SIHH 2016: Jaeger-LeCoultre

Share

It’s been 85 years since the creation of the Reverso watch; and the anniversary brings a bountiful harvest of Jaeger-LeCoultre’s most iconic watch, with Reverso One, Reverso Classic and Reverso Tribute in various styles and movements, and the Atelier Reverso, where anything goes.


[vc_text_separator title=”Reverso One Collection” title_align=”separator_align_center”]

For women, three models with quartz and mechanical movements, ranging from dreamy, fun to classy; all elegant.

Reverso One Cordonnet. How does one take something as seriously elegant as the Reverso, and make it casual and playful? With two-tone case in pink gold and steel, matched with leather cord-strap. Quartz movement, in steel case (33.8 mm x 16.3 x 7.0 mm).

Reverso One Duetto Moon, steel (front)


Reverso One Duetto Moon. A mechanical movement will require greater care but it’s worth it, for the lady who appreciates mechanical finesse. On the front is a silvered dial with Arabic numerals, yet a flip of the case reveals a second watch face, a beautiful mother-of-pearl moon phase display against choice of dark blue or chestnut enamel. Hand wound movement with 38 hours power reserve, steel or pink gold case (40.1 mm x 20.0 x 10.0 mm).

[vc_text_separator title=”Atelier Reverso” title_align=”separator_align_center”]

Single-dial Reverso models have long been open to customisation through their casebacks; the Atelier opens that door for dual-faced Duo and Duetto models. The options are plenty, including gem-setting, and stone dials of myriad colours. To start the ball rolling, Christian Louboutin has been commissioned to create a set of custom proposals, which will be available just for 2016.
