Among the slew of new green dial watches released this year, JLC also added a tasteful green variant of the Reverso Tribute Small Seconds. In this video, I'll take a detailed look at the new green Reverso to see how one of the best in the business takes on 2021's most popular watch trend.

I like the Archie way
I like to call it JLC
I mean if you wanna learn about the watches, why not learn the proper way of pronouncing the brand?
As I get older, and my tastes in watches become more dialed-in, the Reverso really stands out as a classy dress/sport watch. It's also more affordable than a "desirable" Rolex/Omega, and far more interesting.
EXCUSE ME WHAT LOL
MORE AFFORDABLE THAN AN OMEGA? 😂 THE OMEGA DRESS WATCH IS 2.5K THIS IS ENTRY LEVEL 10K AND MORE EXPENSIVE THAN STEEL ROLEX
agree to a certain extend. BUT will definitely challenge that "sport" point. Its a dress watch
i just bought the white color, last week.
still adjusting the wear and style.
hope it grows on Me.
While I feel like green is a trend for watch dials as of now, I for one am happy about it. In the case of JLC and the green reverso, I freaking love it! Sadly I will never be able to own one.
How is it anything you put on your wrist looks great! Thank you for the continued informative content and keep it coming Teddy.
I disagree about having to be a specific type of individual to wear this watch. I think dress watches should be worn more casually because they’re simply way too beautiful to be worn only when dressed up. I bet this watch would look amazing on blue jeans and a white t-shirt!
Agreed. I'm wearing a pretty good watch right now while dressed in track pants and a hoodie.
I wear my Reverso Tribute Moon in casual wear as well.
Yep, green dial and green strap would be a nice alternative to the classic silver dial and ostrich strap. Which IMO is still a great combo for a casual combination.
I wear my Reverso duoface with trainers, T shirt and shorts - changing to a quick release coloured suede strap
Totally agree with you, I wear my Reverso with pretty much anything, it's such a gorgeous watch it would be a shame to wear it only when I wear a suit.
Now do a JLC Reverso alternatives video. I'm on a budget 😆
Yup....we have champagne tastes on a kool-aid budget. You may want to look at the Longines Dolcevita, Hamilton Boulton, or Bulova Joseph Breton line.
Rotary Reverso.
Yes please
@@morgan97475 I already have a Longines and a Hamilton, but the Bulova with the Salmon dial has been on my radar.
@@triumph2013 Baume & Mercier Hampton might also be interesting for you
Prefer the tribute blue duo face as my favorite! Second is the blue. Wouldn’t go fir the red or green - I couldn’t pull off

The reverso silhouette is a classic. The green however, feels more of a trend.
I'm pretty sure future collectors would look to this era of watchmaking and see the green trend with fondness, considering that the watches that the green dial trend has produced are all pretty good looking. Especially when they would compare it with other watch trends of this era like the gaudy blinged out watches that rappers wear or that dreadfull AP Black Panther.
@@salim4270 oh absolutely true... My perspective is way more simplistic. Certain silhouettes and color blocking are just timeless, and simply more versatile for an average watch enthusiast. The Green dial is quirky yet subtle. But I don't see it as your first or primary dress watch, even for an eccentric collector.
Then again, a quick strap change and I might just do a 180 on my take ... 🤔😉🤫
@@aCrowsfeet That's true, but honestly I can see myself wearing a green watch as my main watch, especially if the shade of green isn't too flashy and if there are other details on the watch that doesn't turn the green color into the main feature. This JLC is an example of that. I also absolutely love that pistaccio green chronograph that Breitling released.
@@salim4270 those are both good picks tbt. I won't be surprised if I end up hunting for a green dial bucket list item by the end of this conversation.... 😄
@@salim4270 Your com was like the perfect description of "not looking like a Rolex Hulk" 😄
I love it. The colour looks natural on this watch.
Love the green Reverso. Heck, I'd take any of them! One of the extremely few rectangular case watches that I would love to own and wear.
I'm saying the Reverso is simply fascinating, no matter which model you're looking at. As for the green trend? Definitely an interesting one. As much as I prefer the blue color when talking about colored dials, I still say green can look nice too. I mean Seiko's Cocktail Time dials are just so nice and sharp. It'll definitely be interesting to see some more takes on green trend.
This is what I call a timeless design. It was beautiful when it came out in the past, it's beautiful today and it will be still beautiful also in 100 years from now. Amazing.
Wow now it's in green how ground breaking and original
Haha true. That said, the quadriptyque they came out with was so don’t go to hard on JLC.
Yet if they didn't produce a green dial they'd no doubt be accused of not keeping up with the trends or providing what customers want!?
You can't please everyone 🤷♂️
Green dials done well, like this reverso definitely has, will remain classics for a long time.
One of the most iconic watchmaker's watch in green dial now, nice. Appreciate the detailed review mate.
The green color is beautiful 🤩
It feels so good to have a reverso on my wrist while Im watching this 👌🏼👌🏼
Green reverso looks so good . It truly is the new blue 😍
Beautiful Watch Beautiful Man
Ha, GAYYYYYYYYYYYY
Gorgeous watch and as an Irishman I support the trend of green dials!!!🇮🇪🇮🇪😁
Beautiful watch, thank you Teddy, nice review. 👍
REVERSO IS JUST SOOO DANG CLASS!
