Reverso Tribute Duoface Stainless Steel / Black / Fagliano

In Context

At 28.3 mm it is small by current standards, in the range most wristwatches occupied before cases began growing through the 1990s. At 10.34 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. 42 hours of reserve carries it overnight, but not through a weekend in a drawer. At 21,600 vph the seconds hand advances 6 times a second, the slower and more audible rate of an older design.

Q398847J stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a black sunburst dial with a stainless steel case.

Hand-wound movement made up out of 160 pieces with hours/minutes/seconds on the front and second time-zone & 24-hour display on the back.
