Jaeger Lecoultre Reverso Gran Sport Chronograph.
That was the second Reverso Chronograph, after the Rose Gold from 1996. The Gran Sport Chrono was issued some 5 or 6 years after, in a daring design. The case was a bit bigger than the famous GT case, much thicker, with two different dial versions, white or black, and you had the choice between yellow gold and or the steel case.
The movement was the same than the one housed in the rose gold version, but not in 14 Kt gold.
On a rubber strap or on a bracelet.
THAT was a character!
Best,
Nicolas

What are the dimensions of this beauty?
Anybody has a pic next to any other watch to get the feel for the true size? And how it’s wearing?
Wow this pieces looks amazing! Do the pushers change in utility
When you have the non-chrono side showing? Do you use the pushers when time/date is displayed?
My thoughts are these…
I don’t think JLC needed to reproduce the “running/stopped” function, but I’m a guy who likes a date for daily wear. I do think JLC stands a chance to make their money back now. JAW reported back in 2006, after the GS Chrono was retired that JLC’s investm...
I quite liked this model but….
the rubber strap always reminded me of a new bar of plasticine :-D
