Strap Guide written by @karleonesub16610
Introduction
The Jaeger Lecoultre Reverso needs no formal introduction; it's an iconic symbol in horology. This particular piece - the Reverso Tribute Small Seconds - sets itself apart with a unique dial layout exclusive to the Tribute line. It boasts non-numeral indices, a rounded small second, Dauphine hands, and a captivating sunburst green dial, making it exceptionally unique.
But what truly sets this watch apart is its sentimental value; it's a gift from my soon-to-be wife. While I've always admired the iconic Reverso, I couldn't deny my inclination toward Rolexes for their sporty appeal. To me, the Reverso embodies the perfect timepiece for a mature gentleman, what a perfect watch to transition from bachelor to husband!
For those wary of an abundance of green, swapping the strap offers a stylish solution. Selecting the perfect strap to complement this vibrant dial can be a challenge. A special thank you to Ken for including the Reverso Tribute Small Second in the strap finder!
The original green strap with the Casa Fagliano design exudes beauty and complements the 20-18 deployment clasp flawlessly. However, all the straps below come in 20-16, which I personally prefer. I love the taper effect it offers, providing a classier and more refined look.
Matte Cognac Alligator Signature
Indulge in the sophistication of the Matte Cognac Alligator Signature Strap, a refined alternative to the original green strap. Its rich color exudes elegance, making it a personal favorite. Crafted for the modern gentleman, this strap elevates the Reverso with its luxurious allure.
Brown "Teddy Bear" Alcantara Signature
For a more relaxed vibe, the Brown Alcantara Signature strap offers a delightful contrast to the vibrant sunburst green dial. Perfect for more casual occasions and warmer days, its earthy tone adds a touch of warmth and versatility to your ensemble.
Tapestry Grey Ostrich Signature
Experience luxury in every detail with the Tapestry Grey Ostrich Signature Strap. The intricate texture of ostrich leather adds depth and character, enhancing the sophistication of the Reverso. Its unique color and pattern effortlessly complement the dial's simplicity, creating a captivating combination.
Marron Barenia Signature
Match your formal attire seamlessly with the Marron Barenia Signature Strap. Its rich brown hue effortlessly complements dress shoes and belts, ensuring a polished look for every occasion.
Taupe Saffiano Stitchless
As the epitome of comfort and style, the Taupe Saffiano Stitchless Strap is a big winner. Thin yet durable, it wraps perfectly around the wrist, offering unparalleled comfort. Its versatile color effortlessly complements any outfit, making it the ultimate choice for everyday wear. This strap perfectly accentuates the timeless appeal of the Reverso.
