Title: Wife's Birthday + Abit of Impulse = Happiness
Post by: foowy on January 22, 2013, 08:49:06 AM

Its my wife's birthday today and the past weeks of searching for a gift included options like the usual perfume, sunglasses from Tom Ford, a working suitcase from Rimowa and then finally on an impulse yesterday....it was this one.

A pre-owned Reverso Shadow Classic from the 90s
Offered to me at the price I wanted, the temptation was too strong to say no. Out came the credit card.

And now we have a Duo of Reversos

Thanks Terrence.

JLC reversos dont come up often on the pre-own market.

Many dealers actually don't like to carry the "lesser known" brands like JLC, as it takes a longer time to sell (unless they bump into JLC fans like me). But I suspect they take it only because they get it at a really low price.

I think pre-own JLCs offer the best value for money watch pleasure. Hope you get to find yours soon.
