Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Monoface with Smaller Case

Jaeger-LeCoultre introduces a new addition to its iconic Reverso collection with the Reverso Tribute Monoface, paying homage to the original 1931 design. This latest release, crafted in stainless steel, offers a more traditional case size, closely matching the dimensions of its vintage predecessor while incorporating modern refinements.Available with either an opaline silver or sunray blue lacquer dial, the new Reverso Tribute Monoface exudes timeless elegance, combining heritage-inspired design with contemporary craftsmanship.The rectangular case measures 40.1mm in height and 24.4mm in width, crafted in polished stainless steel, striking a balance between vintage proportions and modern design sensibilities. Its slim profile at just 7.56mm thick ensures that it slides comfortably under a cuff, enhancing its versatility as both a dress and everyday watch. It is a true nod to the heritage of the Reverso collection, with dimensions that closely resemble the original 1931 model. Flipping the case over reveals the hallmark reversible mechanism of the Reverso, a feature introduced to protect the watch face during polo matches. The back is left blank and polished, offering the opportunity for custom engraving, a timeless feature for those seeking a personal touch.The case design maintains the iconic Art Deco aesthetic of the Reverso series, with smooth edges and a soft curvature that lends the watch a subtle elegance. The case's rectangular shape is complemented by the signature horizontal gadroons that frame the dial, further reinforcing the distinctiveness of the Reverso's design language. Water-resistance can reach up to 30 meters (96 feet).The dial on these models stays true to the minimalist elegance that defines the Reverso collection, available in two striking variations: an opaline silver and a sun-ray blue lacquer finish. The opaline silver dial offers a refined, matte surface that subtly shifts between shades of white, gray, and silver depending on the light, providing a vintage-inspired look reminiscent of the original 1931 model. On the other hand, the sunray blue lacquer dial brings a more modern, vibrant aesthetic with a deep, glossy finish that enhances the watch’s contemporary appeal.Both dial variations feature sharp, dauphine-style hour and minute hands, paired with trapezoidal, non-luminous hour markers. These applied indices, along with the hands, are crafted in polished metal, adding a touch of sophistication and ensuring legibility despite the dial’s minimalist design. A detailed outer minute track frames the dial, giving it a sense of balance while subtly reinforcing the Art Deco influence seen throughout the Reverso series.The absence of any complications or distractions keeps the layout clean and focused on simplicity, as expected from a classic Reverso. The rectangular shape of the case harmonizes with the layout, while the blank reverse side of the case offers a canvas for personalization. Whether opting for the subdued opaline silver or the striking blue lacquer, the dial is a perfect reflection of the Reverso’s timeless elegance.
