Reverso Classic Medium Duo Small Seconds introduced in 2017 exemplifies the iconic reversible case that has defined the Reverso collection since its inception in 1931. Originally designed for British polo players in India, the Reverso’s swivelling case was created to protect the watch’s dial from damage during matches. Over the decades, this innovative design has become synonymous with elegance and functionality, earning a place in the hearts of watch collectors and enthusiasts alike.

At the heart of this timepiece is the distinctive two-faced case. The front dial features a clean, classic design with a guilloché centre, complemented by flame-blued sword hands and Arabic numerals. The small seconds display at six o'clock adds a refined touch, offering a quiet elegance to the watch’s face. The watch is powered by the manually-wound calibre 854 which provides a power reserve of 42 hours. The reverse side reveals a contrasting black dial, designed for a second-time zone, with a 24-hour day/night indicator and a Clous de Paris-patterned guilloché finish. Measuring 25.5mm, the case size ensures a versatile fit, striking the right balance between sophistication and practicality. The stainless steel case is both durable and visually appealing, with three gadroons that subtly highlight its rectangular form. The watch is paired with a Fagliano Collection calfskin strap, enhancing its overall refined yet sporty look.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
