OVERVIEW
UNFOLD THE CHIMING STORY
The new timepiece is distinguished by dials on both the front and reverse sides, bringing a fresh visual expression to the timeless Reverso design, as well as to the minute repeater mechanism itself. While the dials both display the same time, they are very different in character – one exuberant, the other more sober. Both are a testament to the beauty of fine movement decoration and the exceptional level of craftsmanship that resides within the Manufacture.




DESIGN
BEAUTY LIES IN THE DETAILS
While the exuberance of the front dial contrasts with the rectilinear geometry of the Reverso case, the relative sobriety of the reverse dial echoes and amplifies those straight lines.
CHIMING SPECTACLE
The front dial is entirely skeletonised, revealing the full complexity of the repeater mechanism and presenting a mesmerising display of moving parts when the repeater is activated. Beneath a large bow-shaped bridge that sweeps from 11 o’clock to 7 o’clock, the components appear almost to be floating in three dimensions, the sense of visual depth and transparency enhanced by faceted indexes that are cantilevered from the chemin de fer minutes track. With a gleaming golden finish, the bridge, hour markers, gongs and several other components perfectly match the colour of the rose-gold watch case.

WATCHMAKING REFINEMENT
The verso contrats and offers a relative sobriety. Vertical Côtes de Genève stripes extend over the entire height of the main plate, which also serves as the dial. Showcasing the timekeeping mechanism, with subtle colour accents provided by blued screws and golden hands and hour markers, the cool silver tone of the metal provides an elegant counterpoint to the warm rose gold of the case.

THE PERFECT TUNING OF NOTES
Jaeger-LeCoultre was a pioneer in the tuning of gongs by refining the thickness of each gong rather than its length. Producing the most melodic tunes, this new generation of harmonic gongs continues the long list of innovations and patents that makes Jaeger-LeCoultre the Sound Maker.
HERITAGE
TIMELESS STORIES SINCE 1931
Ninety years ago, Jaeger-LeCoultre created the Reverso, an ingenious solution for polo players who wished to protect the glass of their watches while playing matches. With its swivelling case and distinctive Art Deco lines, it became a classic of 20th-century design.

CALIBRE
THE SOUND OF THE VALLEY
Embodying technical advances such as Jaeger-LeCoultre’s patented trebuchet hammers, silent regulator and a new generation of gongs, the Reverso Tribute Minute Repeater is powered by the Calibre 944 – a movement entirely conceived, designed and produced within the Manufacture.
