Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso 278856J Stainless Steel Red Dial Special '1931 Rouge' Edition

The Jaeger-LeCoultre Q278856J “1931 Rouge” stands out as one of the most recognizable special editions in the modern Reverso lineup, bringing a bold red dial to the iconic Art Deco case. Crafted in stainless steel and measuring approximately 46.8mm x 27.4mm, it pays tribute to the original 1931 design while adding a vivid colorway that has become highly sought after among enthusiasts. The deep burgundy-red dial elevates the classic rectangular form into something far more expressive, giving this special edition a presence unlike any other contemporary Reverso.

The watch retains the signature reversible case, revealing a solid steel caseback on the opposite side for a clean, minimalist look. The red lacquer-style dial features simple baton markers and a small seconds display that keep the aesthetic refined and true to the 1931 spirit. Paired with a black alligator strap, the Q278856J blends heritage design with a striking modern twist—ideal for collectors who appreciate understated craftsmanship with a distinctive splash of color.
