Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Offers Up Its Caseback For Year of The Tiger
The made-to-order piece can be personalised with different enamel colors.
Jaeger-LeCoultre has used the blank canvas offered by the caseback of its iconic Reverso model to create a special edition designed for the arrival of the Year of the Tiger.
The 18K pink gold Reverso Tribute Enamel Tiger has been created as a made-to-order special edition, not only to pay tribute to the arrival of the Lunar New Year but also to mark the opening of Jaeger-LeCoultre’s new flagship boutique in Shanghai.
A rampant tiger has been hand engraved on the caseback – a process taking 55 hours to complete – and infilled with black enamel, which takes a further 20 hours.
The dial of the Reverso Tribute Enamel is coated in the same black enamel which serves as the perfect backdrop for the Reverso’s faceted pink gold applied hour markers, the printed gold chemin de for minute track and Dauphin hands.
As the pieces are made-to-order, Jaeger-LeCoultre is offering the possibility of personalisation with different color enamels.
The Reverso Tribute Enamel Tiger is available now via Jaeger-LeCoultre, priced Euro 90,000 (approximately $103,000 USD).
