Top 10 Introducing the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Tourbillon Chronograph 25th Anniversary Replica Watches Young Professional

The bracelet is not quite a beads-of-rice design and personally reminds me of Sinn’s excellent 5-link bracelet, but with a few differences. The middle three links are skinnier than the outer two. Additionally, these 3 links are brushed while the outer links are polished. Obviously, Jaeger-LeCoultre has designed the end-link to sit flush with the case. In general, I think this gives the watch a brand new appearance and is practical too. World timers are designed to be worn by globetrotters and an alligator strap (that is what the watch is usually shipped with) does not always do well in humid, tropical climates. A bracelet is better equipped to cross time zones and different climate types. The buckle on the bracelet nevertheless, is not to my liking and looks a bit outdated. I think a double butterfly clasp-style buckle would have satisfied this bracelet better.A universe timer isn’t really a daily wear opinion rather than one which is mainstream in allure. A deceased seconds complication in addition to that means that only a collector protected enough in their own tastes and knowledge of watches is very likely to wear you. But if you do happen to enjoy world timers and enjoy any unusual mechanical sophistication to your timepieces, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Geophysic Universal Time is a pretty compelling offering. Watch buyers are getting to be increasingly discerning and sophisticated. They no longer just need a well-made, handsome watch. They need exclusivity and the capability to customize a watch to their preferences, and that’s why the Jaeger-LeCoultre Atelier Reverso program was born. Unveiled last year as part of this Reverso’s 85th anniversary, the Atelier Reverso program allows watch fans to personalize their Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso with dozens of dial up and strap choices. According to Jaeger-LeCoultre, a shocking 5277 combinations are possible.

Originally designed for polo players, with a swivelling case to protect the crystal, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso is 85 years old in 2016. The occasion is being marked with the introduction of a slew new Reverso wristwatches that will make their official debuts at SIHH 2016. Starting with the basic Reverso Classic (available in three sizes no less), the line-up also includes variants of the Reverso Duo twin time zone, including the Reverso Tribute Calendar powered by the new calibre 853.

Reverso Classic

The simplest model is the Reverso Classic, available in small, medium and large sizes. All three show only the hours and minutes, just like most vintage Reversos.

The Reverso Classic small is quartz, while the medium and large sizes are equipped with the automatic calibre 965. Case backs are blank and ready for personalisation. Available only in steel, dimensions are as follows:

Small – 21 mm wide and 34 mm long

Medium – 24.4 mm wide and 40 mm long

Large – 27.4 mm wide and 45.6 mm long

Pricing has yet to be revealed, but based on equivalents in the current collection, expect the large to be about US$7600, medium to be about US$5650 and around US$4450 for the small.

Reverse Classic Large Duo

The most practical use of both sides of the Reverso case, the Duo shows twin time zones with two dials. This has the automatic calibre 969 inside, showing home time with a 24-hour display on the front and local time on the back. The movement is used for the first time in this model; most of the other dual faced Reverso movements are hand-wound.

The case measures 28.3 mm in diameter, with a length of 47 mm, and is available in pink gold or steel. The hand-wound steel Duo from the current collection costs US$10,200, so this will come in a bit higher.

Reverse Classic Duetto

This is the dual time zone Reverso for ladies, offered in a small size with a hand-wound movement, or medium size with an automatic calibre. Both are available in pink gold or steel, each with the option of a matching metal links bracelet.

Expect a price of about US$11,000 in steel on strap, rising to about US$38,000 in pink gold with a gold bracelet.

Reverso Tribute Duo

Modelled on vintage Reversos with its baton markers and dauphine hands, a combination rarely found on the Reverso, the Tribute Duo is hand-wound with a dual time zone movement. The calibre 854A/2 shows local time on the white dial in front, and home back plus a 24-hour indicator on the dark blue dial on the reverse.

This is available only in steel, with a case that measures 25.5 mm wide and 42.8 mm long, making it significantly smaller than the Classic Large Duo.

The current Grand Reverso Ultra Thin Duoface with the same movement costs US$9650, so this will likely be priced about the same.

Reverso Tribute Calendar

The most complicated model in the new line-up, the Reverso Tribute Calendar is both a dual time zone and triple calendar wrist. The silver dial on the front shows local time as well as the day, date, month and phase of the moon, while the reverse indicates home time along with day and night.

Inside is the hand-wound calibre 853, a new calibre seen here for the first time. It’s hand-wound with a 45 hour power reserve. This is available only in pink gold, with the case measuring 49.4 mm by 29.9 mm, making this the largest of the new models.

For comparison, the price of the Grand Reverso Calendar is US$21,300, so expect this to cost more. Pricing has yet to be announced, but we will publish it as soon as it is.
