There doesn't seem to be much interest in bringing this NWBIG back

 

[Shieek]

I would love a good rep of this. I read in r/RepTime that ZF did a Reverso but only for the chinese domestic market. Anyone know anything about that?

 

[Gaspacho]

Never heard of it.
just googled and this showed up:

Personally prefer the simplicity of the 1931 tribute, but this zf is not bad at all.

Well it is a nice watch. Unfortunately far away from the gen - check the dimensions… this one is a no go for me as I was hoping for something closer to the gen -first class or NWBIG.

So it seems that the only option was the 1931 tribute which is no longer available and very rare in the M2M sales :-(

You could change the name of the thread to "PURETIME: bring the Reverso 1931 BACK!" maybe it will get some attention.

I hope they just make a quartz one at some point

 

[ebzen02]

I’d buy one this time. I remember these and they were so nice!

From my first rep phase my only regrets are not getting 1 or 2 more tc subs and this one right here.

...and the linde werdelin super reps, hated them back then but now I think they look quite cool.

I have sold my Tribute to 1931 and regretted it deeply. If only they’d rep it again.

What about MGF ? Tribute small seconds looks goods in pictures / video. Any experience ?

Infact i think that MGF did a very good Rep of a pretty uncommon watch at a competitive price , don't get all this criticism.

Here on RWI there is this Excellent review of the MGF Duo Face in Blue (i LOVE the Green one but this blue is also very beautiful )

Well this is indeed a very interesting and unusual watch. Delivered to me of course by those wonderful people at Trusty. It is interesting in terms of the watch it is rather than the Rep it is As a rep it really isn't enormously close to the Gen in a number of ways 1 It is a bit fat 2...

From the review , the 'weak points ' of the Rep are

As a rep it really isn't enormously close to the Gen in a number of ways

1 It is a bit fat
2 The second dial is set a good bit lower
3 The Crown is not recessed and should be
4 It doesn't function in quite the same way . The Gen has a slider to change the hour hand of the second dial And on this watch both dials are altered from the crown

For me , it's more than acceptable, being a Rep. MGF also uses a 21,600 bph movement, like the Gen .

No luck in finding a NWBIG or first class reverso and it seems unlikely that we will see one anytime soon… so decided to get a gen

Congrats!

Of course, we would like to see it

 

[vcelkama]

Thanks It is a small watch if you normally wear pilots, seamasters or navitimers. But I love it

@vcelkama : class, pure class.

What a watch... I must buy a Reverso as soon as possible!!

Cannot afford the gen, but at least a rep....
