Why the Reverso is iconic
Created in 1931 so polo players could flip the dial to protect it during matches, the Reverso became an enduring emblem of Art Deco design. Its reversible case also offers a blank metal reverse ideal for engraving, and Jaeger-LeCoultre's in-house movements and Duoface complications have kept it a connoisseur's favourite.
Checking the price
Compare the live listings above for current asking prices. For a watch, the reference number, the year, condition and whether it comes as a full set (box and papers) move the price far more than anything else, so compare like with like.
Sizes & variants
Buyers seek Classic, Tribute, Grande and Duoface models, quartz and manual or automatic movements, in steel, two-tone and gold, in ladies', mid and larger sizes.
How to authenticate
- 1.Confirm the reference and serial number are correct and cleanly engraved, and check the swivelling case operates smoothly and locks properly.
- 2.Have a watchmaker verify the movement is a genuine Jaeger-LeCoultre calibre, and weigh the watch, as the case and any bracelet should feel appropriately solid for the metal.
- 3.Examine dial printing under magnification for crisp, even detail, ensure the box and papers match, and buy from sellers offering an authentication guarantee.
Guidance only — always buy from sellers offering an authentication guarantee.
Buying a pre-owned Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso — FAQs
Why does the case flip over?
It was designed in 1931 so polo players could turn the dial face-down to protect the crystal during play; the solid reverse is also perfect for engraving.
What is a Duoface Reverso?
It is a version with a second dial on the reverse, often showing a second time zone, powered by a single movement visible through both sides.
Is the Reverso water resistant?
As a dress watch with a swivelling case it offers only limited water resistance, so treat it as splash-proof rather than suitable for swimming.