I would love to see the green reverso with custom made rubber strap that fits perfectly in OG claps.
Would love to take it to the gym 🤘🏻💪
My absolute grail watch (though in a more traditional color). It oozes elegance, yet is sporty and compact. Brilliant 👍👍👍
Totally surprised by all the green releases in the same year. How do they come up with the same color at the same time. I never understood the same in fashion either.
Anyway - black or white: always classic; blue: good choice; burgundy: outgoing stylish; green: bites with all the shirts I have
Your videos have given me a lot of insight into the industry so thank you so much. I’m thinking of getting my first entry level luxury, a quartz (I know they’re slightly looked down on) Longines Conquest. Do you think this would be a good piece? I’m looking in the 1000 dollar range
My personal favorite is green
Love you work teddy
The reverso gives the term “timeless design” a whole new meaning. The watchmakers watchmaker will forever be my grail brand and/or grail watch.
The Reverso in green is one of the best Revesos eve released.
What do I think of green? I’m about to load up my submission for the giveaway with 3 green watches. That’s what I think about green lol
if they made this with a cream dial I'd buy one
Shocking quality strap!,,
And I mean SHOCKING!!!!!
Have the blue one. (And I'd still choose blue over red or green. Just me.)
Reverso is such a classic that it will continue to stand the test of time. I love mine, it’s probably my favourite, but I wondered if I should have got the blue Tribute rather than the classic small seconds medium. Not sure...what do you think @teddy?
I'm currently debating between the classic medium small seconds monoface and this green tribute 🤔
Tienen que se siempre los modelos pequeños., son los elegantes y sutiles, los grandes entorpecen los puños de camisas con gemelos., además parecen televisores
Longines recently released a green dial version of the Spirit too.
This was a good review.
Oh man, great video, beautiful watch, expensive, but interesting.
Very interesting and professional presentation! Thank you!!
Any square dress watch like this or the Cartier Tank gives me old New York wealth vibes. Definitely has its own attitude about it that I love but definitely couldn’t pull off. As for other JLC and Cartier models, I wish the Master collection was manual wound and I couldn’t pull off a Santos with how much I’d scratch the hell out of it. All great watches for the right person but sadly 2 brands that don’t work for me even though I think their watches are stunning and icons.
Aesthetically gorgeous, timeless design, brand pedigree, uniqueness... all in such a small package. Love the Reverso Tributes.
I think my personal favorite is the Burgundy.
I have always like these watches ⌚and green is my favorite.
Thank you Teddy another great review 👏👍
Welcome viewers, to the Classy side of TH-cam. ⌚😎
Regarding dress watches during “these times,” I love wearing mine (Nomos Orion) with sweat pants. Elegance has no boundaries, and it’s for me, after all.
Well said.
im a young guy, dress casual but I'm slowly starting to accept I like dress watches more than sport watches. That touch of class you get is underrated
I wear my rose gold duoface with sweatpants and sweaters all the time. It’s a solid look.
Personally, I like the blue and the burgundy, because I feel they are a little more timeless whereas the green limits the wearability. But, of all Reversos, I prefer the Dual Face.
For the giveaway does it matter if the watches say out of stock?
I think they nailed it with this colour, it is very much an Art Deco shade of green which is perfect for the year it originally came out
The green feels as it was always a part of the line up. Great looking watch.
First comment, greetings from Cappadocia - Turkey 🇹🇷
Thanks for watching! All the best from the US
Can anyone suggest a blue 40 mm dive watch for 1000 usd or less
I love the red burgundy as it matches with your lipstick 💄 color so much.
A 'smaller wearing experience' but a much fatter wallet. I vote for the blue dial, a real classic beauty.
Is this watch easy to get? Or do I supposed to be on a waitlist?
Nice video and congratulations on the June issue of WatchTime featuring… you! 🍻
Thank you 🙌🏻
i always wanted a square dress watch, something not to pricey. im thinking bulova
Maybe a longines dolce vita?
The Reverso is absolutely beautiful. Personally I love green dials. I generally like white, blue and green dials but not in any particular order. It's more the style and type of watch that suits a particular colour. If I were buying one of the Reverso models you've shown here, I would find it very difficult to choose between the green and blue.
Green? Boring! Try out pink. That's the color for this summer :)
By the way, I chose 3 watches and they all are 'more for less' as you said
Honestly wish I could pull this off but it’s just not for me. Reverso is a beautiful watch
I am intrigued by the reverso watch and am a big fan of JLC. What are your thoughts on the Galaxy (aka mystery dial) JLC?
I can’t describe how awesome it is to see more green on dials. For me, a lot of what defines what a watch means to me and the emotional connection I feel with it is the dial, and so I made a decision a couple years ago that I’d only buy a watch if I felt it’s dial truly interested me.
