Besides the hands, what are the differences beseem the European and North American versions?

I believe the only difference are the hands and the fact that the US version usually comes with a Casa Fagliano cordovan strap instead of the Croc that comes with the EU version. Furthermore the Gen US version is limited edition, so it is rarer to those who know about it. I prefer the EU version to be honest, looks like it fits in well with the overall look of the watch but I would be happy with either one seeing the fact that they are quite hard to find now!

See I don't know if my eyes are playing tricks on me, but I was watching some YouTube videos about the reverso types and stumbled across a side by side pic of the two Gens and it looks like the north American version is shorter and wider? Is it just me?

They are sane size - the difference is hands and Typeface of Reverso writing on the dial. EU is serif (flat font). US is San serif

Feel quite silly asking but does anyone know or has changed he battery of this watch? I have tried and failed miserably, managed to dissemble parts I shouldn’t have... had to send to a watch smith to sort out... battery has run out again and would like to know how to change it myself... anyone willing to walk me through?

Hey so I know puretime made the best reverso, but they don't make it anymore. Does anyone know where I could get the next best European model? Does Hont make it just as good?
