It's profane quarz

I'm glad I don't have to take it down to wind it up every week.
It's heavy, it's not easy to find the fixture behind the clock and you have to polish a bit afterwards.
Still, I do it twice a year to adjust for summer-/wintertime.

... and I can remember having seen some other funny ones like the huge Tissot watch (was it from Tokyo?) somewhere here, Daos. There was also a series of ancient town clocks displayed sometime. Best regards, anaesdoc

Does it have 2 faces? How does it look from the back? I would love one of these for my house, and wonder does JLC sell these? Goh
Identical backside, Goh,...

so it´s not a real Reverso, but more handy for a public clock! I have no idea whether they are for sale. Regards, anaesdoc
Reverso "Très Grande Taille"

I have one in my living room. Not that big, but still. About 17 x 12 inches and of quite solid material and heavy, maybe 8 lbs....
Amazing, Criollo!

So there must be a "reduced" or "midsize" version available somewhere. Is it mechanical ? Maybe Goh and Stefan should contact you for further advice. Best, anaesdoc
