La Vie en Rouge
As usual, I am late to the party.
I had been hoping to get one of these for quite a while. The Tribute to 1931 Reverso in all of its variants has appealed to me strongly since the original launch, but the Rouge emerged as the one that speaks the most to me and adds something very interesting to my collection. I am happy that the Rouge seems to have gained some popularity among the Purists.
Maybe some of you other Rouge fans will post photos of yours...
Cheers,
respo

Congratulations Respo! Never too late...
... to arrive to this Red Fiesta! Here I answer to your call. Mine bought in 2011 at the Milano Boutique and photographed at Portofino... Enjoy yours in good health! Cordial regards, Abel. ...
Thanks, Abel
I like the background for your Rouge much better! Beautiful shot! I recently reread a post you made about getting your Rouge, and it was inspirational as I was deciding on mine. So, thank you for the encouragement! Best, respo
Thank you so much Respo! So glad to know I could...
... contribute with adding a little fire to your desire to own this beautifuly unique watch! Enjoy it so much! Abel.
Huge congratulations, Respo. That is such a cool watch!
I remember the first reactions when the Rouge was unveiled. Strong, undisputably. Some loved it at first sight, others hated it, at first time, too. No indifference, though. Huge congratulations, Respo. This is a Watch made for you! Best, Nicolas PS: A Re...
Thanks, Vlado Red!
I appreciate your kind words. I agree, there is little indifference to the Rouge. I am glad you think it is a watch made for me. :-) Your photos of the Rouge, especially from your "test drive" post were also inspirational to me in my decision. Thank you! ...
Awesome shots my dear friend! Just awesome! They make...
... mouth watering even to those who already own this watch! Superb! That little big detail of a red handle cup kills me! Un abrazo fuerte! Abel.
You have the blue, you have the white.... You need THE Red.
And you know I am right... ;) Best, Nicolas
Then I will have the French and American flag colors!
Come to think of it... The Red and my White makes the colors of my Singapore flag lol. Arghhhh I still need that Rouge! Cheers Robin
Aaahh !.. One of my 2 fav Reverso pics from you !.. The red handle is "IT" !!
.. BTW: the other fav is your Vintage-R Central Second on Piazza San Marco on top of a nice Espresso ( Macchiato, I think) Liked these shots a lot ! Best, hs
Fantastic addition to your collection
It looks fab with Those cuff links too! A detail you never mentioned before! Enjoy in the best of health! Here's mine saying hi Hagwe Joe ...
Nice shot, Joe!
Didn't I mention those cuff links? ;-) Well, you pushed me over the edge on this one, so the blame falls largely on you. Do you recall that I tried the Rouge on at the watch show in Philly in September 2013? And then subsequently you have shown me yours, ...
Fantastic! Very happy for you Respo!
Indeed the Rouge does add a bit of "spice" to your fantastic collection! It looks great on you with that white shirt and matching cufflinks :) I don't have the rouge yet and seeing your pic does tempt me to attempt to order one (no stocks here in Singapor...
Thanks, Robin
Yes, it does add some spice to the collection. :-) You might want to get one sooner rather than later. I think Vlad confirmed for us that production ended on this one in 2013. So, a short lived Reverso is the Rouge. Thanks for the kind words, always. Best...
Congrats Respo...
it certainly adds a bit of spice to the collection! When you come to think about it, how many red dial watches in good taste are there out there? Can't think of one. cheers fernando
I agree
I was trying to thin of any other red dial watch I could wear, and could not come up with one other than the Rouge. I love that this watch sports a red dial but remains so elegant and refined. Thank you. respo
Congratulation, my friend! :)
It was about time you joined us with the red, Respo! ;) It is such a wonderful dandy watch! :) Best Blomman
Thanks, Blomman
Yes, it was about time. But I typically arrive late to the party, so not surprising for me. Thank you, my friend. respo
mine says hi...
Congrats! better late than never, especially with this great piece. Mine says hi ... from homeland. ...
Oh, and with that white strap
The Rouge looks fantastic. Great photos! Thanks for the kind words. respo
Congrats respo!
Congrats on the Rogue, plus the cufflinks are cool too! Wear it in the best of health my friend!!! -MW
Great minds think alike.
LOL. More accurate I think is that I just follow your lead, sir. What a lovely shot of your Rouge, by the way. Best, respo
I have more!
I think we share so many....and from watches that we bought before we even knew each other had them!! I guess it is not surprising....if a certain taste appeals, then only certain watches and manufacturers are involved.
