Its not mine, but it's worth a post as it's lovely. Something to drool over.


Problem is, I need a Memovox, a Futurematic and one of these (I don't know the model name) before I can start thinking about a second Reverso.

Looks ok. Finding a good one is hard....most have been redialled.
Finding an early all original black dialled one is firmly on my list as I adore them - I have three modern reversos, plus the wifes - but they rarely appear, and command a premium when they do. This (or an all black version) is the model I am after:


Now, if you are talking grail territory, JLC sold a couple of cases to Patek and there are only a few of these in existence:



Btw. If you are after a vintage JLC, am selling one of mine from the 40s (non-reverso). Feel free to drop me a message

Breach of patent apparently, IIRC Jeager pursued them vigorously and they had to stop making them.

I Will send a you a PM, but import duties usually make buying from your side of the pond unattractive. Never say never though...
