Reverso Tribute Chronograph Pink Gold / Black

In Context

At 29.9 mm it is small by current standards, in the range most wristwatches occupied before cases began growing through the 1990s. At 11.14 mm thick it is about average for a modern wristwatch. The sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. Rated to 30 m, it is protected against rain and splashes and nothing beyond that.

The movement is hand-wound, so winding it becomes part of the day rather than something the watch does for you. 52 hours of reserve is enough to set it down on Friday evening and find it still running on Monday. At 28,800 vph the seconds hand advances 8 times a second.

389257J stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a black sunburst dial with a pink gold case. Beyond the time it carries a chronograph.

Hand-wound movement based on the 1998 caliber 829; Column-wheel actuated chronograph with horizontal cluch. Back side now with time indication as well as the chronograph sub dials.
