‘Reverso Stories’: a fascinating retrospective and a new launch
‘Reverso Stories’ takes visitors on a compelling journey to discover the history, craftsmanship, innovation and design behind this watchmaking icon through four chapters – Story of an Icon, Story of Style & Design, Story of Innovation and Story of Craftsmanship. It is illustrated by a collection of emblematic Reverso models, from rarely seen archive timepieces, modern-day High Jewellery and miniature-painted models to highlights of the current collection, along with the world’s first wristwatch with four functioning faces, the Reverso Hybris Mechanica Calibre 185 ‘Quadriptyque’.
Alongside the exhibits, a live demonstration of the decorative art of perlage will give visitors insight into an element of the watchmaking process rarely seen by the public.
Jaeger-LeCoultre has also chosen the Sydney edition of ‘Reverso Stories’ for the global launch of three exceptional new limited-edition Reverso watches that showcase the skills of enamelling, gold-leaf paillonage and gem-setting mastered by the Manufacture’s in-house Métiers Rares™ (Rare Handcrafts) atelier.
