Catalogue Note

Since the 60th anniversary of Reverso in 1991, Jaeger-LeCoultre has started to create different limited edition complicated watches designed around the "Reverso" model. Inspired by the company's famous model - "Master Geographique", Jaeger-LeCoultre developed this limited edition pink gold "Reverso Geographique" in 1998. The present example is numbered 33 and it was produced in a limited series of 500 pieces in pink gold only. Different from most of the astronomical watches with moon phases that only move forward once or twice a day by the date wheel (based on a 29.5/day cycle), the Night and Day display of this "Reverso Geographique'" allows the user to witness its changes on an hourly basis.
