The Reverso Ultra Thin is a superb watch.

Personally, I prefer the TT 1931, and the red dial is a jewel.

But it is just my personal preference, and I would certainly not say that I don't like it.

Buying from a Boutique has an inconvenient: You won't have a price.

But you will have a strong connection with the brand, through the Boutique, and you will have some privileges, such as a visit of the manufature, invitations to some events...

If you really want a price, which is understable, try the second hand market.

I would say that for a special watch, or for a sentimental purchase, the Boutique is the way to go.

For other purposes, the ADs or the second market is a good option.

Best,

Nicolas

Thanks guys! I’m still on the hunt for the Reverso. I haven't had a chance to research it properly, work seems to be taking over my life! :-( It’s the first time I’m buying a watch for myself, and spending this much money a timepiece so I want to make sur...

So you could contact them, and you will surely get one. The question is when, but it is worth the wait. As for the strap, I feel a black croc is the surest choice. With or without stitching, it is up to you, as well as, why not, a calf strap... Best, Nico...
