I think is a great watch to me, with a super interesting manufacture movement I just get one and I will show you the pics.

Jaeger Lecoultre Reverso Septantième Platinum: My holidays watch.
Among all those I brought with me, the Reverso Septantième was the one which got most wrist time, which went everywhere with me, with the Rolex 6542. I wanted to rediscover a watch I didn't wear for a while, several months, to be precise. And the experien...
A great piece...
That I got to play with in Trieste - thanks for that! I guess it would take me some time to get used to the weight - for the rest it really is exquisite As for rectangular 8 day power reserve watches - there is also the Eterna Madison 8 Days with their ne...
I didn't know that Eterna released such a movement! Manual winding?
It was my pleasure to share this Reverso with you, my friend. Best, Nicolas
Hand wind, 8 days
Here are the pictures. I am not so impressed by the design dial side but the movement looks interesting, even if it is not (normal for the price point) finished to the standard of your Reverso From (both images): ...
Ok, I agree that the dial design is not enthusiasming, but the movement is interesting.
Will try to learn more about this one.

You can be forgiven for not wearing it for months, since you just have too many watches.
The photos are beautiful. I wonder if you took a wrist shot with your Montblanc 1858 Chronograph in front of that "Grand Hotel Minerva" in Firenze? Cheers, Luis
A jaw dropping reverso! I could go on about the details, I'll only say that
I love the ruthenium with the moon phase colors!
Just by pictures, this is one of the nicest Reverso's
I hope to see and feel it in the metal someday. Very nice picture of the watch and places...documenting the trip and watch with this sort of pictures is really cool!
I have always considered this one as...
...a classy dresswatch and not really thought it could be also on the more casual side. You were actually right to test it this way also, it works well even if it is surely not a toolwatch ! LOL Not only I agree that the caliber is interesting from the ho...
You gave me some inspiration
My Reverso has gone unworn all summer, but your post compelled me to wear it today with some white linen and jeans for an end of summer Friday. Great post! ...
What I absolutely love about Reversos is their Guilloché dials, so a Ruthenium guilloché dial is on top of the list!
Lovely pictures of a lovely watch, thanks! All the best, E.
I knew that you would like it, Etienne. Ruthenium guilloché dials and platinum cases are a winner cocktail.
The RDM in the GT case was not bad, either! Best, Nicolas
I remember this watch well
I have always liked it ever since you brought this watch to my attention years ago.
