Collector’s Insight

The Reverso is already an icon, but the Duoface makes the original reversible idea even more interesting. Instead of flipping the case over simply to protect the dial, you get another watch altogether — a classic silver dial on one side and a much more contemporary black dial on the other, complete with a second time zone.

Personally, I think that’s the charm of this reference. Depending on how you feel that day, you can completely change the character of the watch with one flip of the case. And at 25.5mm wide, the Medium proportions are elegant without feeling too small. It’s clever, useful and still unmistakably Reverso.
