Jaeger-LeCoultre Q7168420 Reverso Tribute Monoface Midsize Stainless Steel Silver Dial Watch

Jaeger‑LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Monoface Ref. Q7168420 – Art Deco Elegance in Steel

Introduction

The Jaeger‑LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Monoface Ref. Q7168420 revives the elegant spirit of the original 1931 Reverso, blending timeless Art Deco style with modern comfort. With a reversible stainless‑steel case, refined dial, and hand‑wound movement, it exemplifies understated luxury.

Case & Dimensions

Crafted in polished stainless steel, the case measures an ideal 40.1 × 24.4 mm with a slim 7.56 mm profile, offering comfortable everyday wear while honoring the proportions of the original model. The iconic swiveling case protects its dial and enables personal engraving on its reverse.

Dial & Hands

The silver-grey opaline dial features polished rhodium-plated appliqué markers and elegant Dauphine hands. A railway-style minute track circles the dial’s perimeter, creating visual balance and enhancing legibility. Its clean, minimalist design is perfect for both formal and casual settings.

Movement

At its heart lies the hand-wound Jaeger‑LeCoultre Calibre 822 (also known as 822/2), a slender movement only 2.94 mm thick. It vibrates at 21,600 vph, consists of 108 components, and offers a 42‑hour power reserve, combining mechanical precision with refined elegance.

Strap & Comfort

Embracing Reverso’s equestrian heritage, the strap is inspired by Casa Fagliano’s iconic design, featuring a smooth calfskin flap and grained Saffiano under­straps for contrast and structure. It is interchangeable and secures with a double‑folding stainless‑steel clasp, delivering both comfort and versatility.

Customization

True to Reverso tradition, the model’s reverse side features a solid steel case-back that slides quietly into its cradle. This provides an elegant canvas for personal engraving, lacquer art, or enamel decoration—blending functionality and individuality.
