The jlc duo reverso was the first luxury watch I ever owned. the next was a master geographic. I was recently in Dubai and stopped in at the jlc store to have a look at the timepieces. I was treated so kindly and given a tour of their shop and shown watches I'd never seen before. Tt the end of the short visit, the salesman noted the master geographic on my wrist and as I was leaving the store, he said, "Thank you for being an ambassador for Jaeger Le-Coultre." Pure class reminding me why love this watch brand.
went into a jlc store recently, didn't have one yet, but I was treated as if I was a well known returning customer. Ended up buying one, got a master calender chrono, really a delightful brand
I love this kind of 'understated show-off'. Classical and discreet on the front and dazzling on the back. These pieces are all more incredible than the other, and weareable still! I'm left without words...
Just when I’d finally given up the idea of a reverso at some point, you remind me exactly why I have to have one. My wife says thank you kindly. Well, through the awkward silences, I’m sure that’s what she was thinking.
Forget Rolex, forget Omega... AP and A. Lange & Sohnne.... to expensive... This watch fascinates me though, I simply love the beauty and elegance of the Reverso... and it's reasonably affordable while being unique. If I ever spend "big money" on a watch, my money will definitely go to JLC. Keep the great content coming and take care.
Hope not. Sometimes it's better to keep things in the dark, so to say, since we all have our own vision of what "mister watchfinder" looks like, no matter how he actually looks, it will be a disappointment.
There are only 11 of them; 10 for sale at 1.3 million Swiss Francs apiece, and one for the JLC museum. Watch finder and JLC may both be in the Richemont group, but that would be a big ask.
Beautiful! The Watches and Wonders 2021 Reverso Hybris Mechanica Calibre 185 (Quadriptyque) makes these look like basic swatches. It has a flying tourbillon, perpetual calendar, crystal gong minute repeater, draconic cycle indicator (eclipse), anomalistic cycle indicator (super moon), and moon phases for both southern and northern hemispheres. All for a cool 1.35 million Euros.
To be honest I don't believe they are underrated at all, but I do understand 100% why you say that. Really it's just an illusion because actually it only appears to be underrated since nobody ever mentions or highlights it like you see everywhere with Rolex and tag sponsorship everywhere such as an F1 race, so all you hear is people talk about how awesome they're Rolex or patek Philippe is and how you just can't get better than that. But truth is we in the know, the true watch lovers, are the only ones that really even know and have an understanding of what genius these JLC complicated reversos are. I actually just look at it from the point of view of that is just something special we keep ourselves and the ordinary everyday people wouldn't even be able to understand what's involved in engineering or something master class as these timepieces. I'd say it's meant to be this way since the production of only 500 is very low compared to the millions of submariners and speedmasters that are somewhat Mass manufactured losing what makes something unique and special
I would dare say these watches are even better that the top 3 brands and Lange all together..These are not just a display of the ability to make complications..but to organize and design complications in a characterful way and with style
I’m just going to rewatch this vid 50 more times tonight. The Reverso by itself is incredible but with things like Tourbillons and Perpetual Calendars - wow!
I've had my GT Duoface for more than a year now and I still fall in love with it every time I strap it on! It is by far the most Beautiful watch I've ever owned, with my Seiko Laurel in silver and gold close behind, but these are on another level
I saw this year's fantastic Reverso , but was unaware of these. Just goes to show why JLC is the watchmakers watchmaker. A great video as always..thank you.
These six Limited Edition Reversos are a tribute to ingenuity, inventivness, eternal beauty and fine art of wristwatch craftsmanship ! As is the video, too !
Wow! Such a unique and interesting learning lesson about the reverso history...as a reverso lover I didn't know all those amazing timepiece..I wish it would be possible to purchase one of them...thanks for this great video !!
The Jaeger LeCoultre Reverso is a beautiful timepiece. I had owned a 1997 model that was an 18K gold tank in a stainless carriage with a black crocodile strap. A criminal owns it now or they sold it. It was stolen along with several other great timepieces including a LeCoultre alarm clock, a LeCoultre Wristalarm, three Omegas, an IWC, a micro rotor automatic Hamilton, even a Snoopy model where a tennis racket and tennis ball displayed the time on a blue Jean background, also the very first Swatch Watch produced. It was a very sad day indeed. 🥺
I’ve always known about JLC but in the past few years and after seeing a few of your videos, I’ve become a serious fan. I doubt I’ll ever own one - certainly not one of these - but I now regard them very much as a grail watch. At a time when Rolex makes a tiny tweak to the script on the face or a slight change to the level of polishing to justify the annual price increase, these guys are just getting on with real watchmaking. And that impresses me a lot more.
O wish there was a way to really convey here how unbelievable incredible are your videos! These watches are amazing. Truly amazing. And the copywriting, out of this world.
I previously watched one of your videos and was so amazed at the presentation you do but the watches you feature are mind-blowing to say the least. This video was totally enjoyable and totally a big WOW! These watches are beyond beautiful, the craftsmanship is out of this world. I am a big fan of certain watches and these were outstanding.
Those close ups revealed a lot of defects with the finishing. I actually lost the count after seen so many. A lot of rough edges and small stain on the dial. When I look at these ultra expensive watches I expect Perfection.
@@DirtFather407 They are nice but on their website it seems like they don’t really like to try new things. Am I wrong? I don’t know a lot about watches.
Of course……historically it’s a sports watch……but now it has crossed the path to become a dress watch…….but it’s ur watch, u can wear it they way u want…….I still wear it as a casual watch and don’t give a rats ass about those who say oh it’s a dress watch.
Another example of how superior positions involve the physical possession of gold vs. crypto gold or those futures managed by those WHO don't have physical gold.
Put my deposit down for the Reverso Tribute Nonantième. Can't wait. Amazing customer service, shipping directly from HQ. Absolute legend of a Brand. No Hype, Just pure Watch making.
Pieces like these really make me believe that JLC should displace or at least join the big three. I guess you could argue that JLC is a one trick pony with the reverso and has high quality side pieces, but this video shows the reverso is more interesting, capable, and diverse than the royal oak, at least
I suspect that I'm going to get criticised for this view, but personally I think that the Reverso is a FAR superior watch to the Cartier Tank. Both have great build quality and heritage, but the Reverso is just better all round. Managing to fit a double sided movement into a case so thin is incredible, and the dial quality is absolutely fantastic, that guilloché work on the 'Day' dial is superb! The only aspect where I think that the Tank has the edge is the design of the crown. That blue cabochon spinel is pure class!
Got a speedmaster sapphire sandwich last year for Christmas. Best present ever. My next watch I want to get myself is definitely a JLC. Would love a perpetual Calendar, but not sure if my budget will stretch that far
Great video and these watches are awesome with style, substance and soul and not hyped which means is good for watch lovers. Still pretty expensive though. Thanks again for the video.
Thank you for providing these astoundingly wonderful stories.. when I first started to listen, I thought this was going to be more about J P Journe magic .. I'd love to hear more about JPJ

