JLC 2014 SIHH Pre View: Grande Reverso Ultra Thin 1931 " Chocolate ".

 
 By: amanico : December 6th, 2013-02:00
That is a Watch I couldn't see in the metal because it was several thousands kilometers away when I was at the Manufacture, but I can't resist to the pleasure to share with you, in avant premire, this beauty from the 2014 collection, one month before the...  

Seductive & warm

So you are becoming convinced in color gold :) There is only one thing I would prefer more to have Reverso written under 12 not above seconds subdial Thank you for news in advance Best Damjan

Funny what you said about the writing above the small seconds...

 
 By: amanico : December 6th, 2013-03:43
This is the first thing I noticed, too. I guess we are totally conditionned with Reverso dials, and that any small change in our aesthetical habits is disturbing us. ;) Well, it just lasted one minute. As for rose gold watches, I must say that sometimes, ... 

This Reverso is my definition of ...

 
 By: nilomis : December 6th, 2013-02:15
Elegance. Pure, non-bling, even the gold case show class, high class. Never had a gold watch but this one breaks this rule. Add to that, the mandatory (IMHO) running seconds. Finally the strap. To die for. Thank you for showing this one. Cheers, Nilo

Breaking our own non colored gold rules is a fne compliment for this watch.

Thanks for your input, my friend. All the best, Nicolas

I can t see the pics for some reasons but from the front page teaser ..

 
 By: moc : December 6th, 2013-02:21
and the thumbnails.......I might add another JLC to my collection:)...... Yes,Jlc is playing safe ...the formula is right,the hearts are won! They could release a new Reverso a year with all the colours of the rainbow and they will go like hotcakes! Caref... 

As for the strap...cordovan no no for me...

 
 By: moc : December 6th, 2013-02:26
Nor matt alligator...Glossy chocolate brown please,for elegance and a touch of vintage charm. Mo

Well, if you look at the book of the dials, they still hve a comfortable margin. ;)

 
 By: amanico : December 6th, 2013-13:48
But I agree, they can win with any of these dials. Though, this one is one of my favourite rose gold Reverso. Very appropriate. Thanks for your input, Mo. Nicolas

This combo is so fine.

 
 By: Mark in Paris : December 6th, 2013-03:10
I prefere that outfit much more than black/silver/white dials on white metal (I mean for the Reverso oc). It is warm, elegant and original. Perfect for casual week-end wearing. Thanks for sharing Nicolas. Cheers, Mark

Thanks for your input, Mark. Yes, I think this is a winning combo.

 
 By: amanico : December 6th, 2013-11:45
Even if I am still obsessed by the Blue and the Red... ;) Best, Nicolas

Great Shot !

 
 By: flamenco : December 6th, 2013-03:11
Nice watch ! Gold and chocolate ... Yummy !

Weell, Very seductive and tempting.. I will stay tuned for the 2014 news.. ;)

 
 By: hs111 : December 6th, 2013-03:14
Thx for your kind share, Best, your friend, hs :)

Very nice, thank you Nicolas. However.....

 
 By: Sandgroper : December 6th, 2013-03:20
for some reason, I much prefer the Original with white metal and the crown recessed, with the Cordovan strap it wouldn't be bad either:) Cheers Francois from Down Under

Seduced?

 
 By: respo : December 6th, 2013-05:45
Yes!

Tempted, then? :) [nt]

 
 By: amanico : December 6th, 2013-13:52

another blash from jlc 2014 SIHH...

 
 By: FanFrancisco : December 6th, 2013-06:38
.... wow... tasty really tasty dial... just can't wait to hear more details and also see it in metal soon. stefan

Still have to take some live pictures.

 
 By: amanico : December 6th, 2013-13:53
Sadly, it was not at the Manufacture, when I was there... Best, my dear Stefan. Nicolas

i know you are capable and resourceful...

 
 By: FanFrancisco : December 7th, 2013-09:05
... look forward to hearing more soon. stefan

Nicely done....

 
 By: Bobbe : December 6th, 2013-07:39
Good colour combination: you can not go wrong with rosé gold and chocolate brown, but as said above which colour-combination wouldn't sell? Thanks for sharing and nice to read there is an caliber 822/2. Didn't know that. So much to learn about JLC. Enjoy ... 

There is so much to learn with JLC.

