Watch enthusiasts rejoice! Jaeger-LeCoultre is back with a new spin on an old classic, unveiling the Reverso Classic Monoface Small Seconds. It’s a fresh look at the legendary Reverso design introduced way back in 1931. The Reverso was originally crafted for polo-playing military officers to withstand the bumps and bruises of the polo field – now, it’s become an iconic design that even your fashion-obsessed friends would drool over.
This latest release brings some modern flair to a vintage classic, thanks to a new dial design and a fresh ‘coin stack’ guilloché pattern. This pattern creates subtle textures that are almost as mesmerizing as a sunset over the Swiss Alps, punctuated by bold Arabic numerals that scream elegance. It’s a watch that can play both sides – sporty or elegant, contemporary or retro. Just like the original, it remains a chameleon in an ever-changing watch world.
The Reverso Classic Monoface Small Seconds is powered by the hand-wound Calibre 822 and offers a 42-hour power reserve. Don’t worry – your watch will last longer than your Sunday afternoon nap. The steel case is both polished and timeless, offering a mid-sized fit that’s just as comfy on a dainty wrist as it is on a burly one. And for those who like to accessorize, the interchangeable black calfskin strap, designed by Argentine polo bootmaker Casa Fagliano, lets you strap in style.
A truly versatile piece, this Reverso stays true to its roots while incorporating contemporary styles, making it as relevant today as it was nearly a century ago. Whether you’re hitting the polo field or attending a cocktail party, this watch won’t just tell you the time, it will tell a story.
For those eager to snatch one up, this refined piece of horological art is now available at a retail price of 7,950 EUR in Germany and 8,000 EUR in Austria. Just the right amount to make you feel like a time-traveling style icon.
