Tried on the Reverso Tribute Chronograph today
I am in Seoul tnis week visiting my son. Today, we went to the very nice The Hyundai mall and visited the JLC Boutique there.
My son and I started by showing our credentials, on his wrist a Reverso Classique amd on mine a Reverso Grande GMT.
In the shop, they had the steel version of the newish Reverso Tribute Chronograph that I was allowed to try on.
My impressions: The face is beautiful and in line with the new generation of Reversos. The reverse side is very nice and well finished, but not that legible. Cool that it now shows the time versus the original 1996 version. But it is really not very legible. The lighting in the boutique was terrible as you can see on my photos - that may have reduced the overall legibility a bit.
The watch is quite big, making my Grande GMT look small. The tribute is clearly too tall for my wrist.
I have also brought my Chrono to Seoul. And I must say that I still prefer 1996 to 2023.
Thanks for looking,
Claus
