Abstract: We show that for all very special quaternionic manifolds a different N=1 reduction exists, defining a Kaehler Geometry which is ``dual to the original very special Kaehler geometry with metric G_{a�ar{b}}= - partial_a partial_b ln V (V={1/6}d_{abc}lambda^a lambda^b lambda^c). The dual metric g^{ab}=V^{-2} (G^{-1})^{ab} is Kaehler and it also defines a flat potential as the original metric. Such geometries and some of their extensions find applications in Type IIB compactifications on Calabi--Yau orientifolds.
