I've been seeing a lot of grey sellers have the JLC Reverso Tribute (Burgundy) listed for way above list price, when you can purchase it directly from JLC online, or have a dealer order one for you and get it at MSRP.

Why is that?

Is there something I'm missing?

I've been trying to figure that out myself.

I’d be surprised if a dealer could actually get it - the JLC Boutique is in my experience very strict on those pieces only going to customers known to them.

I believe therefore you can only get one by showing up in person at a Boutique - as there are few of these Boutiques worldwide, and they often don’t have one in stock (London for example rarely does) the aftermarket price is high.

I have one, but it took a lot of visits to JLC to get one allocated to me. Some would just prefer to pay the premium and have one delivered?

In any event, it’s an amazing watch!!!

Maybe the dealers are tough, but you can readily order them at MSRP from JLCs website direct!

I just ordered mine from JLC online and got here this week. This is not an allocation piece and is readily available for MSRP. Don’t fall for the market manipulation.

Good to know. Anyone have a picture of theirs?

It's not mine, but here you go. Tried it on at a boutique.

Omgoodness what a beauty.

Wow, that's a beauty!

scarlet knight · 4 September 2020, 06:16 AM

Thank you, looks great!

Really spectacular color! If they offered that color with a duoface I'd buy it in a second.

Just came in from the Costa Mesa Boutique.

What a stunner.

JLC eShop services told me it was the only one available atm in the US, but not yet discontinued.

If you want one, make it happen, not sure why it’s going for so much second hand when you can order it online or from a boutique and have it shipped.
