Watch Description

The Jaeger LeCoultre Reverso Art Deco Q277.34.60 was introduced in 2000, and references the art deco reverso of the 1940's.

 

The Jaeger LeCoultre the Art Deco is a basic three-hand watch using JLC's now-midsized 26x42mm GT case. This model is now discontinued, but was produced with white gold as well as the present pink gold case, both with pink- plated movement. From the front, this is among the simplest and most traditional of Reversos. Sword hands, matching hour markers and a rectangular small-seconds dial dominate the face, along with a lovely circle of guilloche. The crown is partially recessed from the front view, and really there are just the 2 colors, lustrous pink gold and various shades of gray:
