The original Reverso was created in 1931 in response to British officers stationed in India who needed a watch that could withstand the rigors of polo. Jaeger-LeCoultre’s solution was ingenious: a reversible case that could slide and flip, protecting the dial while preserving elegant proportions suitable for formal wear. This Tribute model stays remarkably close to those early examples. The elongated rectangular case, triple gadroons, and restrained dial layout intentionally echo the earliest Reversos produced in the 1930s. Unlike later Reverso variations that grew thicker or more decorative, the Tribute to 1931 emphasizes purity of line and historical accuracy. It captures the spirit of the original far more closely than most modern rectangular watches. Produced in relatively limited numbers and offered as a collector-focused reference, this model appeals to enthusiasts who value design lineage over complication. The solid reversible caseback also preserves the original intent of the Reverso, offering a clean canvas rather than a display window. As tastes continue to shift back toward thinner, historically grounded watches, the Tribute to 1931 stands as one of the most honest modern Reversos Jaeger-LeCoultre has produced. This is a watch that rewards restraint. On the wrist it feels slim, elegant, and purposefully understated, exactly as a Reverso should. The proportions are excellent and the reversible case mechanism feels precise and satisfying. As a complete set from 2014, this example checks every box for someone looking for a historically correct Reverso that still feels modern and wearable today. Every watch we offer is carefully inspected and verified for authenticity. We stand behind the integrity of each piece and represent it accurately and transparently. Our goal is to ensure complete confidence when purchasing from Huntington Company.
