JLC Reverso?

I thought I saw JLC Reverso comes in 2 sizes, one's more classic / regular, and the other bigger and more "modern size".

Do they come in 2 sizes? How do they measure? Which are the ones that's classic size and which are the ones with "modern" size?

Nowadays the Reverso comes in different shapes and sizes, you can see a few different rectangular models as well as different sizes of the Squadra version, a more square-ish watch. I am not going to bet on this one but I believe that there are more than two different sizes in the rectangular ones.

The newer Ultra-Thin Reversos fit me best. If they come out with one that has a date in the next few years I will be all over it.

I had a Reverso Grande Date in the XL size that was a great watch buta little too thick (due to the extra barrel required for the 8 day power reserve) & never wore quite right. There are smaller standard size Reversos as well.

Hi,

As others have stated, there are many different sizes and types of Reverso, so many that I'm sure you'll find one that's perfect for you.

By way of giving you an idea of what the smallest gent's Reverso looks like, here's a wrist-shot of my Reverso Classique.
