(Store manager, Stephanie M. and co-worker Jason G.)Earlier this month I visited the Jaeger-LeCoultre flagship boutique in Beverly Hills. The store is modest in size, like many boutiques, but the assortment is not. This store has the most complete Jaeger-LeCoultre collection in country (the only JLC run boutique in North America). Including some exclusive "boutique only" timepieces. This boutique is right off of Rodeo Drive, sitting in between Richemont owned Panerai and IWC, in one of the most exclusive zip codes in the country, 90210. Within the immediate proximity there are also Breguet, Omega, Chopard, Chanel, Gucci, Cartier and LVMH boutiques. For my visit, I met with boutique manager Stephanie Moulard. She is extremely friendly and very knowledgeable. I suggest contacting her if you have any purchase questions regarding Jaeger-LeCoultre timepieces. (Contact info below.) Stephanine presented to me about ten watches from the collection. The "boutique only" platinum Duom��tre Chronograph, featuring dual movements, was my favorite. The Reverso Squadra Polo Fields Worldtimer/Chronograph was very impressive as well. I will post some photographs and impressions of the Duom��tre, Extreme Tourbillon, Master Compressor Alarm "Valentino Rossi" and two Reverso watches - throughout the week.

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:
