Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Nonantième Q711252J Sold Prices & Listings

The Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso collection was born in 1931 in response to the demands of British officers and polo players stationed in India. They needed a watch that would not only protect the watch glass from breaking during polo matches, But also maintain its elegance. To solve this problem, They came up with an ingenious structure that turned the case over to protect the dial. The name “Reverso” comes from the Latin word meaning “to turn over.” This reversible case structure has become the symbol of the collection. The Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Nonantième Q711252J model is a complication watch released to commemorate the 90th anniversary of the Reverso. The 49.4 mm x 29.9 mm 18K pink gold case, Sapphire crystal, And black alligator strap complete the elegant appearance. The front dial has a silver-grey sunray brushed finish, And there is a large date window at 12 o’clock, A moon phase and small seconds at 6 o’clock, And dauphine hands and gold indexes. The most distinctive feature of this model is the semi-jumping digital hour and disc-type minute and day/night indicator on the back, Which has been applied for the first time on a Reverso. The back dial features two circular windows arranged in a figure 8, With the semi-jumping digital hour on the top and the minutes and day/night indicator on a rotating disc finished with blue lacquer on the bottom. This unique structure reflects both Art Deco aesthetics and a modern sensibility, And shows the same time on both the front and back. It is released in a limited edition of 190 pieces worldwide, Adding to its exclusivity.
