Jaeger-lecoultre Reverso Tribute Chronograph: Two watches in one
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 май 2023
- Jaeger-lecoultre had a good year at watches and wonders with the Reverso Tribute Chrono being the stand out model of their novelties. Two sides. A dress watch. A sporty watch. A banger of a watch. I dive into why I think that's the case...
Hope you enjoy! Let me know what you think - Cheers!

Proud to own the rose gold one. Really exquisite!
Lucky you 😊😊😊
Hi @brienchia! Congratulations on your JCL! May I ask what your wrist size is and does the reverso chronograph fit you well? Thanks very much.
@@ChetanAcharya yeah it fits me well, I think my wrist size is 17cm
@@brienchia thank you!
Thanks for the review. I am very close to pulling the trigger on this. I had the privilege of seeing this yesterday in the metal and it changed my perception of the brand. The price hikes are, dare I say it, warranted. Jaeger didn’t just raise prices and stick to the old playbook. They raised prices and upped their game
.
The chronograph looks bigger in gold than steel. Maybe it’s the polishing. Also the shade of blue dial is not a regular blue. It’s almost like an ocean blue. It’s a shade of blue I haven’t seen on a watch. The skeletonization is superb. And the feel of the pushers… words can’t describe how smooth they are. Everything Jaeger is known for shines through in this watch. Size is a bit of an issue, but from a sports watch perspective it fits smaller than a submariner
.
I don’t say this lightly when I say this is one of the best watches I have ever handled. This is the watch that changed my perception of Jaeger. (Btw the new tourbillon also happened to be in the shop and is otherworldly)
For the Reverso Chrono - I'd pay list price. That's all I can say, it's that good .😀😀😀
Bro you have nearly got me to the door of the JLC Boutique 😅… 👌👍
Lol. My sincerest apoligies. Stay home. Keep the credit card in the wallet 😂😂😂
Very happy to have found your channel. This was IMHO the very best commentary on this piece that I have seen - and I have been looking for and viewing reviews since it was released. Thanks - subscribed.
Welcome aboard 😃😃
This is absolutely brilliant. The content and the pace of your videos is incredible. On a binge watching session already. How have i not come across this channel before!! Subscribed. Thank you. Amazing watch as well
Wow! Thanks for the praise!!! 😀
I will do my best to keep it up and have you coming back for more 👍😀😀😀
Paid my deposit for this yesterday. Less than 6 mths to go!!!
Lucky you 😊
Your explanations, the way you describe watches is outstanding. And that split screen presentation with a lot of watch pictures is perfect!
Glad you enjoy 😀
Another great breakdown of this amazing release. Love my medium small seconds duo face and I’m so glad I got it before all the recent JLC price increases. Looking forward to more videos! 🍻
Doing my best and glad you enjoy them 😀😀👍
Just found this channel, absolutely love the commentary, great job with the breakdown here
Glad you enjoyed it!!!!
and also thanks for taking the time to write some feedback
👍😀
I'm very happy to have discovered your channel!! Excellent content explained with great fluency and a little wit too.
Happy to hear that! 😃
hello. I'm watching your channel from Japan. I've seen the real thing. It's so beautiful, it's more than just a chronograph, it's art. Japanese manufacturers are unlikely to be able to make it. Jaguar is the only manufacturer that does not compete with other watchmakers.
It's a stunning watch in the metal. Have had the priviledge of having the gold version on the wrist. It's an eyecatcher 😃😃
Great video. Totally love this watch.
Glad you enjoy it! 😀
My favorite watch released this year by far!! Can’t wait to see one in the metal. I have a Sun Moon Reverso (neo-vintage) with a display backside.. would love to add this one to the collection though (if possible). It’s stunning!! 🙌🏻
Spoke to the JLC guy and his answer was. There'll be a wait, but anybody that wants one will be able to get one... 😀👍
Best watch of 2023....full stop
So far. Absolutely! 😀
Thanks for this vid! Very well presented .. although you ruined the Reverso Tribute Monoface to me, which costs me another two years of waiting time 🤣
Thanks 😀😀
Great video ! Reverso just does not suit my wrist, but it is a watch I absolutely love. Its just amazing to be able to flip the dial and get a whole new look, be it from the lowest end or higher up. Just curious, how much fidgeting (flips) can it actually handle ? 2-5hundred thousand flips ?
Glad you enjoyed it!
Don't actually know how many flips it can take - My guess is they likely have a "flip test machine". Whenever I've had it serviced, the mechanism has always been fine 😀😀
I agree with everything. However, I do feel like the hands should have been blue. Seems challenging to tell the time on the skeleton dial
It's not the easiest - never is on a skeleton dial 😃
Easily the best release at W & W. Perhaps best-ever Reverso. And a well-considered conversation about it. Bravo. But I have 2 problems with it. On a 16cm wrist it's just too big (long, mostly) although there's as much going on inside the watch and that's why. I might sigh but frankly JLC's over the top recent price increases have made me look away. Those of us who are more enthusiasts than wealthy with piles of disposable money have been given 'the finger'.
Yeah. At 16cm this is a watch that's going to hand over the edge for sure. as to prices - everybody and their sister is going upmarket pricewise these days. Unfortunately. JLC included.🤦♂️
@@Mike.thiswatchthatwatch With pricing that's true but here in Australia we have seen say Tudor +12%, Cartier + 15% for example, and JLC on some models closer to 40%....a bad taste in the mouth.
40%!!! Damn that's steep. Living in the nordics, JLC has always been pricey so the jump here hasn't been that bad. 40%. That's ridiculous (and arrogant towards customers).... 😒
Cool watch. I love it. But it is not a combination dress\sports watch. It is a great dress watch with a cool party trick. Lawyers use watches like this to impress clients and the rest of us can use it to pick up quality strippers. But can you really use the thing to time a walk
un session, or for swimming? Nobody would. It is too fine, beautiful and delicate. Get the Reverso AND the Polaris. Simple.
Never knew a stripper that knew what a JLC reverso was.... Patek for sure. But a reverso. Nah... 😂😂😂
