Anya Taylor-Joy, the new face of the Reverso Classic Duetto

This year, Jaeger-LeCoultre has sought out a new face, a symbol of elegance. The Swiss watchmaker has chosen the talented actress Anya Taylor-Joy as a new ambassador. Let’s take a closer look at Anya Taylor-Joy, the latest Reverso Classic Duetto and the wonderful models that we carry at our GENEVE shops.

Anya Taylor-Joy and Jaeger-LeCoultre, a perfect match

Anya Taylor-Joy was born in Miami to Anglo-Argentine parents. She spent her childhood in Buenos Aires and London. You are likely to have seen her in critically acclaimed roles like in the series The Queen’s Gambit. She is also part of a family with close ties to Polo, and she herself is very interested in watchmaking. The actress perfectly embodies timeless elegance and multifaceted charm. For Jaeger-LeCoultre, there is no doubt that she is the epitome of the Reverso Classic Duetto.

The new Reverso Classic Duetto

The Reverso Classic Duetto timepiece is both elegant and brilliantly modern. It draws its inspiration from the codes of Art Deco style with its rectangular case, reversibility and iconic gadroons. The latest piece is a reinterpretation of a model from the late 1930s that features a similarly elegant, although completely different, style on the other side of the dial. This feminine watch has two sets of hands. It also features the three-lined gadroons, 12 Arabic numerals, two-tone finished dials and sword-shaped hands. The distinguished look is enhanced with the circular graining adorning the inside cradle. Two different perspectives offering incredible beauty and finesse to all who wear it.

Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso: the tale of an icon !

by Marine Heim

It all began in India in 1931 after a polo match.British officers challenged their friend, alias Jaeger LeCoultre, to create a watch able to withstand the shocks of their favourite sport, polo.The Reverso was born, having since become timeless.

The legend of the Reverso continues to captivate its enthusiasts, who were rewarded with an anniversary model to commemorate the 90th anniversary of this iconic watch by Swiss watchmaker Jaeger-LeCoultre. The basic principle was simple: a reversible case designed to prevent the glass on wristwatches worn by British polo players in India from breaking during polo matches. The Reverso, a timepiece created in the mid-19th century, reflected the Art Deco values prevailing at the time, i.e., elegance, universalism, understated aesthetics, a combining of simple geometric shapes, an affinity for handcraftsmanship, and an enthusiasm for playing and partying. Over time, the timepiece has become increasingly more customisable, thus attracting many male and female enthusiasts.

The Timeless Stories Exhibit in Paris

From 21 October to 24 December, JaegerLeCoultre is presenting the Reverso Timeless Stories exhibit in Paris on 15 Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré in the 8th arrondissement. This comprehensive exhibit focusing exclusively on the Reverso watch for its 90th anniversary explores the creative and cultural universe of this modern yet timeless watch through four themes.

Did you know ?

The brand name is pronounced differently depending on the country. For example, in France they say “Jeh-jair” for Jaeger; however, Jaeger is a German word and in Germany they would say “Yeh-ger”, a pronunciation that is in fact favoured by some employees and watchmakers at the company. But in the end, it is the French pronunciation that is most widely used in public speeches. So, long live “Jeh-jair LeCoultre !”

Rendez-Vous Moon Serenity

by Sanju

Las mujeres de Jaeger-LeCoultre tienen un encuentro con las fases lunares de este reloj de joyería de la manufactura de Le Sentier.

El reloj Rendez-Vous Moon Serenity está completamente revestido de azul y cuenta con una pantalla de fase lunar en nácar en un mapa celeste satinado. El fascinante azul de la esfera interior presenta delicadas subesferas doradas que brillan con luz, recreando las constelaciones de un cielo nocturno estrellado.
El bisel está engastado con 62 diamantes talla brillante. Cada piedra preciosa se selecciona cuidadosamente antes de encontrar el lugar perfecto para ella junto a las otras piedras en el escenario. Como una mariposa traviesa, una misteriosa estrella en movimiento recuerda el momento de una próxima cita. La estrella deslumbrante, discreta y traviesa al mismo tiempo, transmite el motivo para elegir el nombre del reloj y, por lo tanto, de la colección. El corazón del Rendez-Vous Moon Serenity late gracias a la precisión de su movimiento mecánico automático, Jaeger-LeCoultre Calibre 935, compuesto por 265 componentes que se pueden admirar a través de la caja de cristal de zafiro transparente. Los dos lados del reloj Rendez-Vous Moon Serenity en oro rosa son una invitación para emprender un viaje junto a las estrellas. A través de sus líneas puras y elegantes formas y materiales, este reloj encarna, en un estilo decididamente contemporáneo, la combinación refinada de los Métiers Rares® de la Grande Maison.
