In the watch industry, Jaeger-LeCoultre manufacture is considered a special place because it is a serious factory where both cases and movements are made, which is a rare combination. A simple case requires dozens of steps that involve both hand and machine work. The efforts are necessary to achieve the right shape, polish, and of course unique case flipping mechanism.
The size and style of Jaeger-LeCoultre Grande Reverso
The largest of modern watches are the super-sized Reverso cases in Jaeger- LeCoultre’s highest-end models such as the Gyrotourbillon II and the Triptyque. The Grande Reverso case is 32mm wide and about 52mm tall. That length of the case prevents it from looking small. Although the timepiece wears large it also does not feel petite in your wrist.
Design and look of Jaeger-LeCoultre Grande Reverso
The Reverso is designed to have a classic look, those 3 horizontal lines in the base above and below the dial really make it look distinctive, and the overall look and feel of the timepiece are ultra-classy.
Pros of Jaeger-LeCoultre Grande Reverso
There is no doubt that the Jaeger-LeCoultre Grande Reverso Lady Ultra Thin Duetto Duo is elegant and classic even with just a simple glimpse. The rectangular case it occupies somehow adds a vintage as well as a unique touch in a world where round watches dominate. In some options, diamonds subtly adorn the gold reversible case, providing just the right amount of shimmer. But the beauty of the Grande Reverso really relies on its versatility, not completely overpowering your outfit but complementing it instead.
The faces are polished with the mother of pearl surface, and while it looks bulky up close, it is impressive to observe how thin and light it actually is. The luxurious leather strap removes any concerns with its double folding buckle.
Cons of Jaeger-LeCoultre Grande Reverso
Well, it is really difficult to pick apart a timepiece as refined as this when it comes to make and finish. In terms of utility, the time zone feature may be rarely used and completely unnecessary depending on the user but it will be nice to have around just in case.
