Jaeger-LeCoultre

First of all a very happy new year to all the fellow collectors around the world! As many of you I (almost) certainly have way too many watches in my collection yet I decided to start the year with another gift for myself: a Grande Reverso Ultra Thin 1931...  

The chocolate evokes the vintage feel of a time past. An JLC is doing great work on the strap to keep it historical rich and luxurious but sporty at the same time. Thank you for a great review and enjoy the watch in great health. Bill

That there is something special in the luxurious - sporty combination and this particular model is an excellent example - great idea to have a custom strap that is really special and makes a difference!

Nice review and Happy New Year to you christianch! -MW

Your journey which drove you to go fir the G.R.U.T Chocolate. It is always god to know what drove you to go for a certain Watch. The second part of your nicely written article is the name on the dial. JLC Watches which don't have the name of the company o... 

Interesting! In this case I think the original inspiration in steel with the chocolate dial did have the name and in a different position

Like on the original. I find it nicer like this. But not a big deal, IMO. Best, Nicolas

Off topic can you tell me which JLC you own ? I saw the photos of your gorgeous platinum one but I would like to know more :)

Let's say that I own several JLCs... Reverso Septantieme, Master Minute Repeater, TT DSA US, Amvox II, and a few Vnitage, among others. ;) Best, Nicolas.

Pièces which I love a lot, by the way, for what they represent / mean to me. Best, Nicolas

.. BTW: can confirm the superb quality of the Fagliano strap; have applied it to my TT Reverso 1931, which resulted in a very nice combo, as well. But your RG has elegance & nice presence. Wear her in the Best of your health !! The elder cousin sends gree...  

Is truly gorgeous too and fits well with the la fagliano strap that is indeed very unique and comfortable. Very good idea from JLC - I do love this subtle innovation and re-issue of some reinterpreted iconic pieces in their extensive historical collection... 

Very happy you joined our jlc and Reverso gang! :) The chocolate dial and rose gold case combo is to die for. Looks fabulous on you! May your new chocolate Reverso always give you lots of joy when you wear it! Thanks for sharing with us :) Cheers Robin

Grande Reverso Ultra Thin 1948 - it really fits very well on your wrist. The other Blue JLC is also stunning! Love the size and how light the watch is!

Agree those Reversos are so enjoyable on our wrists Cheers Robin
