Jaeger Lecoultre Reverso Squadra World Time Polo Fields.
The Squadra World Time was unveiled in 2006... The " Polo Fields " version came two years after, in 208. Titanium and ceramic case,
Or in a limited edition of 500 pieces in rose gold and ceramic:
How many years didn't we see one, even in pictures?
Even more, how many of us remember that watch?
I had mixed feelings with the Squadra WT, Polo Fields or not... Two issues for me: The size, big and thick, and the fact that I always loved the verso dial, but not so much the recto.
But I would love to see a sporty Reverso in the Catalog, somewhere between the Gan sport Chrono and the Squadra.
Best,
Nicolas
Wow. Haven't seen that, very interesting.
I'm a bit mad that Jaeger-LeCoultre stopped producing sports watches. They were quite nice and looked actually pretty good.
Well, the price was quite high, though. And once again, the proportions were too big. For a normal wrist, that was problematic. [nt]

If it just would have been a bit smaller...
The square makes it even bigger on the wrist. Though I really love the Art Deco approach of the Squadra World Time. And the mix of Ti and ceramic is more than up to date even nowadays. I don’t think we’ll see Sport watches like these in the near future of JLC 😕
Yes, the size is the biggest issue, indeed. Thanks for commenting, JLCman. [nt]

OK, it WAS thick...
but the content was amazing! JLC's only large-date chrono, based on the 75X series, with world time on the back, and the ceramic case was solid. I also loved it on the articulated rubber with the patented clasp.
I REALLY wish JLC would continue the articulated rubber bracelet on its sport watches (or, as has been said ad nauseum, re-introduce the Compressor series in a new, souped-up version).

I know your love for the articulated rubber bracelet. You contaminated me on that matter. ;). As for a new sports watch from JLC, I am with you. That's another " work in progress " I wish for. [nt]
