The Jaeger-LeCoultre "Reverso Duoface", reference 270.2.54 is an elegant and highly sophisticated wristwatch, combining the iconic turning case of the Reverso range with a groundbreaking duo face. A special feature of the Reverso Duoface is the double-sided display with two different dials powered by a single movement: The mechanic hand-wound calibre 854/1. The calibre was developed specially for the duoface function and allows operating both dials with a single movement. The silvered front dial has a fine guilloche pattern in the centre. It features a classic minute track with small second at 6 o’clock, which is typical for the Reverso’s Art déco style. The reverse dial is black with a guilloche pattern and displays a second time zone – perfect for travellers who like to keep their eye on a second timezone.
