Iconic design

Reverso Collection

The legendary "Reverso", Latin for "I turn" in Art Deco design, was launched in 1931. Its fold-down case to protect the delicate glass has its origins in the sport of polo.

Legendary watch movements

Jaeger-LeCoultre

Founded in 1833 in the Vallée de Joux by the brothers Charles-Antoine and Ulysee LeCoultre, the brand was the first to scale watch production in the famous watchmaking valley of the Jura mountains and soon employed over 500 master watchmakers. They were well known for producing excellent movements and parts and supplied well-known brands such as Patek Philippe. Fascinated by the flat movements of the Frenchman Edmund Jaeger, the two Manufactures merged in 1937 and launched the Jaeger-LeCoultre success story.

In the right time

Rocket Science

For a brief moment, I seriously considered starting this short article with a scientific treatise on the production of carbon fibers. However, given my rather limited abilities in the natural sciences during my school days, I immediately abandoned this idea and instead turned my attention to the things that move us all on a daily basis. Watches.

The return of the 80s

Everything comes back. At some point. Even my grandmother knew that and the more mature you become, the more you realise: damn, it really is like that. When Rolex presented the GMT-Master II as a yellow gold and bicolour version on a Jubilé bracelet last year, I immediately felt something like my own personal Werthers Echte moment. Only not with gold-wrapped caramel sweets, but with the watches I knew from my childhood. And so I still remember, as if it were yesterday, the picture of TV legend Horst Tappert smiling at me from the cover of a TV magazine with a gold GMT on a Jubilee bracelet.
