Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Classique 252.8.47
Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Classique — Ref. 252.8.47
A direct piece of design history: the Reverso’s Art-Deco lines date to 1931 and remain unmistakable. This Classique model is fitted with Jaeger-LeCoultre’s quartz calibre 657, which gives you precise, low-maintenance timekeeping — ideal if you want the Reverso’s style without daily winding.
Important note: Jaeger-LeCoultre’s 1000 Hours Control (Mille Heures) is an intensive in-house test applied to mechanical movements (accuracy, temperature and positional stability, shocks, magnetism, water resistance, etc., over ~1000 hours). Because the Ref. 252.8.47 uses a quartz movement, it is not submitted to the 1000-hour test. The watch still benefits from JLC’s manufacture standards and finishing, but it should not be described as Mille Heures-certified.
You still get the tactile, protective reversible case and clean Reverso proportions — a practical, elegant choice for everyday wear with historic pedigree.
