Tomasso said:I've had this Reverso for over three years and have been trying to decide what to do with the blank side.
There's engraving, from simple initials to elaborate design.
Or enameling, which can be quite unique as virtually any image, that you can supply, can be reproduced.
I am suffering some serious inertia on this project.
That enamel looks stunning, especially with the de Lempicka painting!:eusa_clap I´d jump for that one in a heartbeat.
My own every day watch (and, sadly, the only one I own) is just an old Puma, which my father gave to me years ago. He´d broken the glass on it twice at work, so he thought it would be better to pass it along to me and it´s served me well since then. The date function stopped working and I´ve had the steel band replaced twice, but I still like it, nonetheless.
If I had the money though, I´d probably get me a nice vintage looking pocket watch (anyone know of a model that doesn´t break the bank?) or something along the lines of the Reverso pictured above. In any case I´d prefer simplicity and classic looks over something flashy or too bulky, because unfortunately, though I´ve got fairly big hands, in comparison I do have the wrists of a twelve year old girl.
