Hands-On: General Douglas MacArthur's Personal Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso, Complete With Lacquered Monogram
In April of this year, while searching through an Antiquorum catalog, we discovered one of the coolest examples of one of the coolest watches of all time – a Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso owned by none other than General Douglas MacArthur. We've always known the Reverso to be the choice of several great men, but it was unknown that General MacArthur in particular wore the watch.

42mm ROO, black/red or slate grey?
Hey guys! With impending price increase I've decided to pull the trigger on a new ROO that I've been thinking about for some time.

I think the grey is really great to look at it but I wonder if that cool color will start to get plain after a few months. Any input and wristshots would be greatly appreciated!

GentsOk, it's time to pull the trigger and I would like to know what your thoughts are on this. All of them have their pros and cons. Hopefully your insights will give me that extra push to make the best possible desision. Jules audemars ChonoNovelty 44mm ssROO Panda ss

How old is old?

Where is the sweet spot regarding production year vs price?Are there any other issues I should consider beside price and production year (technical stuff, not gold/dial color).
