Jaeger-LeCoultre Special Edition - Reverso Tribute Duoface Fagliano

The new timepiece combines Duoface double-sided dual time zone complication with the pure and simple aesthetic design of the Tribute series, and is paired with a strap exclusively designed and handmade by the world-renowned manufacturer of Argentine polo boots and knight boots, Casa Fagliano.

The Jaeger LeCoultre clone watches Duoface double-sided dual time zone watch is equipped with two contrasting dials. It first appeared in 1994 and is driven by the 854A/2 manual winding movement. Each dial displays the time in a different time zone. In order to retain the elegant integrated design of the case, the second time zone time is adjusted by a dial handle fully embedded in the top of the outer edge of the case. The dial handle will only be revealed when the case is pushed out of the bezel and is about to be turned over. The inner surface of the bezel is engraved with sun radiation patterns, which presents a pleasing visual effect when it is turned over.

The front dial is consistent with the design of the classic Reverso series. The straight double hour markers are used at 12 o'clock to make the rich burgundy red lacquered dial more profound, echoing the princess-style hands. The small seconds dial at 6 o'clock uses a circular orbital scale ring, which contrasts sharply with the linear geometry of the dial and case.

The design of the dial on the back cleverly uses the tension between the arc and the straight line, which contrasts sharply with the decorative finishing. The concavo-convex texture of the "Paris Rivet" guilloche pattern highlights the shiny creamy white decoration of the central time display, as well as the smaller round windows that display day and night.

The two dial treatments are more balanced under the warm tone of the rose gold case, which contrasts with the two-tone strap. The famous Argentine boot brand Casa Fagliano draws inspiration from its canvas and leather polo boots made for the summer polo competition. It combines Cordoba leather and canvas to make a new strap, each strap is Cut and sew by hand.
