Devotees of the timeless Reverso will be thrilled by the unveiling of the Grande Reverso Ultra Thin 1931, the third member of a marvellous­ly extravagan­t trilogy. The delectable chocolate-tone dial, a subtle contrast against the pink gold of the case, adds to the luxury of a timepiece that will send watch collectors’ hearts racing, and garner a new generation of haute horlogerie enthusiast­s. In the spirit of its historical ascendance, the Grande Reverso Ultra Thin 1931 evokes Jaeger-LeCoultre’s finest hours of classic Art Deco, defining the ultimate expression of a movement that heralded industrial design while favouring refined craftsmans­hip.

Elegance radiates from the Grande Reverso Ultra Thin 1931 with its revamped handmade cordovan leather strap, produced by the masters of fine leatherwor­k Casa Fagliano, along with baton-shaped hour markers and unique hour and minute hands that feature a dagger-type profile. This creation of pure sophistica­tion comes complete with an inscriptio­n of ‘Reverso’, produced exactly as it was on the original Reverso. Testament to a legendary heritage, the Grande Reverso Ultra Thin 1931 is a spectacula­r piece, the result of the brand’s 180 years of passion, fine craftsmans­hip, and creative force.
