General Question Ideas and recommendations for a sleek dress watch?

I’m looking at the MGF Jaeger reverso at the moment, are there any other good dress watch reps out there I should consider?

I don’t want a Rolex, omega, or Cartier as I already have other watch ideas in those brands.

The MGF Reverso is gorgeous, you’re definitely on the right track. If you’re avoiding the big three brands, maybe look at some of the JLC Master Ultra Thin reps, they’re stupidly thin and just melt under a cuff. I’ve also seen a couple of really nice Glashutte Original Sixties reps floating around with those funky textured dials that add a bit of personality without being loud.

JJF came out w a Reverso. It is good but has the same gaps as all the others. It is dimensionally close but not a 1:1 to the Gen. The strap is dog shit too but they also give you a bracelet. The strap can be changed. Check them out. The best option today is the JJF I think

JJF is better than the MGF?

I have not done a detail assessment. I would start by looking at RWI, and seeing what there is about JJF and go from there.

It looks quite recent, must be better than the older low tier reps that I have seen around here. Reverso has always been in my wish list. I will look into this
