Sold!!! Limited Jaeger-LeCoultre 231T50 Reverso Squadra World Time Chronograph Titanium

WatchTime.com Review: The square theme is most evident on the impressively symmetrical black dial, and its clever arrangement of the numerous functions on display. (Interesting side note: the term “Squadra,” which one might assume means “square” is actually the Italian word for “team” or “squadron,” perhaps a reference to the Reverso’s sporty origins as a watch for polo players.)

The hour numerals are in a somewhat blocky sans-serif Arabic font; each hour is denoted by a numeral except at the 12 , 3, 6, and 9 o’clock, where subdials are placed to indicate at least one additional function. Going around the horn: a big date in a double-window aperture at 12 o’clock; a 30-minute chronograph counter at 3 o’clock; a GMT function with day-night indicator at 6 o’clock; and 12-hour chronograph counter at 9 o’clock. All the subdials are squared and surrounded by white tick marks on their edges, playing off of the large central square in the center of the dial (for the minutes) and the one that occupies the dial’s flange, upon which the red central hand tallies the chronograph seconds. Red appears as a highlight color throughout, on both subdials (the “12” and the “30”) and, most practically, representing the nighttime hours on the GMT subdial. The linear, horizontal guilloché motif on the dial’s center echoes the gadroons and enhances the watch’s streamlined overall look.

On the flip side of this dial is an eye-catching world time display, with the names of 24 world cities radiating outward from the center and surrounded by a black-and-white 24-hour scale. Turning the crown to its second position rotates the disk and allows the wearer to see the time (on a 24-hour scale) simultaneously in all the major time zones. The red highlight color comes into play here as well, dividing daylight from nighttime and denoting London as GMT 0.

The watch is driven by a manufacture movement, Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Caliber 753, which is composed of 366 parts, including 44 jewels; beats at a frequency if 28,800 vph; and stores a power reserve of around 65 hours. Of course, like most Reverso models, the movement is hidden behind the solid caseback rather than on display through a sapphire window; some purists may find this a detriment, while others will agree with me that the world-time display, aside from being an attractive and utilitarian alternative, will impress the watch-connoisseur crowd just as much as an exhibition back would.
