Of course you can wear it with absolutely anything you want. A reverso is an awesome watch and should be enjoyed whether you are going to a BBQ in the summer or you are going to a wedding.

Reverso is a strap monster too. You can always dress it down by changing the strap to a brighter/more relaxed color (blue, gray, olive, light brown, etc.)

 

My boy thinks so.

 

this is awesome

 

Reversals are highly versatile. I would wear one with anything. But if you are overly concerned, maybe check out the Reverso Squadra line from about a decade ago. A bit sportier/casual.

 

They're very versatile, I think other people in this thread have already said that so sorry for being a parrot. But on a more basic leather pattern like calf or Nubuck instead of alligator, it can be dressed down very very well. They're just fookin gorgeous, and so cool

 

Reverso is the first sports watch (polo). Of course it can be worn with casual clothes.

 

It looks good with anything. Classic look.

 

Perhaps it's worth remembering that the Reverso case was designed to withstand the rigors of polo matches.

 

Wear one in the buff. Could be the missing link for an ailing libido.

 

Casual wear? Reverso ? that's a tricky question..... never tried with chinos

 

I think it can class up whatever you're wearing. I say go for it.

 

Welcome to WUS! I absolutely think so, and I think Don Draper would agree.

 

Sending me one and I'll let you know. I'll force myself to enjoy it somehow.

 

Yep! Even with my burgundy one on the right strap it looks dope with jeans etc.

I love this strap! where'd you get it?

 

Personally I think Reverso works much better with long sleeves. YMMV

 

Yes. I put a brown Casa Fagliano strap on my Reverso and it is in my daily rotation. I am retired so that means it is worn with casual clothes almost all of the time and the watch shows it, i.e., it was many scratches.

Apologies for the upside down mirror shot, but is the only photo I have of the Reverso and casual clothes, a red polo shirt, and that is not just a wrist shot. But I have also worn it with a t-shirt, shorts and sandals, especially during this pandemic.

 

Casa Fagliano or an Ostrich strap, and wear it with anything. I live in PHX AZ where pretty much daily business cadence is jeans and a polo shirt at the office. If and when I meet with clients or execs where a suit is required, I just put the black alligator back on. That quick change mechanism for JLC reversos makes changing these out super easy too.

Also helps that I have a duoface, so it wears with a lot more than a standard reverso would.

 

Here's how I'm sporting my Reverso today. It's on light tan dakota leather from Delugs.

 

Absolutely!!

The original sports watch for polo players.

 

You can actually wear one even without a shirt on! but please no pics.

 

100% looks great with casual wear. Take it off the alligator strap and it becomes such a versatile watch.

Here is mine on a few different straps. Also added pictures of the casa fagliano strap options at the end and any of those would be amazing as well.

Wonderful pics! I ended up picking up the Cognac Cordovan from Casa Fagliano as well, but am currently in the Chocolate strap mood. This particular duoface classic is a severely underrated GMT IMO.

I tried on the Tribute and the Moon, and neither resonated the way this one did. Don't get me wrong, the Tribute moon is exquisite...but was just a tad too big for my taste, as the lugs definitely came to my wrist edges far more than the depth perception of my Large Reverso Duo pics made it seem.

 

I'm strongly considering a Reverso this winter as the third watch in my collection, and its versatility is one of the main appeals.

The Reverso is the original sports watch, but 90 years later it's seen as a dress watch. That alone speaks to the wide range of acceptability in terms of dress code. But I also think that--as several pictures up-thread demonstrate--in stainless steel this watch is a strap monster. Black or brown alligator leather? You could wear it to your own wedding. Brown cordovan? It's business casual and perfect for the office. Calfskin or suede? In almost any color? It works brilliantly for cookouts in jeans and a t-shirt.

As someone who would like his third watch to bridge the span between dress and casual, I suspect the Reverso might be perfect for me. Perhaps it would be for you, as well.

 

Back in the days of going to the office, I would wear my reverso duoface on a croc strap with jeans and a button-down shirt regularly (and yes, that's where my watches sit on my arm). My tastes run a bit formal and I like to wear my watches, and so I decided that my reverso looks great in lots of contexts. My personal approach is that my reverso is an option most times I wear a button-down shirt.

For what it's worth, I'm an example of someone who worried about this question quite a bit and ended up absolutely loving the watch immediately and wearing it constantly. For me, the key argument in favour of pulling the trigger was that I already knew myself to be happy to wear in an everyday setting watches that that I considered to be similarly formal. But your mileage may vary!

Best of luck with your decision!

 

I used to wear my Gran Sport with everything. Strange JLC felt the need to discontinue instead of building upon the line. Was actually getting ready to sell this piece soon, unfortunately.

 

Here's another casual take on green shell cordovan.
