Lot Essay

Highly attractive, the present timepiece belongs to the Number One model, which was launched in 2001. Crafted in platinum, this model stands out as the very first Reverso to feature a platinum case. The skeletonized dial showcases intricate craftsmanship that was entirely completed in-house at Jaeger-LeCoultre's newly established metiers d’art workshop.

The Reverso
First introduced in 1931, the Reverso boasts an intriguing history, perfectly blending functionality with elegance. The inspiration for this iconic timepiece came from Swiss businessman and watch enthusiast César de Trey, who was attending a polo match in India. During the event, he witnessed a British army officer's watch glass break and was challenged to design a watch that was both durable enough to withstand the intensity of a polo match and stylish enough for formal occasions. And thus, the Reverso was born.
