Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Small Seconds

About This Watch

The Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Small Seconds with its captivating blue dial is a modern reinterpretation that honors the original 1931 design while incorporating contemporary color sensibilities. The rich sunray-finished blue dial creates a depth of color that shifts beautifully under different lighting conditions, paired with applied white gold hour markers and dauphine hands for excellent legibility. Powered by the manually wound caliber 822/A/2, this Tribute edition emphasizes the refined finishing of both dial and movement. The case retains the classic large proportions at 45.6mm in height, wearing comfortably on the wrist thanks to the slim 8.5mm profile. The small seconds sub-dial at six o'clock adds a touch of vintage charm. What sets the Tribute line apart from the Classic is the attention to dial finishing and the more dressy overall presentation. The blue calfskin strap is perfectly color-matched to the dial, creating a cohesive aesthetic. The Reverso's ability to be flipped over to protect the crystal — or simply to reveal a blank canvas for engraving — remains one of the most engaging mechanical interactions in all of watchmaking. This blue-dialed variant has become particularly sought after among collectors who recognize the Reverso as perhaps the most architecturally significant wristwatch ever designed.
