Squadra is very contemporary...
Gideon,
I know a few Squadra owners, from Chronographs to GMT to the monsterous rose gold chrono on a bracelet....everyone is very happy with them all. The history of JLC's Reverso with the larger modern case without sacrificing any of the thorough workmanship that goes into the case & swivel. My friends who have yet to purchase a watch of horological distinction still gape at my Grand Date.
As with Nicholas, I too know of World Time Chronograph (the late delivery is to blame but JLC in the UK have still been advertising this piece heavily recently despite it being an older version & of limited production) that is available, I think it requires the right person to enjoy this watch fully.
All the best,
Young

I like that a lot! I am not popeye by any means regarding wrist and forearm size, but I also like the feel and look of a larger piece. I don't think they had that model in person when I tried on the hometime. I assume it is a bit bigger than the hometime?...
Limited edition?

Well I'll keep my eyes open for that one, but I think I like the simplicity of the hometime the best. I initially thought I only wanted the white face, but now having looked around I think i am open to the black one as well. I wonder if anyone has one and...
Yes, LE,

And even if this is a LE of 1500 pieces, they are quite rare to find, because JLC didn't delver all of them, AFAIK. I still saw one in Paris a few weeks ago. And I know where to find one, too. Good hunt! Nicolas
Me too

I just got my first JCL. I have been lusting for one for a while. Today I received a Reverso Grande GMT. What a neat piece and what amazing craftsmanship. I own a GO, Rolex and BP and love them all, but JLC is just so eccentric and neat. I will post some ...
