The story of this Reverso Squadra Classic
Born in the lineage of the Reverso creation initially conceived in 1931 to protect the watches of polo players, this Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Squadra Classic (ref. 236.8.47 / Q7068420) embodies Swiss watchmaking excellence. Since 1833, the Jaeger-LeCoultre manufacture has placed at the centre of its history flagship models of which the Reverso is one. Here, the Squadra line offers a more contemporary and almost vintage interpretation, with a pronounced rectangular case and an art deco style. This pre-owned luxury timepiece is aimed at lovers of Jaeger-LeCoultre watches looking for a characterful piece that is both refined and easy to wear on a daily basis.
Case, calibre and bracelet
The 31.2 x 45.5 mm steel case, reference 236.8.47 / Q7068420, features the unique characteristic of the pivoting Reverso case that protects the dial. This Jaeger watch asserts a taut rectangular design, close to a square case, with a solid engraved caseback recalling the sporting origin of the model. Calibre 657, the manufacture quartz movement, guarantees reliable precision without the constraints of an automatic movement, while preserving the sophistication of the timepiece. The legible white dial underscores the classic elegance of this Jaeger-LeCoultre, while the white Mississippiensis alligator strap fitted during the 2023 service combines comfort, quality and visual presence.
