Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Classique

About this reference

The Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Classique Large reference Q3828420 is a contemporary production model introduced around 2016 as part of the brand’s streamlined collection. Collectors prioritize this reference for its adherence to the original 1931 proportions, featuring a stainless steel case measuring 45.6mm by 27.4mm with a slim 8.5mm profile. It utilizes the manual-wind Calibre 822/2, a shaped movement with a 42-hour power reserve. The silvered dial features a guilloché center, black transferred Arabic numerals, and blued steel baton hands, omitting a seconds hand for a minimalist aesthetic. On the secondary market, this reference typically trades between $5,500 and $7,500 depending on condition and provenance. A notable production detail is the solid caseback on the reverse side, which provides a blank canvas for personalized engraving, a traditional functional element of the Reverso line that maintains the model's historical purpose of protecting the crystal.
