Just as an FYI, pics do not do these watches justice. You kinda have to see them in the flesh and yes they do have that Panerai thing where you either get it or you dont!!

I must say, I do get,very much so :D

Nothing like holding that hand finished and decorated case and flippin' :D

I definitely get the JLC thing, and I did look at a reverso a while back, but largely for novelty value. The thing that puts me off is not so much the flipping, more the shape - I just can't get into rectangular watches.

Now a Master World Geographic would be a different story (man, I need to start limiting my choices!!)

If it where the mechanical version I would have immediately bought it for the store for that price. But the quarz is hardly sellable.

I did not even realise they made Quartz watches!!!!!!

I thought JLC only made mechanical movements!!! What a shame :(

Sudenely that watch does not seem as such a good deal at all. I love JLC because of their movements, not just the finish.

I think I am just going to stick to Omega Railmaster as my new dress watch untill a Grande GMT shows itself at a decent price.
