I am actually buying my Reverso tomorrow so my opinion might be biased but Michael should for sure get the Reverso. There is more to it than a carrera. It’s perfect, versatile - can dress it up or down, looks great on any strap and bracelet, cool reverse function, can put a meaningful engraving. The carrera is nice but I just think Reverso has much more to offer.
Reverso, Ultra thin is there way to go. But then again I’m not a. Big Chrono guy. Plus, not a TAG guy either. Size wise the Reverso outweighs the TAG. But I see Michael as a sporty guy. Go practical…TAG, go with the heart…Reverso.
I have a 1964 eggshell dial Heuer Carrerra and a 1980s handwound JLC Reverso medium size. I have fairly big wrists but as both these watches are true classics the size of the watch doesn't bother me. Both will give you many years of joy.
I have a CS3111 on a T&H brown ostrich strap. One of your old videos inspired me to get it, it was my first ever “big” watch purchase and it’s been my favorite since.
I went into a boutique last week looking for a Polaris Mariner and just happened to see a Reverso Duo in the cabinet.. out of curiosity I asked to try it on.. I left that store and have not stopped looking at TH-cam videos of them since. It will be my next watch. Good luck finding the one !
I have a 269 movement Omega from the late 30s and it's one of my most accurate watches. It's a little on the small side for me though at 34mm (and I like small watches 36-38m). I'd like the mention the new 3861 Speedmaster movement. For a while when I was checking regularly (and winding everyday) I was getting +0.4 spd. Remarkable. Correction: I think it's a Cal. 265 And I'd vote for the Reverso, all day every day.
And in the theme of geeky stuff that was noticed in the Gucci movie that weren't period correct was the pen the uncle used to sign away the company to Adam Driver's character. It was a Cross Peerless rollerball with platinum trim. Didn't come out till 2015. But they probably picked it because it was really blingy.
Great videos as always! Just a suggestion, it’d be nice if you two could do wrist checks since I always try and figure out what watches are being worn. Cheers!
Michael definitely wears the Reverso! Both great watches - I very nearly bought the Carerra, but then lost interest in it due to it's thickness and so so movement. I own an Extra Thin Reverso and love it. It's a lifer. I'd guess my personal style is not so far from Michael's and the Reverso wears well. A true classic: versatile, subtle, beautiful. One of the greatest watches ever and super cool dressed down on brown. Great video, BTW.
guys, between the JLC and carrera chrono, just go onto the Breguet Type 20: authentic, class/chic, 39mm chrono and it's a breguet for reasonable price 2nd hand, created before swatch group acquisition. And discontinued which means rare!
My first lux watch was a Heuer Autavia from 1968 soo big connection to Heuer. Rn I'm actually looking to buy a reverso. And honestly I have to say the reverso is the better fit. Idk just the feeling regarding Michael... reverso fits better rn
Not sure if this is really important for TJ or if it was just a joke, but at 17:44 you can see his face. Just in case you didnt do it on purpose. Oh and I really like the Heuer!
Michael, a little more info on your collection and rounding it out would have been helpful. However, regardless. REVERSO!! Timeless, classic, elegant, and really not bad dressed down.
If you are a car/racing/sports guy the Heuer is the only one. If you are a style guy, a signet ring guy then only the Reverso. It's about defining your personal style first, the accoutrements second. Not the other way around.
Tough comparison. They are both very different and carry almost opposite vibes. I think eventually Michael will get both. Start with the one that stands farther from the rest of your collection. That is likely the JLC. But watching the video I got the sense the Heuer is the one Michael prefers
get the big JLC. i have one it's so badass. reverso is slim to begin with. the big one is still super elegant but they pop... which makes is so different to a tank.
Heuer, that's a special watch and prices are rising. You can always get a Reverso down the line. The Reverso is also not going to be as good at being a daily driver, IMO.
Go for the Heuer, it’s from a brand that no longer exists but the name is still recognizable. Buying a Heuer is like buying a double-stamped Grand Seiko or a Tudor Submariner… it’s watch history!
I use my chronographs fairly regularly to time various things (work presentations) so I would imagine a chronograph is useful to time sections in film production. If you already have a chronograph then probably the Reverso, though I've always found the Arabic numerals kinda flat and boring. That Carrera reissue is hard to argue against. There's also a gold version and black with white accent subdials. The Nivada Grenchen CASD is another reissue chronograph with a lot of charm, I own a vintage one and it's useful to time independent events simultaneously (cooking). In pictures it doesn't work, but in person it's way more digestible.
I say, if you've got $3,000 to spend then look no further than the Longines Master Chrono. I recommend the blue dial, absolutely fabulous! The JLC is absolutely nuts, don't get me wrong. But the Master Chrono offers SO MUCH for such an unbelievable price is simply impossible not to recommend. That's just my take though. Ultimately, it's up to personal preference
The JLC is just several levels above the carrera, you have to go with the reverso … and if you don’t then we know that all that herb got baked into yer head
Reverso as I wear suits everyday for work and I need a JLC in my life. Tag Monaco us super sexy and unique especially the Steve Mc queen one with the crown at 9 o clock.
Of those two, I’d pick the Reverso. I think it’s a better watch, from a more interesting brand, with a cooler history. That said, since you want this to be your forever watch, the *Michael* watch, get the Heuer. It’s more you and will go with more of your wardrobe. Still a beautiful piece from a great brand
When will Michael be added to the about us section of the website?
Has to be the JLC Reverso. A watch you'll never regret.

