Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Classic - References, Prices and Owners' Reviews

Created in 1931, the Reverso was presented at the time as a sports watch that responded to the problem of robustness by offering a reversible case to protect the dial as desired. Nowadays, the Reverso belongs more to the category of dress watches, although by changing the strap (equipped with quick releases) it adapts to all outfits with disconcerting ease.

Timeless, art deco, classic, trendy... All the adjectives could describe the Jaeger Lecoultre reverso. I rarely wear it but every time I put it on my wrist, the same effect occurs: I'm crazy about it.

A watch that hasn't changed its design since 1931 and is still all the rage, what can we add? Nothing... We look at it and we appreciate it.

I discovered this watch on a friend's wrist about twenty years ago. Since then, like many others, I have given in to the call of a big blockbuster before coming to my senses. If you still have a Rolex at 50, it's because you've wasted your life 😉. Comfortable and easy to wear every day, I never part with it. A little softness on the wrist feels good.
