JLC - Jaeger-leCoultre Reverso Sun-Moon

Jaeger-leCoultre Reverso Sun-Moon

I can't speak to the price, but I really like the classic Reverso sun-moon iterations.

I personally find the florale numerals of the black-dialed version to be somewhat feminine, but it is a beautiful piece nonetheless.

The pink gold version has JLC's normal numerals and is also lovely.

Both pieces have a nice view of the movement from the reverse side.

For me the choice would come down to whether I prefer white metals vs. gold-colored metals. If white, then I'd have to be OK with the florale numerals. The dial aesthetics of the pink gold version are beautiful, so no issue there. Then consider that this is a smaller piece of the Reverso grand taille (GT) size. I personally think the GT size is excellent and retains elegance while not being too small, however, I wear my GT piece only under a long-sleeve shirt cuff as my impression is that it's too small to wear on a bare arm (my wrists are 7.00" - 7.25").

Good luck with your decision,

John

Dear Community, I am curious, what is your opinion about this Reverso watch in the title. I know, that it was last produced at the midle of the 2000's, and there was also a gold ( yellow or red ? I assume red ) version of the same watch too. Now I have th...

Interesting, what you have written about the floral numerals: yes, it seems a little bit feminime.. But I have discovered it only after you wrote it.. Regarding the size, the watch was already on my wrist and I personally already own the same sized Revers...

The rarest is the platinum.

If I remember correctly only 125 pièces were made. WG and RG were produced in equal numbers or almost. Best, Nicolas

Thanks for your info, Nicholas!

Do you know the approx. numbers for the other versions? Was the platinum version limited? The others were not, as far as I know.. Yours, Adam

The Pt is limited to 125 pieces. My guess is that there were approximatively 1000 RG and

By: amanico : June 16th, 2015-12:12

Same numbers for the RG. Hard to seriously tell, since JLC doesn't communicate on no LE productions. Best, Nicolas

Thanks, Nicolas!

I think it is very hard to find nowadays a NOS, NEVER USED exemplar.. Yours, Adam

Well, the first time you will wear it, it won't be never used anymore.

By: amanico : June 16th, 2015-13:51

And since you buy watches to wear them... No need to get a NOS one. Best, Nicolas

Agreed, plus there's the service question.

By: Tim_M : June 16th, 2015-20:04

Hi Adam, New old stock is far less important than total condition, accessory set completeness, and your true depth of interest in the watch. For example, would this watch still intrigue you as deeply if a fellow collector were offering it used? Do you lov...

I do agree

By: Tyo : June 17th, 2015-02:48

with the thoughts of the other, I have been lucky enough to find a NOS Polaris, I bought it because I wanted one since the watch was released but at this time I was student . The watch stayed 6 or 7 years in this AD. If you want it, buy it..... if you can...

Disagreed and agreed at the same time:

By: Speedie74 aka Mr. Torquise : June 17th, 2015-08:20

I have already written, that the watch comes from my AD. It means, that it has all its original boxes and papers, and I also get a two years warranty after the purchase. So there won't be a warranty issue at all, only after the two years period expired. A...

Well, I am a kind of person,

who wears his watches only with great attention to them: I never use them on the beach, in the water, even if they have a stainless steel bracelet or rubber strap. I like to know it, that I am the first owner of it and never make the case repolished or ev...

The numbers...

By: watchme : June 17th, 2015-06:34

can be debated as "feminine," but I disagree. This dial, if I recall correctly, was hand-painted, and the curvature of the numbers was beautifully painted, so, given this "fact" (if it is so), I think they are gorgeous and NOT feminine. I don't recall it ...
