Thank you for this marvelous preview!
By: BluNotte : October 26th, 2011-02:17
I find myself gravitating towards this piece very much, especially the SS version! So, let me clarify this, but this is available ONLY in the boutiques in Mexico and the US, and not in the asian boutiques? Cheers! Stephen
Some additional information regarding availability
By: ED209 : October 26th, 2011-19:03
Hi BluNotte, Both pieces are really nice and to me it looks totally different in each metal. These are available via the JLC Boutiques only, however in the United States the JLC Beverly Hills Boutique is the only place to purchase one. Thanks for reading ...
I see, thanks for the info!

And it is i who must thank you for writing up such a beautiful and delightful post! It's not everyday that we get art on the wrist watches! Cheers Stephen

I knew you'd like it!

Hi Gabriel, Thanks for the compliments, glad to hear you enjoyed the interview and DRMW did a really nice job with the pics. Which one do you like better, the SS or the RG version? Regards, ED-209
Ed, I am torn in between both to be honest
By: Mr.Gatsby : October 27th, 2011-04:49
Have not seen them in the flesh, but if these pictures are true to my eyes, then I must say the rose gold version caught my eye initially because of how warm the dial looked as encased by the rose gold case. The etchings on its caseback exudes a sense of ...
well said Mr. Gatsby
By: DRMW : October 26th, 2011-20:17
It was fascinating to hear the story straight from Guillermo Cenecieros Jr. on how this came to be and for sharing the details of his father's work. Congrats to Maestro Ceniceros and the JLC boutique in Mexico City! -MW
Thank you Dr. Woo :- )
By: Mr.Gatsby : October 27th, 2011-04:52
Gotta agree with you.....great to have heard the story straight from my amigo, Guillermo. And that Milan, such a class act !!

This article is much better, much more interesting than any Press File.
By: amanico : October 26th, 2011-01:35
I will try to stay objective, which is difficult for me, as Guille and Milan are old friends. Honestly, the Reverso 976 was a nice watch, the " 976 Ceniceros " is a very nice watch. I was not really impressed by the sapphire case back of the 976, when it ...
Congrats to JLC and the Ceniceros family
By: ED209 : October 26th, 2011-19:09
Hi Nicholas, I absolutely agree with you that this was a great collaboration and nicely done. I like both versions but if I had to choose I'd go for the RG version because I like the artwork. Regards, ED-209
Fantastic post, respect!
By: Asimut : October 26th, 2011-02:49
I think the concept of a collaboration between a distinguished artist and JLC is successful when there is a true meaning and passion that connects the actual artwork with the idea of the timepiece. This being the case here, I salute and congratulate the r...
Thanks Asimut

Thanks for reading this report and for your comments. Which version do you like better? Regards, ED-209
I tried to walk around that one
By: Asimut : October 27th, 2011-04:14
but in all fairness, I'm not a huge Reverso fan and the ones I do like cost like a small island ;-) Best Asi

Agree with you 100%, JLC has been hitting homeruns this season. It's great to see such an inspiring collaboration that has a deep meaning behind it. -MW

Hello mirador! One of the highlights of the Ceniceros edition was that Guillermo jr. was particular of the shade of the lume color. They wanted the color to be cohesive with the enamel and engraving and with the vintage look pay tribute to the past 80 yea...

Thanks for your time Guillermo for providing the details and background. I've enjoyed learning about how this project developed and really happy to see the final results. Regards, ED-209
You want to laugh?
By: amanico : October 27th, 2011-22:27
I heard a few months ago that such a project was in the pipeline... I've been told that a certain Guillermo Ceniceros was working on a special Reverso... Ceniceros, that was a name which sounded familiar to my ears... After a while, I was focusing my gues...
