Incoming! JLC Reverso Classic Medium Duoface
Had the extraordinary privilege of purchasing a Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso today, and I couldn’t be happier with the purchase!
I decided to move up from a two-watch roster to a more robust collection last year, and over that year, I have always wanted to add a Reverso. It’s just one of those icons that every serious collection should have, along with an Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch. I love the Reverso’s versatility. Although it’s primarily known as a dress watch, it can trace its origins back to a very sporty past as a piece developed for polo players. I have worn it all day with a pair of jeans and a leather jacket, and with the included brown leather strap, it works perfectly. I will be picking a black leather strap soon, which I will put on whenever I am wearing a suit, or even a tux. It really can be a standalone watch in a one-piece collection. Despite the high regard for this watch, I still feel that it is underrated. If JLC were privately owned, and if they limited production of the Reverso, I feel like the hype would be right up there with Rolex. The finishing is impeccable on both sides, and the inside of the caseback is gorgeous. The Art Deco styling is unlike anything I currently have, and it differentiates itself in many ways other than the fact that I have no other rectangular watches in the collection. It’s such an interesting watch. My watch collection to this point has focused on Rolex and AP; I have to say that it was really nice to walk into an AD and walk out with the piece I wanted the same day.
