The pure dial adorned with a vertical guilloché motif, the
understated Arabic numerals, the slender blued hands: all the
aesthetic codes of the Reverso are repesented in this ultrathin
variation. This new watch expresses the
quintessence of the personality of the Reverso, a
blend of tradition and nobility, an alliance between
style and elegance.
Jaeger-LeCoultre is also introducing a special
model, the Grande Reverso Ultra Thin Tribute to
1931: what is the idea behind this tribute watch?
Because this new Reverso is designed to serve
as a link between the past and the present,
Jaeger-LeCoultre decided to create two Grande
Reverso Ultra Thin Tribute to 1931 models, in
steel and in 18-karat pink gold, featuring a black or
white dial with baton hour markers and daggershaped
hands directly inspired by the original Reverso. It is the
spirit of 1931 in contemporary dimensions—the Art Deco
charm of the first Reverso models in tune with modern times.
Finally, an understated anthem to complication…
The Reverso Répétition Minutes à Rideau belongs to the category
of exclusive beautiful complications and innovates through
its striking-mechanism activation device combining technical
prowess and aesthetic magic.
With this timepiece, we are renewing the feat of treating a
single timepiece to several different sides, or faces. With the
Reverso Répétition Minutes à Rideau, we achieve this thanks to
a sliding curtain that alternately conceals one or the other of
the dials.
Four sides and four faces for an aesthetic and technical success
to which the Manufacture is adding yet another tour de
force: the operation of one of the noblest horological
complications, the minute repeater, marks the passing of
time by chiming the hours, quarter-hours and minutes
on demand, featuring an unprecedentedly pure and
sonorous tone.