17:44 you totally missed his face
Michael please get the JLC Reverso. That watch is such a classic, looking to add a Reverso in my collection down the road as well.
I think it’s gotta be the Reverso, such a cool watch with how he dresses and I feel like the “sporty” watch is already covered with other watches.
17:45 full face shot of the "mystery man" if he's truly supposed to be more anonymous perhaps some additional editing is needed here...
The Reverso small second is just a classic, good with a suit, good with Jeans. I have essentially the same, on brown Ostrich and love it.
Reverso, Ultra thin is there way to go. But then again I’m not a. Big Chrono guy. Plus, not a TAG guy either. Size wise the Reverso outweighs the TAG. But I see Michael as a sporty guy. Go practical…TAG, go with the heart…Reverso.

i have 8inch wrists but the reverso medium thin has perfect proportions for me
I have a CS3111 on a T&H brown ostrich strap. One of your old videos inspired me to get it, it was my first ever “big” watch purchase and it’s been my favorite since.
JLC are the watchmaker’s watchmaker… they provided movements and parts for many of the great luxury brands
Great video as always! Can someone tell me the vintage Omega movement they referred to?
I went into a boutique last week looking for a Polaris Mariner and just happened to see a Reverso Duo in the cabinet.. out of curiosity I asked to try it on..
I left that store and have not stopped looking at TH-cam videos of them since. It will be my next watch. Good luck finding the one !
I’m with you on dress watches with casual wear. Do it all of the time.
Reverso classic ref.250 cal.846
I recommend. Beautiful watch.
JLC Reverso Duo is one of the best watches I’ve ever purchased, will never ever leave my collection. Good luck.

Christian can you mention the brand of your sweater? Would love for you guys to mention clothing in your videos!

y'all failed hiding the poor guys face 17:44
Great videos as always!

