Introducing all of Jaeger-LeCoultre's new watches for 2025!

We introduce the new watches for 2025 announced by Jaeger-LeCoultre at Watches & Wonders Geneva. This year, the company's signature collection, the Reverso, has been expanded with the release of a variety of new models.

New for 2025① "Reverso Tribute Geographic"

　The Reverso, first produced in 1931, is unique in that it features a reversible case to protect the watch during polo matches. It was revived in 1985 and has since become a popular part of the company's signature collection.

　After the revival of the Reverso in 1991, marking its 60th anniversary, Jaeger-LeCoultre began incorporating complex mechanisms into this iconic watch. The new model, the Reverso Tribute Geographic, symbolizes this history.

　This watch symbolizes the history of Reverso complications and connects it to another historic timepiece: In 1998, Jaeger-LeCoultre first interpreted the collection as a travel watch with the Reverso Geographic, one of six Reversos with complications released in a limited edition of 500 pieces in the 1990s. Now, in 2025, the Reverso Tribute series will be the first to feature a complication and bear the name "Geographic."

　This new timepiece, available in a limited run of 150 pieces in 18K pink gold or stainless steel, is equipped with Jaeger-LeCoultre's newly developed movement, Cal. 834. At first glance, it appears to be a minimalist three-hand model with a grand date, but when the case is flipped over, it becomes a world time watch, allowing you to check the time zones of 24 major cities.

　The way this world time is operated is also unique. Not only is it visually appealing, but it is operated using a push button that appears on the side of the case at 12 o'clock when it is slid out of the cradle. Most world time watches have push buttons located on a visible part of the case side, but the fact that this mechanism has been realized without compromising the Art Deco style is something that is unique to the Reverso.

　When you click the push button, the disc jumps quickly in one-hour increments. This specification is also different from that of a typical world time. Normally, cities are written on the disc, and the city you want to use as a reference is set at the 12 o'clock position. Along with the 24-hour display disc, you can read the time at the location of the city you want to know about. However, Jaeger-LeCoultre has designed the 24-hour display to move as a disc, and the city names are engraved directly on the case. The new movement that makes this mechanism possible is a fully integrated movement, rather than an added module.

　Not only the world time dial, but also the three-hand and grand date dials are full of originality. The deep blue or chocolate-colored dials are sunray-finished, subtly changing their appearance depending on the light. The blue dial is made of 24 layers of blue lacquer.

　Another notable feature is the grand date display at 12 o'clock. In 2021, the company's engineers developed and patented a new date disc shape that fits within the limited space of the rectangular Reverso case. The two discs are not overlapping, but are adjacent to each other. When the single-digit date display ends, a small hook on one disc catches on the other disc and rotates it to move to the two-digit number. This structure ensures that the discs are evenly spaced, creating a visual harmony.

　This special Reverso Tribute Geographice, limited to 150 pieces, is presented in a rare 18K gold edition, presented in a special presentation box inspired by the Nonantième Collector's Box that contained the six 60th Anniversary models from 1991. Each of the six compartments is dedicated to a unique Reverso model.

　The stainless steel model comes with two straps designed by Casa Fagliano: blue leather or bi-material blue leather and canvas straps with interchangeable double folding buckles, while the 18K pink gold model comes with golden tan calfskin or black alligator straps with interchangeable pin buckles.

New for 2025② "Reverso Tribute Minute Repeater"

　The new Reverso Tribute Minute Repeater model features the new, fully integrated movement, Cal. 953, which includes seven patented inventions, and an enamel dial crafted by the Métiers Rares™ workshop.

　At first glance, the new Reverso appears to be a simple two-hand watch, but flip it over to reveal its intricate movement, a minute repeater that Jaeger-LeCoultre considers "the most difficult and challenging complication for a watchmaker to master."

　Jaeger-LeCoultre introduced the Reverso Minute Repeater in 1994. Since then, in order to fit the repeater mechanism into this small rectangular case, they have acquired numerous patents for inventions that alter the shape of the gongs and pursue and improve the sound quality produced. Notable examples include the crystal gongs in 2005 and the trevoucher hammer in 2009. This new model, from a company with such a rich tradition of chiming mechanisms, incorporates seven existing patents, including the aforementioned crystal gongs and trevoucher hammer, as well as a silent time lapse reduction mechanism that eliminates silent intervals.

　Although it is a space-consuming piece of music, the case measures 51.1mm long, 31mm wide, and 12.6mm thick, and has a practical power reserve of approximately 48 hours.

　The extreme pursuit of aesthetics also embodies Jaeger-LeCoultre's spirit of watchmaking excellence. The "front" of this watch features a hand-guilloched barley seed pattern and is topped off with multiple layers of Grand Feu enamel in a new color: teal blue. The dial was created in Jaeger-LeCoultre's Métiers Rare™ workshop, requiring four hours for the guilloching and a further eight hours for the Grand Feu enamel.

　The case is openworked, allowing the complex movement of the repeater to be seen, and the hand-chamfered and decorated parts of the movement to be admired. The bridge that supports the hammers across the entire width of the movement, from 5 to 7 o'clock, is decorated with blue lacquer.

　On the other hand, such openwork watches tend to be difficult to read, but this model's blue lacquer outer periphery with a minute track, faceted indexes, and powerful hands make it easy to check the time.

　The slider that activates the repeater, mounted on the side of the case, does not interfere with the Reverso's Art Deco style.

　This model comes with a black alligator strap and an 18K pink gold folding clasp that, surprisingly, features a fine adjustment mechanism: a new double wheel mechanism that allows for fine adjustment in 0.5 mm increments.

　This model will also be released with a Nonantième collector's box. Limited to just 30 pieces, it is an even rarer model, but it can be said to be a new model that clearly shows the current state of Jaeger-LeCoultre's watchmaking.

2025 New Watch #3: Reverso Tribute Monoface Small Seconds

　Also worth noting is the Reverso Tribute Monoface Small Seconds with a Milanese link bracelet.

　The mesh-type Milanese bracelet seen on vintage watches. This supple and elegant bracelet brings originality to a watch. This model combines this Milanese bracelet with a grained gold-colored dial, achieving both a vintage feel and modern elegance.

　The case is thin at 7.56mm, and the slightly updated lug attachments make it appear as if it is integrated with the bracelet, creating a graceful line. Although the case is not bulky, the weight of the 18K pink gold is felt comfortably.

　This exquisite bracelet features a sliding clasp that allows for fine adjustment.

　The movement used is the basic hand-wound Cal. 822, which has a power reserve of approximately 42 hours.

2025 New Release ④ "Reverso Tribute Duo Small Seconds"

Two new dials have been announced for the Reverso Tribute Duo Small Seconds.

　This watch features a modern black or blue dial. Flip the case over to reveal a chic silver-gray dial. Furthermore, while the front only features three hands, the back features hour and minute hands as well as a day/night indicator and a 24-hour display. This means that a second time zone can be displayed on the back. As the name "Duo" suggests, this is a watch that shows different faces on both sides. Operation is also simple; simply slide the case out of the cradle and use the push button at 12 o'clock to advance the hour hand by one hour.

　Both models have stainless steel cases and are equipped with the hand-wound Cal. 854 movement. The power reserve is approximately 42 hours. Two straps are included: a leather strap in the same color as the dial, or a bi-material strap made of leather and canvas.
