A Guide To
Jaeger Le Coultre Watches

The Reverso

Certainly one of the most famous watch lines ever produced, the Reverso is to men's Jaeger Le Coultre watches what the Oyster or Submariner are to Rolex: The trademark piece. Made popular by British army officers in the 30s who wanted a strong and sturdy watch that could survive the rough and tumble of a Polo game whilst also looking fantastic, this association would propel it to the front of every gentleman's mind at the time. As luck would have it, Jaeger Le Coultre created this watch as the peak of fashionability during an iconic time for design, and its classically Art Deco features make it a statement piece to this day, having undergone very few changes since then.

Jaeger-LeCoultre Duoplan

Jaeger Le Coultre is a brand that wears its history on its sleeve, and nowhere is that more apparent than in the creation of the Duoplan. While initially ladies Jaeger Le Coultre watches, the marque became popular with women due to its slim and sporty styling that fit better on the wrist than the chunkier cases produced by other brands - and there's a reason for that. As a famous owner of the watch the association with the tailor to the Royal Family 'Jack' Izod certainly did the brand no harm in its reputation among lady owners either. It's a venerable timepiece within the horologist's world at over 80 years old, but that just pays tribute to the longevity of the design which has managed to stand the test of time with very few updates.
