Notes

According to our research, The Dark Knight Rises Reverso was made in only 10 pieces and presented to Warner Bros executives that were involved with the production of the film. The watch was intended to be a limited edition production model, but it did not come to fruition, making the 10 examples of this watch the only ones that were ever produced.
