This model was in the catalogue for a few years.... Around 3 years, if my memory serves me well. XGT case, 8 Days manual movement, Night and Day indicator + Moonphase, here are the mzin characteristics and functions of this Watch. Add a diffrerent treatme...  

I HEAVILY lament the removal...

of the XGT cases and the 8-day movements. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the 50-turn-of-the-crown 8-day Reversos, especially the Grande GMT. There ARE those who like a thinner watch, and for them the Duo is fine and the GT cases are great. HOWEVER, the XGT cases are ... 

I concur. The 8 Days movement was a great one, in the Reverso line.

I must say that some of these watches were great, such as the Septantième, the first of the series. Best, Nicolas.

This is a watch, I have sadly missed.. Only saw & tried it once.. Curse of hesitation ;))

.. Indeed, this is one of my most regretted misses, as I did have the option once, at a time, when it still was in the catalog. Loved the Recto & the verso side, having a 8 days PR in a manual movement. However, at that time I had more going for the Rever... 

That is a stunning watch! :)

Even if I have one from the XGT case series and really like several from that line.... My wrist never really get used to the case size. :( Thank you for these stunning shots, my friend. Best Blomman

Sorry, no...

...it is a beautifully finished and artful piece!

By the way Nicolas, great photos! They convey the amazing details. One question,

Is this watch as stunning in steel as in gold? It's really hard to imagine anything better than what you posted here. And I think the gold stars and moon really play on the gold case. Like you I prefer white metals, but I think I'd want the gold in this o... 

Colder, in steel. A matter of taste, I guess.

The addition of stars on the movement was pretty well seen, I must say.... Best, Nicolas

Hi Amanico, it is one of my watches favorite, and his winding up is so soft. Best nino

Feel free to post pics of yours. And to share your passion with us, here. Ciao! Nicolas

What do I think? I think I still love it today like the first day it came out.

Mine is in stainless steel though, as you know. Come to think of it, I should wear it again now for the upcoming holidays. It has been maybe four months since I last wore it. Ruckdee

Give it a second chance, and some wrist time. Then you will know.

Never too good when we don't wear watches for a long time... Best, my friend. Nicolas

Sir, yes sir! [nt]
