Jaeger-LeCoultre's mid-century output is remarkable — alarm watches, bumper automatics and the original Reverso all come from this period. Many were sold in South Africa new and still surface in family estates.
What we look at
Case metal and originality of the dial and hands drive value. Reverso cases should flip smoothly and show crisp fluting — over-polished examples value lower, and we will show you the difference.
