So, I have been eyeballing JLC Reverso for more then a year now and Really love the way they look, but I have two problems.
My first problem is that I am attracted to sport watches more son then dress, and the other is I mostly wear jeans even to the office. Now I do wear either a polo or button down shirts at the office, but they are usually very casual and some of my shirts are or contain colors outside of the more neutral blues, browns and greens. I am afraid that the Reverso just does not look right when wearing jeans and non-neutral color shirts.
The model I am currently looking at is the Reverso Classic Medium Duoface Small Seconds on brown leather strap.
Here are a few pictures of the watch on my wrist.
Sorry, no full body pictures of the watch on my wrist. Trust me. You really don't want to see that ;-)

My other dilemmas are that I am a bit of a watch and movement snob, I like my watches to be water resistant beyond 3atm and just have to have lume on the watch.
I have been trying to move a little more towards dressier watches with a bit of sport flair or sport watches with a bit of dress flair.
Yet, I always seem to be pulled back into the all sports models. I also like auto-winders, but I do have one manual wind watch in my collection that can go 3 days without having to wind the watch.
I am also now eyeballing the New Cartier Santos Blue dial that is a 2019 pre-SIHH release. Looking gorgeous and and the nice thing there is that the Ad that carries JLC also carries Cartier.
Now, I don't dive nor do I do anything outdoors that requires a sports watch on a regular basses. I just like them. But when I am doing something outside that is very active or could damage a watch, I wear a G-Shock or my Sekio Padi Turtle.
So, with that said I am just looking for opinions and comments based on your experiences revolving around watches and how they look and work in the real world.
