The famous Reverso, whose dial protects itself against the worst hits with a simple gesture, has displayed its Art Deco style for almost 90 years now.

The
“Grande Maison”
, as it is nicknamed with respect, is even taking a step ahead by immediately unveiling a limited edition, already available in its Parisian boutique, Place Vendôme.
This Reverso Tribute Duoface Fagliano produced in 190 pieces (only 90 would undoubtedly have been too short to meet expectations) combines a burgundy dial and a rose gold case.

Even if, for the moment, the time is hardly for long journeys, the moment when we will again have use of a dual time zone will come sooner or later.
And it is a complication that this Duoface module has made it possible to display and manage wonderfully since its appearance in 1994: this timepiece has two contrasting dials, here a burgundy and a white, each displaying a different time zone, thanks to the Caliber. Jaeger-LeCoultre 854A / 2 with manual winding, for a power reserve of 42 hours.
The second time zone is adjusted by a small invisible corrector placed in the band.
