Looks great, what size is your wrist?

That’s an old topic to dig up. Coincidentally I recently got this exact same watch:



For me the perfect Reverso! Medium size, Duoface, Tribute dial, all what I have been looking for since years.

I agree, it’s perfect. I’m trying to confirm that it won’t be too small (I don’t think it will, but want to make sure the best I can). My wrist is 7 inches, my daily wearer is a datejust 36 and my dress watch is a JLC reserve de marche (blue, 39mm).

What size is your wrist?

Don’t order any Reverso without trying them on. Quoting myself from 2020.

Let’s be honest it’s a Reverso, there just isn’t a wrong answer here, whichever one pull at you hardest then it’s the one. I have giant wrists so everytime I try on a Reverso it just looks wrong on me but you can’t deny the beauty of them.

Of course, I would love to try it on - but that is almost impossible for this model. The closest I likely can get is finding a Q2458422 (Classic Duoface), which also uses a 42.9 x 25.5mm case.

Medium will be hard to find. NY boutique told me it is a waitlist piece now. Try on a mono face medium, those are out there. I found it to be too small on my 7”.

Tried on the medium Duoface in NY today (they restocked yesterday). It was too small. I thought the Tribute Duoface Small Seconds was going to be too big, but it fit great and was really nice. Now I have some thinking to do.

Awesome. Did you get the Fagliano strap made, or is the standard one from JLC? I’ve tried both, and like them both for very different reasons. The made-to-order Fagliano straps are a bit thicker, and feel like a hand made strap.

I felt that the med was too small for me as well. The grande, or calendar was too big. The large was a perfect fit.

I had the same dilemma on choosing between the tribute and classic. I went with the classic duoface since I felt it was easier to dress down.

Those dials look amazing. Love the texture.
