Vintage Jaeger Lecoultre Reverso Seconde Centrale.
Aaah, the Reverso, the Icon or better said, one of the Jaeger Lecoultre icons.
When it was issued, in 1931, it came with Lecoultre on the dial, and we had to wait till 1937 to see the Jaeger Lecoultre signature and a second hand.
Here the central second, from circa 1937.
As for the size, it is the same than the Classic. So, 38 x 23. Smaller than the GT case we all cherish ( 42, 25 x 26 mm ), but not that small on the wrist.
It's gone, but not forgotten.
Best,
Nicolas

That is such a lovely watch. The Art Deco dial design is so attractive.
You’re absolutely right about the size on the wrist. I wear my Classic regularly and it looks and feels great. Regards Kev.
A classic.
And a perfect golfing companion (though it can get rather expensive replacing those ostrich straps).
What a beauty! And a superb picture as always dear Amanico!!
This is my absolute favourite and I think many of us wish for a reissue!