Reverso ultra-slim was my wedding watch. Flawless.
Love the sweater Christian

I recently got a Heuer CS3110 and it is amazing. I can not take it off a unique piece
“Long story short” is never short
Michael, that JLC Reverso is pure class and would look great on you!
Same as with Santos, Reverso only in medium size.
Not sure if this is really important for TJ or if it was just a joke, but at 17:44 you can see his face. Just in case you didnt do it on purpose. Oh and I really like the Heuer!
Damn it
At least I’m making a dumb face
Obviously the reverso...
But don't go too big, they're meant to be worn smaller, the whole ethos of the watch
Michael's hair is always perfect
Theo, where is that sweater from?
Michael, a little more info on your collection and rounding it out would have been helpful. However, regardless. REVERSO!! Timeless, classic, elegant, and really not bad dressed down.
Get the JLC medium small seconds
Get the Reverso, Michael. It is timeless elegance and suits you better.
Heuer would be my choice, would fit great on his wrist. 👍🏼
Christian's GS "Omiwatari" strap looks too long on him :(
I would personally go with the 64 in 18 k gold white dial 🔥
What‘s the name of the glasses?
Heuer would be my pick but I am partial to chronos and anything automotive. Both beautiful watches.
If you are a car/racing/sports guy the Heuer is the only one. If you are a style guy, a signet ring guy then only the Reverso. It's about defining your personal style first, the accoutrements second. Not the other way around.
The HEUER!! Chronographs are just so rewarding!
Two very different watches. There aren't many Heuers I like but that is one I love. That said the Reverso is the one .
Tough comparison. They are both very different and carry almost opposite vibes. I think eventually Michael will get both. Start with the one that stands farther from the rest of your collection. That is likely the JLC. But watching the video I got the sense the Heuer is the one Michael prefers
Michael, go for the reverso
Omega's 321 caliber is a Lemania movement. Made by Lemania for the Speedmaster.
We must live vicariously through you, get the reverso!
Michael always sounds drunk and TJ most definitely as well :D
Keep up the good work!
get the big JLC. i have one it's so badass. reverso is slim to begin with. the big one is still super elegant but they pop... which makes is so different to a tank.
I feel like the Reverso is absolutely a Michael watch. Great choice
Reverso all the way. I am biased as I have the green tribute. You won't look back.
Heuer, that's a special watch and prices are rising. You can always get a Reverso down the line. The Reverso is also not going to be as good at being a daily driver, IMO.
Carrera, just because I have one , and I like to stick up for the underdog. 😁
What the hell was christian wearing on his wrist with that blue dial?? A Grand Seiko??
Reverso, without a doubt. More elegant and sophisticated look on wrist. Heritage. True horology.
christian & michael have a serious "cosmo & wanda" thing going on today
Go for the Heuer, it’s from a brand that no longer exists but the name is still recognizable. Buying a Heuer is like buying a double-stamped Grand Seiko or a Tudor Submariner… it’s watch history!
Lovely videos gents, but let's cut to the chase.... Where's Rollie? I'm missing my pseudo Italian east coast Dad.
Reverso gets my vote. I think it is pronounced “Gran Tai” but I would confirm with a native speaker.
I am not a French speaker but that's how Tim Mosso pronounces it 👍
Polo is a sport =). go with the Reverso
JLC all the way… The Heuer is killer.. but DUDE the JLC!
Buy whichever speaks to you aesthetically,and or functionally.
That said I own the Classic large small seconds .
I use my chronographs fairly regularly to time various things (work presentations) so I would imagine a chronograph is useful to time sections in film production. If you already have a chronograph then probably the Reverso, though I've always found the Arabic numerals kinda flat and boring. That Carrera reissue is hard to argue against.

The Nivada Grenchen CASD is another reissue chronograph with a lot of charm, I own a vintage one and it's useful to time independent events simultaneously (cooking). In pictures it doesn't work, but in person it's way more digestible.
I would 100% buy a pink seamaster
Where did Michael got those sweters?
Used to watch a T&H a few years ago is Anna and Rolly still involved?
I don't mind Heuer, but the Reverso beats the shit out of it.
buy the tag!
I say, if you've got $3,000 to spend then look no further than the Longines Master Chrono. I recommend the blue dial, absolutely fabulous! The JLC is absolutely nuts, don't get me wrong. But the Master Chrono offers SO MUCH for such an unbelievable price is simply impossible not to recommend. That's just my take though. Ultimately, it's up to personal preference
Michael Michael Michael...there is only one choice..get the JLC and never look back!!
The actual saying is the watchmakers watchmaker
Just curious. Did you ever purchase the Reverso?
Only one winner for me - has to be Reverso!
i believe reverso will suitt Michael better. As investment maybe heuer works better
Especially on beads of rice
And ingraved iron snail
JLC. No question!!
Another great video guys
The JLC is just several levels above the carrera, you have to go with the reverso … and if you don’t then we know that all that herb got baked into yer head
I vote for the Reverso.
JLC no question
17:45 for the blocked dude
Reverso as I wear suits everyday for work and I need a JLC in my life. Tag Monaco us super sexy and unique especially the Steve Mc queen one with the crown at 9 o clock.
Immediately no on the Tag! Lol
love your video's but Gucci's market cap is $15.6 Billion not $60B... big big difference
Definitely the Reverso.
The reverso all the way!!!
I love the investment talk
9 years old does not need to think about investment
Haven't seen Anna in a long time. Has she left the show?
Of those two, I’d pick the Reverso. I think it’s a better watch, from a more interesting brand, with a cooler history. That said, since you want this to be your forever watch, the *Michael* watch, get the Heuer. It’s more you and will go with more of your wardrobe. Still a beautiful piece from a great brand
Reverso hands down
JLC Reverso, what else?
Michael, JLC all the way 😉
JLC FTW!
Wtf I actually dreamt with a reverso and now this video is up :o
You really did a bad job at censoring your friend 😬 For the first 2 frames of chapter "Why Does Omega Listen?" ( 17:45 ) his face is visible...
Reverso for sure
Are you kidding me?🤡reverso all the way ,no need to sleep on it!👍💪
100% reverso!!!
