Watch Description
The large-format case of the Reverso Classic Large Duo Small Seconds timepiece in steel boasts two dials for two time zones, driven by a single movement. An ideal companion for elegant travelers, it is equipped with a small front second dial that further enhances its charm.
Inspired by the Reversos created in the late 30’s, the Reverso Classic is the traditional expression of the rectangular icon. Its swivelling concept turns the reverse side into a second expression of time either with a second time-zone (Duoface) or simply another style (Duetto).
Featuring the original three-lined gadroons and 12 Arabic numerals, two-tone finished dials, and sword hands, the Reverso Classic offers a timeless design. Elevating its aesthetic codes, the inside of the cradle is finished with a circular graining, resembling the refined finishes that are also done on its calibre.

# Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Classic Duoface Small Seconds Review by A.I. WatchMetrics
## Watch Summary
The Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Classic Duoface Small Seconds is an iconic rectangular dress watch with a patented reversible case, featuring a silvered dial with small seconds on the front and an opaline dial for a second time zone on the reverse, powered by the in-house manual-wind Caliber 854A/2 offering 42 hours of power reserve, ideal for sophisticated collectors seeking timeless elegance and subtle dual-time functionality in a pink gold case.
## Overall Watch Rating: 9.4/10.0
**Brand Metric (9.7/10.0)** - Jaeger-LeCoultre's prestigious heritage and masterful craftsmanship place it alongside Patek Philippe in high-end luxury.
**History & Innovation Metric (9.6/10.0)** - The Reverso's 1931 reversible case patent and Duoface dual-dial innovation deliver legendary impact comparable to the most influential designs in horology.
**Dials & Design Metric (9.5/10.0)** - Exemplary Art Deco aesthetics with flawless lacquered dials and reversible ingenuity surpass even the most refined Cartier Tank executions.
**Material Metric (9.4/10.0)** - Pink gold construction with sapphire crystals and superlative brushing/polishing rivals the finest finishes from Vacheron Constantin.
**Movement Metric (9.3/10.0)** - The Caliber 854A/2's intricate dual-dial architecture, Geneva stripes, and reliable performance match A. Lange & Söhne's in-house standards.
**Rarity Metric (8.9/10.0)** - At around $21,000 retail with limited high-end production, it offers exclusivity akin to mid-tier Patek Philippe references.
**Versatility Metric (8.7/10.0)** - Its slim profile and dual faces make it suitable for formal evenings or business travel, outperforming typical dress watches like the JLC Master Control.
**Complications Metric (7.9/10.0)** - Small seconds and manual second-time-zone setting provide elegant utility similar to a basic GMT but in a thinner package.
**Functions Metric (7.5/10.0)** - Core timekeeping with small seconds and secondary hours/minutes delivers refined basics on par with high-end manual-wind dress watches.
