Jaeger-LeCoultre

Nico was right...I'm extremely happy

 

This little gem has swept away my desire for Rolex steel sport....at least at these times when the price is really abnormal. The Reverso classic medium small second is perfect example of sporty dress man's watch done right... sharp lines but beautifully proportioned, dressy but not blingy. Oozes class and understated elegance. My only small regret is that I wish i got the duoface version, so it may comes handy when travelling to different timezone. But then again, I very seldom travel now, and the added case thickness of the duoface maybe not worth it. And I bought this at a very tempting discount that is impossible to resist.



I have feeling that this may not be my only reverso in the future smile





Happy weekend smile

But you might consider carefully if you want the monoface or duoface . Anyhow, the price of reverso feels like bargain compared to some overhyped watches now.

Thank you Nico. It was you who convinced me.

And it was you to be blamed for starting my desire for next reverso

You should not regret the duoface

I tried this one at the airport last week and found the proportions spot on! Good choice

Thanks Vinnie. The duoface is useful and

The proportion still OK. However I was thinking if I really need the dual time feature, as I don't travel as many as before, wonder if I should spend USD 2K more . So I got the monoface.

I'm thinking of have it engraved. But...

There is no JLC boutique in my country, only an AD, which handles so many brands that I'm afraid engraving it will take long time. Anyway I have not decide about what to engrave Maybe I will engrave it before pass the watch to my daughter when she graduat... 

Nothing says CLASSIC reverso

I have to say, you made the right choice. “Understated elegance” is the right term. In my opinion, even though it looks formal, you will also find it’s casual at the same time. I would also recommend personalizing the piece through engraving at JLC boutiq... 

Absolutely right. I have worn it with short sleeve shirt and Jeans, it looks as fabulous...

As wearing it with suite. A very versatile watch. Too bad the wet environment is not it's friend.

I have the Grande Taille

Which I believe is exactly the dimension of the current Medium. I had it for a pretty good discount and remains the only brand new watch I still have in the past 5 years. Right now I'm considering engraving the back and make it forever mine.