We've seen a lot of treasures here over the years, but this one was really special.
Couldn't agree more. This one is already saved in my playlist, in case anyone asks me why do I love watches so much.
I can't wait until they do a video on JLC's 2021 release. It basically contains all of these complications in one watch.
@@omg_stoppit How???
@@saamsaam334 lots of money and time. They're insanely expensive. It has 4 faces.

went into a jlc store recently, didn't have one yet, but I was treated as if I was a well known returning customer. Ended up buying one, got a master calender chrono, really a delightful brand
No wonder JLC is known as the watchmakers’ watchmaker! These are some truly stunning pieces!!

6 watches in one ...or maybe 12....best episode ever...👏👏👏
Just when I’d finally given up the idea of a reverso at some point, you remind me exactly why I have to have one. My wife says thank you kindly. Well, through the awkward silences, I’m sure that’s what she was thinking.
The watch equivalent of a mullet, business in the front, party in the back. Also super stylish.
These Reversos are mind blowing. I had no idea they made grand complications such as these.

Totally agree.
Vacheron ?
I really hope that someday we get to see the face behind the legendary voice!
It's a mystery well kept, unfortunately 😕I don't think the camera will go reverso any time soon 😉⏰⏳
@@larsstougaard7097 "...the camera will go reverso..." LOL, good one.
Hope not. Sometimes it's better to keep things in the dark, so to say, since we all have our own vision of what "mister watchfinder" looks like, no matter how he actually looks, it will be a disappointment.
I saw his nose in the reflection cast by a particularly well-polished Patek case back..... It was like staring into the sun.
we have seen his face thru the reflection of a watch before, i just remember that he is bearded
Idk how long we are going to wait to see the review of reverso Quadriptyque here.
Ffs how are they "underrated"
I'm waiting...
There are only 11 of them; 10 for sale at 1.3 million Swiss Francs apiece, and one for the JLC museum. Watch finder and JLC may both be in the Richemont group, but that would be a big ask.

definitely one of the most exciting episode of all time on the channel. what a marvel.
Truly remarkable timepieces. JLC always make the impression that they have a lot of watchmaking fun and passion, love it!
I still can’t stop thinking about that Omega Worldtimer....
Prior to watching that video I had never paid any attention to the Omega Worldtimer and now I’m in love with it
Honestly facts
I get socks for birthday.
Maybe it is because you are not 60 yet ?
Great video. In a world of unbridled Rolex hype, the reverso is criminally under appreciated

Didn't think I liked the Reverso...but now I do 😍 Ridiculously clever, understated and classy.
Superb video, thank you 👍🏻👍🏻
One word ... wow !!!
Love the Reverso, but under macro, there seems to be an inordinate amount of 'matter' on display.
If there was ever a justification for an "application piece", this is it! These beauties should never be separated.
The JLC tourbillon has been on my wishlist since years now, still one of the nicest tourbs out there!
is that a flex?
or humble brag?

