Whether you’re attending a high-profile event or simply elevating your everyday look, The 1931 Polo Club ensures you make a statement without saying a word.

Watches and Wonders 2025 has set the stage for yet another groundbreaking horological marvel, and Jaeger-LeCoultre has once again proven why the Reverso remains an icon of innovation and artistry. This year, the Maison introduces the Reverso Tribute Geographic, a fresh interpretation of the travel time complication that not only celebrates the spirit of adventure but also elevates the Reverso’s role as a mechanical and artistic masterpiece.

Available in stainless steel or an 18k pink gold limited edition of 150 pieces, this watch redefines the World Time complication, seamlessly blending functionality with exquisite craftsmanship. At its heart lies the newly developed Calibre 834, an in-house movement featuring 209 components, offering a 42-hour power reserve and an innovative Grande Date display.

A Legacy of Innovation in World Time Watches
The World Time complication is as much about practicality as it is about evoking the romance of global travel. Since standard time zones were established in 1884, watchmakers have sought to display multiple time zones on a single dial. Jaeger-LeCoultre first mastered this in 1958 with the Memovox World Time and has since introduced world timers in several collections, including the Geophysic, Polaris, and Duomètre.

The first Reverso Geographic debuted in 1998, marking Jaeger-LeCoultre’s first travel-focused interpretation of the swiveling timepiece. Now, in 2025, the Reverso Tribute Geographic continues this tradition, introducing the World Time complication into the Tribute collection for the first time.

A Dual-Faced Masterpiece: Two Dials, Two Identities
As with all Duoface Reversos, this model offers two distinct dials, each crafted with the highest level of detail and precision.

Front Dial: Pure Elegance and Functionality
The front dial is a lesson in refined minimalism, available in two striking finishes:
Deep blue sunray (for the steel model)
Chocolate brown sunray (for the pink gold model)

The Grande Date display, a highlight of this watch, is framed by a polished metal outline that complements the case material, ensuring visual harmony. Below it, a circular small seconds subdial provides a counterbalance to the rectangular form, subtly mirroring the shape of the world-time display on the reverse dial.

Reverse Dial: The World at a Glance
Flipping the case reveals the World Time function, which is both aesthetic and highly functional. Unlike conventional world timers, where the city ring moves, Jaeger-LeCoultre has re-engineered the complication so that the 24-hour ring rotates instead—a patented design that enhances legibility and ease of use.

At the center of this dial is a laser-engraved world map, featuring 141 individually hand-filled lacquer hollows representing the oceans. The landmasses and longitude lines are left in polished metal, creating a subtle three-dimensional effect that catches the light beautifully.

For the steel model, shades of cool blue dominate, while the pink gold edition features warmer black and grey tones, perfectly complementing the case material.

Designed specifically for the Reverso Tribute Geographic, the Calibre 834 is a fully integrated movement rather than a modular addition, ensuring superior reliability and efficiency.

Key Technical Innovations:
World Time with a 24-hour rotating ring for better clarity
Hidden pusher at the top of the case, allowing quick time zone adjustment
Patented Grande Date display with stacked discs for improved legibility
42-hour power reserve, balancing precision with functionality

The ability to instantly track 24 major cities worldwide makes this timepiece an indispensable companion for collectors with a passion for travel.

Craftsmanship That Transcends Time
Each Reverso Tribute Geographic is presented with two interchangeable straps, designed in collaboration with Casa Fagliano, the renowned Argentinian polo bootmaker.

Steel model: Comes with a blue calfskin strap and a blue canvas-and-leather hybrid strap

Pink gold model: Features golden-tan calfskin and black alligator leather straps

Every aspect of this timepiece, from its meticulously hand-finished surfaces to its engraved and lacquered details, reaffirms Jaeger-LeCoultre’s dedication to combining artistry with horological ingenuity.
