Jaeger-LeCoultre's Reverso is perhaps the most recognisable rectangular watch on the market. Originally released in 1931 to allow polo players to protect their watch while playing by flipping it over. It was marketed to the English and European aristocracy, who would often engrave their coat of arms or personal monograms on the reverse of the case. King Edward VIII had his Royal Crest on his Reverso, while Amelia Earhart's watch had a flightpath between the US East Coast and Mexico.
During the Second World War, the Reverso was retired due to square watches going out of fashion as well as the constraints on materials to be used for non-critical items, such as luxury wristwatches. The Reverso was re-released in 1982, after an Italian distributor discovered a trove of unused cases. Since then, the Reverso has formed the lynchpin of JLC's collection.
The Duoface takes the Reverso concept and takes it further by adding another dial to the watch. This can be as simple as letting the wearer flip the watch over to reveal a differently-coloured dial for a special occasion, all the way to letting switch between two different time zones.✅Authentic: All watches are authenticated and come with a letter of authenticity
