Jaeger-LeCoultre just informed me that they will be releasing a new book called "Extreme Watches for an Extreme World" dedicated to the lovers of fine watch***. It was produced in cooperation with Stephan Ciejka, editor-in-chief of Revue des Montres. Here is what J��r?me Lambert, CEO, Jaeger-LeCoultre has to say about the upcoming book: "Everything always begins with an adventure. The desire to discover, to overcome, to attain. How about setting off for a far-distant destination?... Wouldn't it be great to climb right to the top of that mountain?... Why not descend to the very depths of the ocean?... But adventure is not only about geography or sportsmanship. It can also be about inventing something truly novel, about creating, imagining, innovating. This book is dedicated to all adventurers, explorers and other conquerors of the impossible. It tells the story of challenges, efforts and triumphs. It also tells of a key element in many such feats: time."Read the full PDF Press Release here.Source: Jaeger-LeCoultre

The Jaeger-LeCoultre cult Reverso model was born in 1931. It featured a case that could swivel protecting the dial from possible impacts. Its back showed a personalized engraving. The Reverso watch was initially created for polo players, but in no time it became highly appreciated by general public. In 2011, to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Reverso, Jaeger-LeCoultre is pleased to unveil its new timepiece - the Grande Reverso Lady Ultra Thin watch. The new Reverso watch demonstrates reworked yet highly feminine proportions. The Reverso spirit is expressed via the case proportions, the gadroons, the chapter ring, the numerals and the hands. Each detail makes one feel the watch�s femininity, including the new softened and rounded cambered cradle or carrier and the new metal bracelet.The Grande Reverso Lady Ultra Thin watch is created to provide supreme comfort of wearing, having an ultra-thin profile. It is just 7.2 mm thick. It is light and gently curved. The guilloche silver dial of the Jaeger-LeCoultre watch is completed with applied numerals and hour-markers.It is not a secret that female creatures perceive their timepiece as an essential style accessory and enjoy unique details. The Reverso owner can personalize her watch by her initials, a unique drawing, or a secret symbol. The case (39mm x 24mm), sculptured in steel or 18K pink gold, accommodates a Jaeger-LeCoultre Calibre 846 mechanical manually-wound movement or a Jaeger-LeCoultre quartz movement animating the hour and minute functions. The mechanical movement, operating at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour, has been crafted, assembled and decorated by hand. The 18-jewel movement offers a 40-hour power reserve.Ladies who cannot resist diamonds will be seduced by the pink gold variation of the lady�s watch embellished with diamonds. The gems are presented in a horizontal or vertical pattern and the crown sparkles with a precious stone as the final touch of seduction. The Jaeger-LeCoultre Grande Reverso Lady Ultra Thin watch embraces a lady�s wrist with a leather strap available in a variety of textures and shades, or with a metal bracelet.Discover a fine selection of Jaeger-LeCoultre watches and clocks:
