    Couldn’t agree more, had to watch the video several times. Mind blowing how much they can fit into such a small space.

    The reverso is one of the greatest steel sports watches!

    At the origin the Reverso was the G Shock of its time :D

    It’s technically a sports watch in its basic 1 sided flavor.

    as for Iconic SS sports JLC’s... Memovox...

    The dead sexy Deep Sea...

    Deep Sea Alarm...

    Master Marine...

    It certainly is a sports watch....Albeit a "gentleman's" sport watch. Just because it is elegant and beautiful ti does not take away from the basic function of the reverso. Turn it around and it's a sport's bracelet.

    It is not a matter of taste or looks but function, and this is a watch (not this one but the reverso model) made for a specific function. Polo and contact sports.

    Just the comments in the Hodinkee article indicate a branding challenge for JLC. Not as dire as GP but serious. I think however that with the new team, we will see some interesting moves. Reviewing the line, I’m dismayed that the true seconds is gone.

    So is the Deep Sea. Which was gorgeous at a insanely decent price.

    At least the master TDMP is around at 11k and the Master date at 6.7k usd.

    the master ultra thin has to be the most bang for your buck dress watch on the planet at 7.9k (Swiss mid to high end category) add 2k for a gorgeous moon phase.
    A 21k perpetual cal ultra thin? That’s a bargain for what you get.

    White gold TDMP perpetual at 35,700... beat that PP.

    I always forget how great JLC’s really are.

    now to find the perfect Atmos...
