Takman introduces his first fine watch, a Jaeger-LeCoultre Ultra Thin Reverso, marking a significant step up from his previous collection. His post provides a personal perspective on choosing this specific Reverso model over the more commonly discussed Tribute to 1931 versions. This offers a refreshing take for new collectors navigating the world of luxury timepieces.






with a Reverso in my opinion. The thin profile looks great. I look forward to seeing what you get engraved on the back. Stewart
I really don't have much of an idea of what I would like, and the thought of sending it away isn't very appealing at this point... maybe I'll have made up my mind by the time I need to send it for a service. Chris
You opted for the dressy Grande Reverso UT, while others go for the historical one. Is it a bad choice? Certainly not. Why others went on the TT R 31? Because they were used to the classic dial of your watch, and wanted something with a stronger historical background, that is all. Honestly, yours is very chic. Bravo! Nicolas
I really admired your photos from last years SIHH (and this years too), as I said photos of this version aren't as common online. Yes, this is my first JLC so I have not grown accustomed to their modern offerings. The tribute was too old school for my youthful taste... not that there is anything wrong with the ttr31. Thank you for the compliments, Chris
Good choice and a great start. Perhaps later on, consider engraving it's caseback. Am planning to do that for my TT31 one day
Yes I think I will have it engraved later, but for now it's staying with me! Chris
