The presentation of 8 vintage Reverso models took place in New York.
Jaeger-LeCoultre has unveiled the fifth capsule collection as part of the The Collectibles program. This time, the lineup includes 8 rare Reverso models dated from 1931 to 1937. The watch presentation is currently being held at the Jaeger-LeCoultre boutique on Madison Avenue in New York. The event will last until February 23.
The collection includes the following models:
Reverso 1931 with a black dial. The model's minute track in "railroad" style and trapezoidal hour markers inspired modern Reverso Tribute models.
Bicolor Reverso with a case made of steel and 350-grade yellow gold. This 1936 model is equipped with caliber 410 (the first mechanism Jaeger-LeCoultre developed for the Reverso collection).
A model with a small seconds hand from 1937, equipped with caliber 413 - the fourth in-house movement in the Reverso collection. The black dial already features the Jaeger-LeCoultre inscription, indicating the 1937 merger of the Jaeger and LeCoultre brands.
Bicolor Reverso 1931 Dame, where the case and lugs are made of yellow gold, and the brancards (side parts of the case) are made of white gold.
Reverso 1931 Dame with blued hands. A distinctive feature of this model is the double signature on the dial, indicating that these watches were supplied to a select group of prestigious retailers.
The women's Reverso 1931, where instead of a thin calfskin rope strap, a chrome bracelet with a similar design is used.
Two Reverso 1931 models with black dials, presented with black and brown calfskin straps.