However, with many brands still using very conservative dial colours in most of their production models, it’s always felt as if my criteria would leave me empty handed. However, seeing this addition of green in many watches across the industry gives me a lot of hope lol.
P.S. for those wondering, the first real watch I bought in this commitment, and the one I continue to wear almost daily is the silver/blue cocktail time :)
JLC needs to make the tribute Reverso (same colors) in a smaller size as the original 41x24mm.
This is my favorite watch from Jaeger LeCoultre. The new green, red (burgundy) and blue dial colors look great. I am sure I saw one in brown many years ago.
These days, EVERYTHING is either "ICONIC" or "EPIC". A disgrace.
We will look back at these green dials (and red dials) as a “dated fad” in just 2-3 years...
why would a color be a fad? do you only own blue and black blazers?
I don't understand why people like this watch. It's just a bland old looking watch. 🤔
The red looks way better.
The green Streamliner beats all green dials and that’s a fact.
since they have stopped to built ultra thin and they have introduce new strap fagliano i am not intresting anymore by the trade.
even if they have done more than 1200 brevets of buit the most biggest manufacture i the world
I think this might be the best watch design ever..
Awesome!!!!
please just stop this green dial trend.... it'll look tacky in a few years... :(
You might be right!
Excellent review. Regards.
I don't know anyone who would own this watch, however, I don't hang with the crowd that would either...!!!
Be the first! Stand out from the crowd! Such an interesting watch, whatever the color of the dial.
Contrary to many people's opinions on the green dial trend, I'm pretty sure that this trend is going to be remembered fondly by future collectors. I can already see watch articles and videos made about this era calling it the "green phase" and vintage green watches being sought after.
Nothing compare to the duo face! 😱🤩
I wish it was smaller:(
Thanks great review
WOW very kool great info.1st class ,, AAAAAAAAAAA++++++++++++ again great video I liked it a lot keep up the great work
I wonder, who is making you so many video scenarios for so frequent shots. You upload several videos a week on both channels. Are toy having a scenario team for it? Best wishes!
I’d show case this JLC with a pair of old Dunlop green flash, a pair of grey faded Levi’s 501’s and a merino wool v- neck Ralph Lauren sweater in light evergreen.
Please tell us more about CARL F. BUCHERER, and his MANERO POWERRESERVE when you get a chance.
You’ve truly got a unique, locked in, individual lane with your videos man. No one is putting out videos even close to this quality. Keep killing it.
Nice video....Teddy, I know you guys smartly keep away from politics. However, what do you think about AP endorsing or being endorsed by BLM? I hate to bring this up, but I a seeing a trend that will destroy the famous and luxury images of these famous watches. I am of the opinion that these abundance of green dials is directly related to pushing the narrative of "climate change." I do believe that for the sake of cherished luxury, these famous watchmakers should do exactly like you and keep totally away from political influence. Your thoughts? Or can you make a video bringing this to attention? I can see these companies destroying themselves and I am sure you can help.
One of the most iconic and classiest watch references of all time! 90+ years in production, that's a grande feat on it's own.
The sexiest watch in the world, IMHO. You can disagree, of course. The only watch I want to own (but likely never will).

Greetings from Dubai. Wow what a nice video indeed. My wife and I were constantly discussing which one to get.
The green is amazing, blue is just a little too old ( still super attractive). We decided on the burgundy.
The video is great but doesn’t do justice to the watch’s high quality of polishing. Must see in real.
Really fed up with Omega-Rolex-Patek videos. Thanks a ton for this video buddy 👍
Teddy are you aware the giveaway form allows anyone to enter multiple entries? Is there a way you check for this? Would be an unfair advantage if someone just kept submitting without your knowledge.
This watch wears bigger on my wrist than a 40mm Rolex sub... I really loved it but I simply couldn't wear it given its grand case size.
Ted, I own the 2016 SIHH Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Duoface White/Blue... nuff said!
I knew you really loved this watch when you first talked about it with Mr. Wonderful aka Kevin O’Leary It is stunning 😍
Green dail is my favorite I m buying a 3 watches green Seiko alpinist , Seiko presage cocktail blue dail , Seiko 5 sports black colour 👍
Not even close to tudor...what more rolex...
Ho hum
This is my next watch, though I’m constantly amazed that when I speak about this watch with my watch nerd friends, they do not show any interest in the Reverso. They all feel like it’s too dressy. They just don’t get it. I’m over the moon about The Reverso.
How do modern reverses all look so tall even though they are 8.5mm? Every video of these makes them look thiccc even though the numbers say otherwise... is it an optical illusion?
Great watch! I was looking for this one for quite a bit, but I ran into a IWC Novecento Calendar #3545 instead, not sure if I should pull the trigger. What is your view on the IWC @Teddy
Love me a Reverso, don’t have one myself but for our 25th anniversary the equestrian Mrs Leano got gifted a Reverso Duetto Duo Q2268110 on the steel beads of rice bracelet. She calls it her “JJ”.
Love your channel and how you articulate watch pieces. If I win the current sweepstakes, the Hamilton Boulton Mechanical (1st choice) or, Frederique Constant Vintage Rally Healey Automatic green dial - thank you.
