Wonderful Shots!!
Hi,
Congratulations on that beauty! I have a question, is the dial of the chocolate reverso also stamped? Meaning you can see the depth of the indices and the minute
tracks on the brown dial? I'm getting more curious with these two models of the TT1931 Reverso. So elegant and simple.
Thanks,
Edward
JLC Grande Reverso Tribute to 1948 - some macro shots to share
I have not shared this watch for awhile. This lovely watch was the one I bought when Nicolas was inSingapore, in the JLC boutique. Many of you know my love for its blued hands and indices. The watch seems to come to life and smile at you when the warm sun...
I agree to the little details of beauty on this one
Very nice work on a watch that doesn't shout out. Great pictures, Robin. The macros really show what JLC is about. Richard
The little details make me smile indeed Richard
Thank you and glad you like the details too :) cheers robin
Sublime macros. The first which really give an idea of the texture of the dial.
The dial is stamped, my friend. You just made me realize that I have to post my review on this Watch. I didn't post it yet, because there were too many topics ( which is totally justified, by the way ) about this one. So, I postponed... And forgot. ;) For...
Thanks for the info on the dial Nico!
Yes, I remember your upcoming review of this watch :) Was paving the way for you hehe. Consider mine the teaser post for your review. Looking forward to your review Nico! cheers robin
Very elegant watch
Hi Great shots - looks really elegant. But as you say it takes a closer look to fully appreciate the dial. The texture of the dial is great and a wonderful contrast to the crispness of the indexes. Cheers JML
Thank you JML
Glad you like the details of the dial. Agree on the contrast between the dial's texture vs the indices. Cheers robin
Thank you! I want to upgrade my skills still....
just using a simple macro lens now. Will want to learn more about watch photography - it's addictive! cheers robin
I totally share your excitement about this watch
It is indeed pure elegance and refinement, a superb mix of Reverso DNA and modernity. In one word, it is classy. Many thanks Robin for these superb macro shots. Well done my friend! Best, Mike
Thank you Mike, you are very kind :)
I appreciate your comments and am glad you enjoyed the pics :) Cheers robin
Very nice pics !
Some shots of mine. It's blue ! The texture of the dial. On a blue alligator strap. ...
Your taste for watches is impeccable domingo
But your pictures are also always superb and really show the beauty of your marvels. Unlike many others (including me often), you could never write that your pictures do not do justice to the beauty of your watch because you always manage to catch the bea...
You're making me blush
Many thanks for your nice comments. I take a lot of pics with my iPhone and less than 10 % is worth sharing. The quality through quantity... No, I'm not living with tonton, but yes, I love my old teck table. It always provides me a neutral and nice backgr...
Yes, the holidays are over
It was my first holyday place delivery. It's a better feeling than receiving the watch at the office. In a more serious context... ...
Yes indeed.
I think it's because of the high contrast between the dial and the hands. The lack of AR coating doesn't help either.
The true color of the hands and indexes is hard to catch, as well.
I had tough times to try to take some good pictures. Will post them in my dedicated review, one day. Best, Nicolas
I LOVE your shots Domingo!
Excellent photos! Thanks for sharing! Yes, like you, I am in love with this Reverso. Such a beauty! Let's share more with our friends here :) cheers robin
You're welcome.
Thank you for your great macros. I never noticed that the dial was stamped.
Wonderful shots!
I always had sharp and cool impression from 1948. Now, your beautiful Macro shots are giving me some kind of warm feeling. Such an elegant partner. Thank you very much for sharing, Robin. Best regards, T-suke
Thank you T-suke!
yes in general, the white metal, white dial and blued hands/indices made the watch "cooler" but to me, a Reverso always feel warm maybe due to the case/dial design too. Even without the macro shots, when the sunlight touches the dial, the blued hands and ...
Beautiful...
Fantastic macros, really highlights the depth and texture of the dial well. Thanks for sharing!
Looks like...
a "parchment" dial. The raised indices and the minute track are gorgeous! -Dean
I really love the raised indices and minute track
That was one of the key reasons why I fell in love with this one, other than the blued hands/indices/tracks. Glad you like them too! :) cheers robin

Welcome to PuristSPro Edward!
and on our JLC forum too! I am sure Nicolas will take good care of you here :) Glad you like the shots. The chocolate reverso is a very nice one indeed. Very warm looks with RG and brown dial. Nicolas has answered your query. Pls let us know if you need m...
Thank you Nicolas and Robin!
Oh, I wonder why they didn't make it a standard feature? I thinks it would be a real stunner if it were stamped. I saw this both in real at JLC boutique Hong Kong and honestly am torn between the two. Need to see more wrist shots. Would you classify this ...
The 1948 can be considered as more casual than other TT Reverso
I've got an another Reverso, the chronograph retrograde , and my feeling is that the 1948 as more casual, specially with a blue or a brown strap. I think it's due to the size of the case (very long) and the very light dial that makes it look bigger than r...
I would consider the TT R 1948, as it is more casual.
Still elegant. The TT DSA is also an excellent choice! Best, Nicolas
Thank you for the suggestions guys!
Guess I answered my own question. Since the 1948 is more casual, I needed a more formal watch based on my collection too. My question should've been "Can the chocolate be used as a casual watch too?" But with the dial color and Fagliano strap, I think it ...
