This timepiece perfectly illustrates the watchmaking artistry of Jaeger-LeCoultre, a manufacture founded in 1833 in the Vallée de Joux. The Reverso remains one of the most iconic creations in 20th-century watchmaking, originally conceived in 1931 in response to a request from British officers stationed in India who wished to protect their watches whilst playing polo. The moon phase complication adds a poetic dimension to this technical timepiece, confirming Jaeger-LeCoultre’s reputation in the field of complications and astronomical watchmaking.
