If you haven't noticed, we have a real affection for heritage-inspired modern watches around here. I mean, if you want vintage looks with modern components, ease of service, and daily wearability, what could be better?
Right.
So with that in mind we are proud to present this stunning Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Grande Taille, an absolutely spectacular contemporary timepiece with killer Art Deco looks. The Reverso, despite being generally considered a dress watch, was originally developed for polo players who didn't want to remove their watches while on the field. By flipping the patented reversible inner case on its track, the dial display of the Reverso is hidden and protected from any knocks or persiflage one might encounter whilst galloping after a ball astride a horse in a muddy field, making it a suitable sports watch for that time.
The Grande Taille features a steel case with characteristic Art Deco striping and is sized perfectly for small to medium sized wrists at 26x42mm. The dial features silver satin and guilloche textured elements with a subsidiary seconds register at 6:00, Arabic numerals, and blued steel hands that shine brilliantly from any angle.
This particular piece is less than a year old and in outstanding original condition, coming complete with its original box, guarantee papers, and instruction manual. If you're drawn to vintage design but desire something nearly-new, you've found it!
