Description

The Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso was first released in 1931 & is one of the most famous models in the watchmaking industry.  Developed specifically to withstand the brutal action of a polo match, the Reverso features a pioneering hinged case that can be flipped over to protect the fragile glass and dial during play.

Full service , new glass, new crown, polishing and new strap fitted by Jaeger Le Coultre London

The Reverso has a recognisable rectangular shape and an Art Deco styling that evokes images of a classic New York City skyline.  Some 90 years after it was first released, the Reverso is coveted by many collectors around the world (not just Polo players) and remains one of the most popular watches available today.  Modern versions are available in several sizes and expand on the reversible case concept by adding complications, exhibition backs and even a second watch dial to the reverse side of the watch.

Just at home in the boardroom as it is on the Polo field, the Jaeger LeCoultre Reverso is a perfect example of a design solving a difficult problem and is a true horological legend.
