I just wanted to share some photos of my second high-end watch, a Jaeger-LeCoultre Grande Reverso Duo, which takes its place next to my Vacheron Constantin Overseas.
Some more photos of the front and back dial.
My Vacheron Constantin Overseas
One attraction of this Reverso Duo, is that it has two faces (black and white), and is almost like having two watches for the price of one.
It has the JLC Calibre 986, which is a hand-winding, 28.8kbp movement, with 19 jewels, and 48 hour power reserve. At the first stop, the watch is in winding mode, in the second stop, you can move the hour hand backwards and forwards on the white dial in hour increments, and when one cycles the hours over a 24 hour cycle, then the date adjusts (backwards and forwards). In the third stop, the time is freely adjustable, and adjusts both the white and black dials (synchronized, up to the hour offset set at the second stop).
This is a recent review of the watch:
