Jaeger LeCoultre 290.8.60 Reverso Gran Sport SS Gray Dial

The Jaeger‑LeCoultre Reverso Gran Sport reference 290.8.60 represents a bold departure from the classic Art Deco Reverso, introducing a sportier silhouette with its barrel‑shaped 27 × 43 mm stainless steel case and integrated bracelet. Launched in the late 1990s, this model housed the in‑house automatic caliber 960R, offering approximately 40–45 hours of power reserve and a quick‑set date at 6 o’clock. Its gray (often described as anthracite or silver‑gray) dial features luminous arrowhead indices, Arabic numerals at 3 and 9, and a discreet date aperture, combining legibility with refined sport elegance. The screw‑down crown and 50 m (5 ATM) water resistance underscore its tool‑watch intent, a rare trait among Reverso models of its era. Though the Gran Sport line was produced only until the mid‑2000s, it remains a compelling collector’s piece for its unique fusion of Reverso heritage and modern athletic design. The automatic movement, reversible case, and integrated steel bracelet elevate its technical appeal, while its relative scarcity enhances its desirability among enthusiasts.
