Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Day & Night Duoface

Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Night & Day Duoface Ref. 270.8.54 (Steel)

The Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Duoface with reference 270.8.54 is a masterful work of fine Swiss watchmaking and one of the most ingenious complications within the iconic Reverso family. The Duoface concept developed by Jaeger-LeCoultre drives two independent dials on the front and back with just a single mechanical manufacture movement. The classic Grande-Taille stainless steel case therefore houses two completely different faces – a bright, elegant day side and a dark, functional night side with a second time zone and day/night indicator.

• Innovative Duoface concept in a Steel case: The classic Reverso reversible case in the sought-after Grande-Taille proportions (approx. 26 x 42 mm) rotates smoothly within its carriage. It reveals two independent dials, making it ideal for travel between different time zones.

• Front (Recto) – Timeless Art Deco elegance: The silvered dial captivates with its fine guilloché centre, Arabic numerals, inner railway minute track (Chemin de fer), and blued Steel hands. A subsidiary small seconds display at 6 o’clock blends harmoniously into the design.

• Back (Verso) – Second time zone & day/night indicator: The dark back, usually featuring black or deep-grey guilloché, displays the second time zone with luminous indexes and hands. A distinctive 24-hour indicator (day/night) at 6 o’clock provides intuitive orientation while travelling.

• Discreet correction pusher in the case: The second time zone on the back can be adjusted effortlessly and quickly in one-hour increments via an elegant pusher integrated into the upper case flank.

• In-house JLC 854 manufacture calibre (Manual Wind): Inside, the fascinating shaped JLC 854 manufacture movement with Manual Wind is at work. It drives the hands of both dials in opposite directions and represents the outstanding technical expertise of the “watchmaker of watchmakers”.

• Scratch-resistant Sapphire Crystal on both sides: Both the front and back are protected by extremely durable, anti-reflective Sapphire Crystal, ensuring lasting protection and perfect legibility.

• Characteristic Godrons: The three distinctive engraved grooves above and below the dial emphasise the unmistakable architectural aesthetic of this Art Deco classic.

• High-quality leather strap with JLC folding clasp: This timeless classic is worn on an elegant ostrich or alligator leather strap, secured by an original Jaeger-LeCoultre Steel folding clasp for maximum wearing comfort.

• Sought-after classic with genuine added value: Reference 270.8.54 combines the historic reversible design of 1931 with one of the most useful complications for modern globetrotters. An extremely sought-after, value-retaining highlight for any distinguished watch collection.
