I can’t advice you on the two you are asking about since I have no personal experience of them. But I can offer you a couple of snaps on the Reverso… Best Blomman...  

Though there is a big difference on the WT presentation.

Or should I say Expression... I much prefer the verso dial of the Squadra WT than its recto side... The other roblem with the Squadra is that it is a big ( very big ) and very thick watch. Some wrists should be able to wear it, I'd say that a vast majorit...

Is the Squadra Hometime any different in size, or are all Squadra's the same size? --Sancerre

Squadra Big & Thick

The Squadra World Chronograph is the biggest & thickest watch on the line. For someone who like big, bold watches, then this is the one for you. After receiving so many comments, the reason I went for the EWC is because I get to see the world time at a gl...
