The Reverso by Jaeger-LeCoultre is an icon in its own right. However, while a superb part of horological history in its original, time-only configuration, it is also a magnificent canvas for the brand to show its considerable technical prowess. That is precisely what they have done with the new Reverso Tribute Minute Repeater. Jaeger-LeCoultre has significant experience with this type of complication, as since its founding, they have developed and built over 200 different chiming calibers. In 1994 they launched the Reverso Répétition Minutes, for which they miniaturized a minute repeater to fit a Reverso, making the world’s first rectangular minute repeater movement in the process.

Within the rich heritage of Jaeger-LeCoultre, the Reverso holds a unique place. Born in 1931, it was a purposely build sports watch with an elegant side. Its unique swiveling case could protect the then still fragile glass covering the dial from impact during a polo game. While initially a men's watch, ladies adopted the style not too long after. As this was the height of the Art Deco period, watches were worn in very elegant ways, and one of the most stunning was where the case of the watch was attached to the wrist by a silk rope. Jaeger-LeCoultre brought back that style, yet now in a most precious version. It replaced the silk rope for gold and set it entirely with diamonds, highlighting a precious part of their heritage.

Watches & Wonders was a great success, even though it was with the exception of the event in Shanghai, a virtual event. The watch brands quickly adapted to the new reality and dazzled from abroad through the digital channels. What, fortunately, didn't change was the vast amount of amazing watches that they introduced. For men, but also for ladies, there are plenty of new models to choose from. A current trend for women's watches is that mechanical movements are the new standard, of course, accompanied by a generous dash of elegance.

While digital, Watches & Wonders 2021 kicks off immediately in high gear, showing that the industry is still strong, even during a pandemic. Many exciting new watches have already been introduced, of which the following five in particular caught our eye:

In 2021, Jaeger-LeCoultre is celebrating the 90th anniversary of the Reverso. This is an event many are looking forward to, as this watch is a true icon. Over the years, it has been available as an ultra-slim two-hander but also housed some of the most complex and innovative movements ever created by Jaeger-LeCoultre. This means that the expectations for the anniversary, which will be celebrated without a doubt with some impressive new models, are high. Jaeger-LeCoultre is already whetting the appetite by launching the Reverso Tribute Duoface Fagliano.

Staying power is something that every watch brand hopes for when they launch a new model. Achieving this is far more complicated than it might seem at first. Many new models will be tweaked in their design within a relatively short period after their launch, while others ride a wave of fashion only to be discontinued as this wave is taken over by another one. Only with a rare few, the passing of time doesn't seem to get a hold of them. They have become icons for their respective brands, and benchmarks for the rest of the industry. But that doesn't mean that they did it by merely being idle.

It was an epic night again in Hollywood, as the 77th edition of the Golden Globes took place. The show was hosted once again by British comedian Ricky Gervais, and proved to be a big night for Quentin Tarantino, as his 'Once Upon a Time....in Hollywood' took home the awards for best musical or comedy, supporting actor and screenplay.

As any athlete (or spectator) can tell you, a few seconds can make all the difference between winning and losing in sports. So it’s only natural that professional sports have shaped the horology landscape with watches built specifically for use during competitions.

The Reverso Tribute Gyrotourbillon is a unique watch in many ways, and even in the extensive Reverso collection, it is one that stands out. This is of course due to that unique complication: the Gyrotourbillon.

By Roberta Naas The Art Deco era was a heady time of high society events and grandeur that permeated every aspect of life. For the wealthy, it was a time of great acthitecture, great fashions and incredible jewelry and accessories. The Roaring Twenties brought about a new expression that led from the florals of Nouveau to a stunning period of geometrics and elegance. Today, top watch brands emulate that look in art-deco inspired watches that make dramatic statements on the wrist. Here we bring you a look at half a dozen stunning
