Jaeger Lecoultre Reverso One Cordonnet Steel Blue.
The Reverso One Cordonnet in steel with its blue dial could be THE perfect watch for a lady.
The dimensions are tip top: 33, 8 mm x 16, 3 mm, 7 mm thick. This rectangular case is just sublime.
The sunburst blue dial is a true eye catcher.
And the bracelet is lovely.
If I wrote " could ", it is because of the movement.
Here, we have something very rare in a Jaeger Lecoultre, a Quartz movement, the Cal 657:
43 parts, 4 jewels...
I would have much preferred to see a small manual winding movement, here, for this top class watch!
Best,
Nicolas

I am in total agreement....
with your observations, yes, it would have been so much more technically appealing with an auto manual-wind movement; but it is still among the very best options for a woman out there . Cheers, Filip
I mentioned this before....
I find the majority of women geared timepieces somewhere between unappealing and appaling. I think they are, in general, much better off wearing a reasonably sized 'men's' watch than the female alternatives. Cheers, Filip
After one week on the wrist
My bride is still smiling. We both like watches that do not attract attention. She fell in love with the size as she frequently bangs her watches against things, and she was attracted to the strap. The movement never entered into consideration. ...