@@juicedupjunkie2324 its a dream for now. But working towards it. 👍
@@KC-bv9kf exactly. 👍
This is extra special. I can’t believe how much I want all of these. JLC really is the absolute daddy! 👍👍👍
JLC’s craftsmanship is really outstanding under your closeup lens...well done!
Elegant and extremely intriguing watches. Now we know exactly why this company is a watchmaker of watchmakers.
Super video as always.
I'm waiting for my lottery money to come, once my money come, I'll buy all these reversos!!!
congrats on winning
How much you win?
@@unpopularfacts4461 I mean I wouldn’t ask that
Still dreaming, was hoping dream come true. Ha.
I have the same dream
Each of these Reversos are absolutely gorgeous. I’ve always been a fan, but these are high level
Never in my whole life, have I been more amazed.
Thank you so much for this video.
Fantastic review. Love the power reserve indicator and central date hand on the Reverso. Simple but very stylish.
Would love to see a review of the magical 976! Chapeau on the series. No one can better the style and class of Watchfinder&Co
I've had my GT Duoface for more than a year now and I still fall in love with it every time I strap it on!
It is by far the most Beautiful watch I've ever owned, with my Seiko Laurel in silver and gold close behind, but these are on another level
I saw this year's fantastic Reverso , but was unaware of these. Just goes to show why JLC is the watchmakers watchmaker. A great video as always..thank you.
truly a masterpiece of engineering
There's nothing quite like a skeletonised JLC Reverso. Just ethereal.
In the 1990's as a teen I heard my dad raving about these but I couldn't appreciate the cleverness and savoir faire. Neat.
An absolutely fantastic journey into the hallowed history of this timeless masterpiece of a watch. Cheers!
These six Limited Edition Reversos are a tribute to ingenuity, inventivness, eternal beauty and fine art of wristwatch craftsmanship !

But there are so many reversos which one do you want
@@Dsnipez18 JLC Reverso Tribute duoface moon for me please jajajaja

I'm not generally a big Reverso fan, but these are hugely cool. Great video, as always.
Another great video! Love the B-Roll and the close ups! Very informative!
Those close ups are very revealing. Too many things that are wrong
Reverso Hybris Mechanica Calibre 185 Quadriptyque is A master of the master pieces...♥
Waiting for It.
Forget the watch have you seen the box! (Bit harsh watch is a master piece)
The Jaeger LeCoultre Reverso is a beautiful timepiece. I had owned a 1997 model that was an 18K gold tank in a stainless carriage with a black crocodile strap. A criminal owns it now or they sold it.

Think of the epic chad who owns one example of each of these. He's out there and he's awesome.
very likely a boring old businessman lol, let's be real
Chad wears invicta, thinks it’s a rolex. Gf’s don’t care.

Yeah looks worse than a Seiko 5
Also saw some imperfections on the seconds hand at 2:48
Always wanted a reverso not so sure now
To reach perfection is impossible and even if so, it will never trump charme and style.

In the grand scheme of things, Rolex is entry level luxury.
JLC Reverso is the only watch that started as a sports watch and end up as a dress watch but still is as popular as ever before.
it is still a sports watch of course, it will never be a dress watch.
@@BPFACTS88 I don't see a lot of people wearing their Reverso to any kind of sporting events, more wear it on suits than shorts and t shirts.
@@BPFACTS88 Nope, Reverso transcends that. It is a dress watch, and most people will agree.
Of course……historically it’s a sports watch……but now it has crossed the path to become a dress watch…….but it’s ur watch, u can wear it they way u want…….I still wear it as a casual watch and don’t give a rats ass about those who say oh it’s a dress watch.
2021 Reverso is something from other planet .
One of these masterpiece is my last of holy grails. I am just indecisive on my pick.
Beautiful explanation and a high-quality video, bravo!
Review the JLC Reverso Hybris Mechanica next.
Another example of how superior positions involve the physical possession of gold vs. crypto gold or those futures managed by those WHO don't have physical gold.

What a genius minds able to create such a beautiful machine.

Honestly, there are two brands that are closest to my heart, Lange and JLC.
Same here, just in a slightly different order: ALS, Breguet, JLC.
These watches are mind-blowing.
So what the Spring Drive took almost 3 Decades!
Amazing!!! Thanks for the clear but impressive information...
Awesome wrist watch ! I love it !
