The Reverso was born in 1931, designed to withstand polo matches of British Army officers in India, recognisable with its rectangular reversible case with art-deco aesthetic.

The idea of the reversible mechanism was initially made to protect the face of the watch, but it has evolved to enhance the function and aesthetic of the watch.

This reference 270.8.62 is a Grande Taille, which equals to the medium size Reverso today that measures at 26.5mm wide and 42.5mm long. This “Seibu” limited edition features an Art Deco style dial with applied JLC logo at 12, dagger style indexes and dauphine hands in rose gold. The center of the dial is guilloched and it has a rectangular sub-second dial at 6.

Unusually for a Reverso made during the period, it has a display case back showcasing the Cal. 822 on the reverse side.
