Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Monoface Small Seconds mechanical blue dial leather strap 45,6 x 27,4 mm

An absolute watchmaking icon enhanced by a sunray blue dial

A timeless icon born in 1931, the Reverso Tribute Monoface Small Seconds Q397848J pays homage to the original Art Deco design while dressing it in a sumptuous deep blue sunray dial. This Tribute interpretation combines classic elegance, balanced proportions, and contemporary refinement. Its reversible stainless steel case, meticulous finishing, and Manufacture hand-wound movement embody the creative excellence of the Grande Maison for more than 190 years.

The Reverso Tribute collection

Launched in 2016 to mark the 85th anniversary of the Reverso, the Tribute collection celebrates the heritage of this legendary model by reinterpreting the stylistic codes of the original 1931 Reverso. Faithful to the Art Deco aesthetic that shaped its identity, Tribute watches stand out with their dials in deep shades and sunray finishes, their Dauphine hands, applied indexes, and minimalist elegance.

While preserving the iconic reversible case, these creations offer a bold and contemporary touch, blending watchmaking tradition with modernity. Each piece pays tribute to Jaeger-LeCoultre’s savoir-faire and its unique ability to bring history and innovation into dialogue.

An intense and sophisticated blue shade

This deep blue, inspired by the elegant nuances of historic models from the 1930s, gives this Reverso Tribute Small Seconds a distinctive aura. Its sunray finish plays with the light to reveal the full richness of the colour, while the applied trapezoidal indexes and polished Dauphine hands add brilliance and refinement.

The 45.6 × 27.4 mm stainless steel case retains the harmonious silhouette and emblematic rectangular geometry of the Reverso. Its pure lines are enhanced by the signature horizontal gadroons, and its tapered lugs integrate seamlessly into the strap.

As always, the solid caseback provides an ideal surface for a personalized engraving, recalling the intimate and heritage-driven vocation of the Reverso.

A handcrafted Casa Fagliano strap

To enhance this piece, Jaeger-LeCoultre collaborates with the prestigious Argentinian bootmaker Casa Fagliano, renowned for its exceptional leathers. The blue leather strap, specially created for the Tribute line, combines refined texture with optimal comfort.

Thanks to the interchangeable strap system developed by the Maison, it can be quickly replaced to adapt the watch to any occasion.

A movement crafted for its case

Faithful to Jaeger-LeCoultre’s philosophy that a movement must follow the shape of its case, this Reverso Tribute Monoface Small Seconds is powered by the Manufacture Calibre 822/2 with manual winding.

This shaped movement, perfectly adapted to the rectangular case, stands out for its slimness, reliability, and exemplary finishing. Offering approximately 42 hours of power reserve, it illustrates the horological mastery of the Manufacture in Le Sentier, an absolute reference in the art of shaped watches.
