It is THE ONE to get!

I mean a Reverso.

And so many models were made that it won't be difficult for you to find YOUR Reverso.

This watch is pure genius.

Best, my friend.

It is more something I kept under my sleeve...



When I put it aside with my Memovox, or Geophysic, or better, the 3 together, I think we're touching the basics, the fundamentals of Elegant Watchmaking...

Best, my friend.

. . . the overall size and proportions of the original Reverso are my cuppa tea. As much as I admire the current crop of Reversos, there's something very special about the first generation. Congratulations on acquiring a truly timeless design . . . cordially, Art

These first Reversos are amazing.

Small, but Harmonious, elegant, and to sum it, PERFECT.

Some of the modern are great, too.

Best of both worlds?

An original, and a modern!



Best,

Truly timeless watches, classical and serene, but full of character, not even slightly boring!

If there was only a way to see it in person...

Thanks for making this awesome work. Your "Quick Views·" are always a pleasure ))

I love a lot these vintage Reversos. I must say that, for me, are really difficult watches to wear because its size but, at the same time, I must admit that are one of the most beautiful watches ever made.

When I see and admire them I feel a strong feeling... Harmony, Beauty, Soul.... Peace.

It´s what I feel with these vintage Reversos....

The Perfect watch, and you, as always, hunt the best of the best of every watch.

Best and thanks again my dear Hermano.

Hope see you soon!

You may be convinced...



Let me know when you come!

I really think that the big second hand is perfect in the Reverso context.

And I recently found a Reverso without seconds, but with a brown dial...

Tepting...So tempting!



Best, my friend.

...or more elegant.  In the photo showcasing your black-dialed vintage piece with the Reverso GT, the vintage wins in the aesthetics department IMO hands-down.  That's not to say that the GT isn't handsome, because it most certainly is, but the vintage's size and charming dial make it the winner between the two.  Of course, the 70eme is the ne plus ultra for me in terms of Reversos now.    I like the white-dialed vintage example you shared, as well.  I wouldn't be able to choose a favorite between the two.  Wearing the black or white versions would be entirely mood-based for me.  That's why TWO is always better than one!

Thanks for the wonderful pictorial comparison, and post celebrating this iconic model.

Cheers,

Are splendid Rectangular examples, indeed.

The 60eme and 70eme are a kind of Hommage to the original, which is a particularly difficult exercize.

This certainly is a superb thema of Collection...



Best,

Nicolas

Very nice report on a very nice model. Congrats on your choice!

That's the fun of a GMT, you get both the white and black dial. Only the central seconds isn't there. I have to make the hard choice every day ;-)

That's the fun and the Beauty of your Reverso, my friend, to be able to choose between the 2 dials!

Thanks for your nice comments.

Was good to meet you last week.

Best,

Nicolas
