The new Reverso Tribute Duoface Calendar watch brings a fine stroke of modern elegance to its reinterpretation of two iconic Jaeger-LeCoultre complications — the triple calendar and the Duoface.
The triple calendar displays the day, date and month. The Duoface offers two time zones on different faces of the Reverso, driven by a single, oblong-shaped movement introduced in 1994.
Preserving the legendary spirit of the original 1931 model whilst incorporating the contemporary aesthetics, the new JLC Reverso Tribute Duoface Calendar watch is available in stainless steel and pink gold versions. These new timepieces come with Casa Fagliano straps.
The triple calendar takes prime position on the recto dial of the new Reverso Tribute Duoface Calendar. These indications are balanced with a moon-phase display at 6 o’clock.
In the steel model, discretion and understated textures take the lead. Alternating surface finishes, such as polished hands set against a grained dial, ensure that all indications remain readable at a glance, even as the tone-on-tone colour palette imparts ultimate refinement.
The radiance of the pink-gold model is further amplified by the delicate lines of a sunray dial finish, its silvered tones bringing out the contrasting hue of the hands and hour markers.
The verso dial enjoys a completely refreshed look in both steel and pink-gold models of the Reverso Tribute Duoface Calendar, characterised by a more select number of surface finishing techniques and a greater sense of space.
The traditional Clous de Paris guillochage decorating the outer dial segment gives way to a sunray finish, originating from the same point as the hour and minute hands.
This expansive radial effect is enhanced by the new hour markers, now set along the exterior periphery of the chemin-de-fer minuterie.
At the 6 o’clock position, a day-night indication has been set behind the hour-and-minute counter, creating a subtle way of revealing essential information about the second time-zone.
Casa Fagliano is an Argentina-based and world-renowned artisanal workshop specialising in polo boots, known for its values of traditional craftsmanship and quality.
Calf-leather straps in the distinctive style of Casa Fagliano are paired with the Reverso Tribute Duoface Calendar, deep blue for the steel model and brown for the pink-gold model.
The JLC Reverso Tribute Duoface Calendar steel model comes with a matching deployant buckle while the pink-gold version has a classic pin buckle. Each model also comes with a bi-material strap in leather and fabric, specially selected in hues inspired by the patina of vintage equestrian equipment.
Thanks to Jaeger-LeCoultre’s quick-change strap and buckle attachment system, wearers are easily able to switch between strap options for maximum versatility.
The Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Duoface Calendar watch houses the manually wound calibre 853.
Entirely designed, produced and assembled in-house, calibre 853 is one of the rare creations known as form movements, dedicated mechanical constructions that are conceived expressly for the contours of a non-round watch and therefore distinguished by their exclusivity.
The hand-wound JLC calibre 853 preserves all the details and refinement that characterise traditional haute horlogerie, such as chamfered edges, countersunk jewels, mirror-polished screws, and bridges decorated with Geneva Stripes.
