The concept of the Reverso model was originally developed in India in 1931 to meet English polo players' need for an unbreakable watch.Set in a reversible case, the elegant timepiece managed to survive the harsh trials of the competition. Moreover, the lucky owner could personalize it by engraving his initials, family crest or some motto on the dial-protecting shield.Today, almost 80 years later, Jaeger-LeCoultre is happy to bring forth its new Grande Reverso Ultra Thin watch, which pays tribute to the famous edition of 1931.
