You should find this reassuring ...
Hi Pavel,
Click here to link to a post I did on the performance of the Cal 875 Grand Date a while back . This particular Reverso performed very well as you can see.
My wife's Reverso Memory has been in continuous use for more than 5 years and is consistently within 5 seconds per day.
As they say about aged wines: "there are no great vintages, only great bottles", your experience with an individual watch may vary, but the general comments I hear about Reverso's are very reassuring.

Reliability/accuracy of Reverso mechanisms
Hello everyone from Moscow, Russia! My first post here! I know I may sound silly yet the question I have is this - how accurate and reliable are JLC mechanisms in general and REVERSOs in particular? I have a watch in mind that I think of buying (caliber 8...
Welcome here first. Some answers...
These movements housed in the Reversos are not known to be problematic. They keep time under 10 secs per day, easily, and JLC is able to service them, as they also service Vintage watches, so they can do the same in a modern one. no problems here. If you ...
The day/date is one of my favorite Reversos...
and, usually, JLC times them to be within 10 sec/day. Since 2003/4, all Reversos undergo the 1000 hours control test, which stipulates timekeeping accuracy within -1/+6 sec/day. -Dean
Thanks, Dean!
I think the face of the day/date could be more refined though, yet at the same time I like it's simplicity!!!
I owned two reverso and I find that the movements are
relaible and accurate. Hope it helps! Baxter

My two Reverso watches are +8 secs and +0.5 sec per day.
The +8 secs one was like +5 secs out of the box five years ago. It has been fairly consistent since in terms of accuracy and performance. I am not very particular about accuracy but I would not tolerate anything beyond +/-10 secs anyway. If your AD happen...
No problem with accuracy
Welcome Pavel! I have some Reverso’s – never any problem with accuracy! Best Blomman...
Accuracy Reverso GD
Hello Pavel: At first, my reverso Grande date used to delay about 13 seconds per day. After six months I was able to know how the watch should sleep every nigaht in order to avoid it delayed. I realized that when it sleeped with dial down, the watch worke...

...in excess of the above posters, I would venture that any JLC watch since at least the 1920s ought to be capable of keeping time within 15 sec./day, provided it is in good repair. Our household has 4 Reversos with varying complications, all excellent in...
