It's Definitely Green . . .

Took a bit for it to get to me from London but glad it's finally here. Nothing disappointing thankfully. Number 21 of 26, the last one to be reserved via a phone call on a whim to the London Boutique a few months ago. I owe the sales associate who helped me get this to Honolulu a big time favor. Hopefully he will be able to visit my stomping grounds in the not too distant future so I can fully extend my appreciation. So I'm a Reverso fiend, having sampled a few so far - never connected long term with the Rouge or the Duoface Bleu but this Greeenie, along with my Black dialed Tribute and White dialed UT will hold me for awhile (hopefully) . . .

Not everyone liked the green but I couldn't resist. For those who agree, hope you enjoy my pics . . .

Wow, that's beautiful! I had seen that on the web, but with such a limited number of pieces I didn't think I'd ever see one. Congrats on picking it up! You have a great collection of Reversos there, sir.

Congratulations! Beautiful watch. I don't believe that there is any other color Reverso dial left for you to buy.

Oh! I forgot chocolate, but then I guess it must not appeal to you or you would have already purchased it.

Thx for kind words guys!

cfracing - the chocolate seemed a bit too dressy for my casual lifestyle and attire though when I tried it on it did look damn nice. Who knows, we'll see I guess . . .
