Self Control

Post by Piloten »

So.
I want one dress(y) watch. Being me, I want my practicality and my lume.

No divers, no chronographs, pilots, tools... A bit of sporty genes, ok...

Long story short, decided on a steel, plain caseback, jlc reverso gran sport.. Been saving my sheckels.

Now, God hates me. Personally.

So, Ball has released three gorgeous new models at great prices. Guy on rwg had a stunning limited model glycine for a very reasonable price. Kong has brought in half a dozen smoking great reps.

Get thee behind me, Satan.

But stay where I can see the tritium

I would go with the original plan, JLC reverso. It is a classic.

Wow, that's nice, but not dressy.

I really like Ball watches and own several both modern and vintage. Some of the yellow gold filled vintage models look "dressy" but they are stark white dials with bold black numerals and hands and no lume whatsoever. They're cheap though.
