Reverso Classic Small Monoface
The Reverso Classic Small Monoface arrives in two versions crafted either in stainless steel or pink gold.
Case dimensions measure 35.78 mm by 21 mm with a thickness of 7.4 mm. The steel model is paired with a blue alligator leather strap, while the pink gold version comes with a brown alligator strap. A five-link bracelet is also available as an alternative.
One of the subtle updates appears on the dial, where the JL logo is now applied rather than printed. The reverse side of the case remains reserved for personalised engraving or miniature artwork.
Reverso Classic Small Duetto
Jaeger-LeCoultre also introduced two versions of the Reverso Classic Small Duetto in steel and pink gold.
The case measures 34.2 mm by 21 mm with a thickness of 8.7 mm. The same strap or bracelet options are available.
The front dial combines a guilloché centre with Arabic numerals positioned around the periphery. The reverse dial inverts this arrangement, featuring a smooth centre section with guilloché decoration surrounding the outer edge and no numerals.
The case is set with diamonds either on both sides or exclusively on the reverse side depending on the version.
Reverso Classic Monoface Origin
The Reverso Classic Monoface Origin pays tribute to the first women’s watches within the Reverso collection.
The watch features a stainless steel case measuring 32.5 mm by 16.3 mm with a thickness of 7.9 mm. It is paired either with a blue alligator leather strap or a steel bracelet.
Diamonds are set along the upper and lower sections of the case, while the reverse side is left clear for personalisation.
Reverso Tribute Duoface Small Seconds
The Reverso Tribute Duoface Small Seconds remains very close in size to the first Duoface models introduced in 1994.
The stainless steel case measures 42.9 mm by 25.5 mm with a thickness of 9.23 mm. The reverse dial incorporates a second time zone display, while the watch is paired with a black calfskin leather strap.
Updated Movements with Longer Power Reserve
The Reverso Classic Small Monoface and Reverso Classic Small Duetto are powered by the updated manually wound calibres 846 and 844.
Both movements have received several technical revisions including a silicon escapement and a larger mainspring barrel, increasing the power reserve from 38 hours to 50 hours.
The Reverso Classic Monoface Origin uses the quartz calibre 657 with hours-and-minutes indication.
Powering the Reverso Tribute Duoface Small Seconds is the manually wound calibre 854 offering a 42-hour power reserve.