 
 By: amanico : December 6th, 2013-13:54
You will see the 2014 collection, we'll have a lot to say and discuss! Best, Nicolas

No doubt

 
 By: Spellbound : December 6th, 2013-08:25
No doubt that this one will become a Purist favourite. The strap is gorgeous too. Not a Limited Edition but a Special Edition perhaps? Better start working hard to save up as my shopping list just got longer..... Dean

wow..that is puurddy...

 
 By: ocwatching : December 6th, 2013-11:11
nice new release..love the dial color with the RG.. great piece..great case size..nice release JLC any plans for WG or SS?

Damn! I am screwed...

 
 By: blomman Mr Blue : December 6th, 2013-12:06
If this goes on, I will end up with more Reverso than Memovox! ;) Love it! :) Best, my friend Blomman

Amen

 
 By: 4Js : December 6th, 2013-16:39
How many reversos can one own? I have three and this one is sooooo good too. Now, you sir are the king so how many reversos can you handle? As of late, what I really admire about JLC, is that they have such great offers at realistic pricing and fantastic ... 

The problem with the Reverso is...

 
 By: blomman Mr Blue : December 7th, 2013-06:42
That during the last 20 years JLC has released far more medels and versions of the Reverso that of the Memovox... So the one trying to pursuit the Reverso line... Wil be in BIG trouble! Best Blomman

Naaah. You still have a good margin for a tie match. :)))

 
 By: amanico : December 7th, 2013-02:44
But I can understand your enthusiasm. Best, my friend. Nicolas

LOL, not that big... ;) [nt]

 
 By: blomman Mr Blue : December 7th, 2013-06:43

Impossible! How many Memos you have? 30? 40?

 
 By: amanico : December 7th, 2013-07:48
You can't have almost the same number or Reversos, or you have big sleeves, you are Vishnoo, and you have hidden a lot of new catches to me! :) Best, Nicolas

No, KPK. No stainless steel version. I asked, they confirmed me that only in rose gold.

 
 By: amanico : December 7th, 2013-23:57
Which I find to be an excellent choice, even if colored gold is not my favourite metal. But in this case, with the Brown dial, I find it sublime. For white metal cases, you already have a big choice: TTR 31 Black, Red, Blue ( Duoface, in this case ), and ... 

Thanks Nicholas. This piece looks yummy. What is the

 
 By: kpk : December 11th, 2013-00:10
price? Also, does it have a transparent caseback?

No transparent case back, my friend. As for the price, it is not known, yet.

 
 By: amanico : December 11th, 2013-00:14
I asked, but it seems that nothing is definitive, as for the retail. Will keep you updated, of course. Best, Nicolas

very nice reborn ! [nt]

 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : January 2nd, 2014-06:37
Looks really yummy! And I just said in my PP 5146R annual review, I am going to slow down my watch acquisition in 2014 so I can appreciate the watches I bought in 2013 more dearly but I think I am going to struggle with all these yummy new releases and al... 

I thought the chocolate...

is the dessert! :) I can't have so many JLC courses! :P cheers robin

Being from a City famous for desserts.. Definitely I'll wait for that.. ;))

 
 By: hs111 : January 3rd, 2014-04:23
I guess, this would be a smart move, for this year, although I love sweets !.. But if true, that it's neither LE nor limited Production, there is no need for rushing, even in my country I hope, at least. Thanks again for this appetizer intro, Hmmm... Best... 

Superb quote, my friend. And curious coincidence that the JLC Boutique is

So close to Sacher Torte! ;) Best, Nicolas

Very nice watch, I like it.

Thanks. vte

Beautiful !

 
 By: dirost : April 10th, 2014-09:11
I tried a prototype at my wrist two days ago. Just great, harmonious, classy. And ordered it. It will make a good duo with the platinum Reverso reserve de craziest thing with Reverso is that a lot of them make you wear a totally different watch, even if ... 

Deployment Clasp / Boutique Editions

 
 By: J.Law : May 11th, 2014-02:57
Nicolas, I understand from your post that the watch won't come with a deployment clasp? Any possibility of buying the watch with one? Given the quality of the leather strap, it will be a pity if it wears out quickly. Also wondering if you know about any b... 

I am not sure you can order it with a folding buckle

 
 By: amanico : May 11th, 2014-03:22
Any AD will confirm you that, but I highly doubt, since the TTR 1931 in rose gold previously launched came with a pin buckle, too. Therefore, if it was possible to get a folding buckle, you would pay it so much that you would forget the option. There is o... 

Thanks!
