Two very different strands of style culture have intertwined to invent a modern classic. Opening the year of celebrations around the seventy-fifth birthday of perhaps the most well-known watch of all time the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso L.A. based cult customiser Dr Romanelli has collaborated with the esteemed Swiss watchmakers Jaeger-LeCoultre to produce two exclusive versions of the timepiece with the famous rotating case.
Bearing the hallmarks of Dr Romanelli’s ‘street couture’ design methodology, with his distinctive scissors logo on the dial, these exquisite watches have been fashioned so that they may be worn on the cuff of four beautifully hand-finished Dr Romanelli jackets, creating a sophisticated fusion of progressive sportswear and luxury brand aesthetics.
The stylish and powerful Reverso Grande Réserve model integrates the technical innovation associated with Jaeger-LeCoultre and the contemporary design flourishes brought to it by Dr Romanelli’s ‘customising’ design outlook. The watch boasts a calibre 874 mechanical movement, lending it eight days’ power reserve, whilst the elegant black and dark grey guilloché dial gives it a distinguished, bold appearance. A special engraving on the case-back of Dr Romanelli’s distinctive couture scissors motif asserts the piece as a must-have fashion item.
This new version of the Reverso watch also suggests a variety of ways of wearing the watch. It comes with a special adaptation bridge with a broad strap in soft lamb’s leather that can be strapped around the cuff of the Dr Romanelli jacket. In addition, the watch head may also be removed altogether and replaced with a steel tag for a more edgy, ‘street-style’ statement. The bridge is also removable so that the watch can be worn with a more classic strap if desired.
