I'll have to see how big my wrist is. I believe it's on the small side. That being said, I'd be fine wearing a 44mm Panerai. The thing is, Panerai and everyone who followed them into the big watch realm, they conditioned us to want the big watches.
976 is a bit thick compared to the ultra thins, but what seems too big for me is the length and width. The length spans my entire wrist if you include the lugs. However I do love the dial and decoration on my 976, so I'll keep it. If it was a plain 976, I'd prefer the grande taille or the new duo.
I like lightweight watches so yes, I'd prefer ultra thin for that. But that's just me. I know that many like the weight of a watch. As it is the thickness doesn't bother me.
As far as duo faces they're supercool but l usually prefer one side.
Jaeger Lecoultre Reverso Duo Automatic large case: Technical Drawing.
I posted this new Reverso, unveiled this year at the SIHH. What I didn't show you is the technical drawing of the case, which I received later. I am quite fond of these drawings, showing the structure and the complexity of the Reverso case. Enjoy. Nicolas...
Help needed...
Thanks for this...I am actually considering to purchase this model, problem is where I live I don't have AD so cant try the model and see if it fits in terms of size etc. Just a help call from other members as I am spending hours and hours on forums and d...
The proportions are good for your wrist. Now...
1/ I would always favor a manual winding Reverso. 2/ The thickness is ok, but I prefer when it is slightly thinner. Best, Nicolas
Thanks Nicolas
Would definitely need to see it in flesh before I make decision... Fully understand the point for manual one, would prefer it that way as well. Best, Uros
thanks, didnt look at this one as I think its discountinued (didnt see it on JLC site)...
Im afraid that at the end I will pull the trigger without even seeing the watch but...
Thanks for suggestion...was just looking this one these few days:)
By looking at the size it looks perfect, only negative is lack of Arabic numerals on main dial. For some reason I got fix on numbers dial. Its bit less formal I think and I would use it during day on work etc, ultra thin duoface very elegant I agree and d...
Hi Uros, there will probably be an adjustment in size, coming from royal oak and Panerai. What at first looks small may later look perfect. I have a 976, it seemed the right size when I got it but would now prefer a bit smaller. 976 is 48mm, manual
And Arabic. I agree that Arabic means versatility. 976 is 10.3 mm. If I was getting a white metal silver dial reverso with Arabic I would do a grande taille.
Thanks for this...
Out of curiosity what is your wrist size if you know? also when you say too large it was also too thick or not? Checked at JLC International site where they have included new Large duoface and thickness is also slightly above 10mm so interesting to hear y...

Thanks its a really beatiful piece!! You dont help my rationale side of the process...
Engraving at the back must be looking stunning as well btw not sure why did JLC discontinued models such as Grand Sun Moon, that piece with 8days reserve looks stunning... Back to my hunting I decided to park it a bit until I travel abroad which should be...
Yes it is THE watch for watch lovers...
Was dangerously close to get pink gold Chronometre but it was skeletonized which I ultimately didn't like (dial too busy). Price offered was very good but still.... And pink gold would be a second place, white gold/black dial and platinum absolutely gorge...
Thanks for sharing Nicolas!
I really admire the "no pusher" design! Automatic or not is a purist and connoisseur thing (well, I prefer manual ), but the lack of pusher is a great breakthrough for the Duoface! Best, E
Very cool, but I don't see the "trigger" to change the 2nd time...
or is it there and I am just missing it? -Dean
