JLC Reverso Gyrotourbillon 2  0 Comments

Published Sunday, July 20, 2008 by Harry SK Tan |

 



At the JLC 175th Anniversary exhibition of their historical collection, one watch stands out for me is the new Gyrotourbillon 2 which is the double plane tourbillon cage first seen on the Gyro 1 now in a Reverso case. While the Reverso Gyro 2 is somewhat large, it is discernably smaller than it older sibling, the Gyro 1. Unfortunately while thee tourbillon cage can clearly be seen and appreciated, the small skeleton dial of the watch dial makes reading time on the watch somewhat difficult. However, there is a growing trend in the watch industry that for some reason, telling time is of secondary concern for wanting such high end pieces.
Listing at over S$600k, this watch is reserved for the a very small group of collectors.
The image below shows how the watch sits on the wrist.
