Quality issue?

May 25, 2022,12:39 PM
 

I don't know if I am too picky or what I can expect from JLC nowadays.

So please let me ask you guys what you think:

The rails inside the (outer) case seem to be somehow not parallel to the case.
This leads to the outer case sticking out on the top left and on the bottom right.
One can clearly feel it with a finger/thumb while fondling the watch.
But only at the top left and bottom right. The top right and bottom left transition between the inner and outer case is perfectly smooth.
Please have a look at the attached picture where this clearly can be seen?

Do you think I should contact JLC about this or is this just normal with such a complex case/mechnism?
My vintage Reverso is perfectly smooth but it is about 30y old and white gold - so clearly does not have any sharp edges anymore. smile

Thank you

That’s the medium sized duoface. I paired it with a grained calf strap for a more vintage look. ...  

Thank you :)

Actually my wrist isn't that small

Almost 7". And I am very happy that this medium sized Reversos are still around as I find most of the other ones too large for my taste.

Thank you

Already have a vintage white gold Reverso from the 90ies. So the membership already started some time ago

Bravo and congrats! An icon you just got! 😁

I also love the strap choice you made

Grained calf strap work well with the reverso

and that is surely as beautiful of a timepiece to begin your 'journey' here as it gets. An all-time icon of horology. Cheers, Filip
