Hi Everybody, I'm Andrea from Italy. I would like to introduce my new jlc purchase... a great Reverso Gran' Sport Chronographe
I simply admire this watch and all the studies which led to this masterpiece which, in my opinion, has nothing to envy to any PP or AP (with regard to the normal production, not to the pluricomplicated watches, of course).
Here are some pictures I hope you'll enjoy ;-)
First of all, Welcome here!
I always admired this Reverso, for its movement, and for its look.
The decoration of the dial is superb, on both sides.
And it is much more original than any other round Chrono, too.
So, huge congratulations on this piece.
Looking forward to hearing more from you,
Best.

You have picked up a fine watch. The Gran Sport Chrono is an underrated watch even among JLC enthusiats, but it is a fine piece with an awesome, although also higly underrated movement inside. For me, it is, in fact, the movement that makes this watch so special. It shares what is essentially the same cal 829 movement as was in the anniversary rose gold Reverso Retrograde Chronograph, but now the slightly modified cal. 859 is cased in a sporty Reverso. It is a rare rectangular chronograph movement with interesting additional complications all presented in a very small and thin movement. Just amazing!
Enjoy your new JLC. It is a great one.
