Revelot Universal R18-14D3B3B1 and the R2-14D3B3B2 – Through a fav YouTube channel, I discovered the Revelot watch brand out of Malaysia. With holiday sales prices I initially gravitated towards their green textured dial on the Universal but, unfortunately, I was sent the dark blue dial. These are not expensive watches, and so I expected Revelot to just send me the correct replacement watch. It turns out they had run out of stock with the green dial without notifying me in advance.
I was on a mission for a green dial, so then I negotiated a discount for the quart R2 that does not have a textured dial. Both of these watches would have won me over sans a small date window. Nice enough but nothing remarkable.

The Revelot Universal, a masterful interpretation inspired by Genta’s iconic Polerouter design, enriched with contemporary enhancements. This fusion harmonizes enduring sophistication with a fresh and refined perspective, resulting in a timepiece that seamlessly blends classic charm with modern practicality. The Revelot is slightly bigger with a 41mm case but most of the other specs are the same.
