Jaeger-LeCoultre Honors the Year of the Horse with Reverso Tribute Enamel Additions | stupidDOPE | Est. 2008
"The centerpiece of this launch is the Reverso Tribute Enamel "Xu Beihong," a watch that honors the man widely regarded as the father of modern Chinese painting. Xu Beihong's work often explored the strength and vitality of horses, and Jaeger-LeCoultre has transformed three of his most famous equine paintings into wearable works of art. Each white-gold model features a grand feu enamel caseback painstakingly hand-painted with one of three scenes: a lone horse in full gallop, a pair moving in graceful unison,"
"This level of miniature painting is a feat that requires approximately 80 hours of labor per caseback, with artisans using ultra-fine brushes to layer and fire enamel until the image achieves its depth and vibrancy. The dials complement these casebacks with an array of guilloché patterns, from barleycorn to sunray and herringbone, executed in three evocative colorways - Evergreen Pine Green, Distant Mountain Blue, and Crimson Dawn Orange. The result is a pairing of dial and caseback that feels both contemporary"
Jaeger-LeCoultre presents two 2025 Reverso Tribute Enamel equestrian editions, the "Xu Beihong" series and the "Horse" limited edition, each limited to ten pieces. The Xu Beihong models pair white-gold cases with grand feu enamel casebacks hand-painted with three horse scenes: a galloping lone horse, a pair moving in unison, and a noble steed standing. Artisans spend approximately 80 hours per caseback using ultra-fine brushes to layer and fire enamel for depth and vibrancy. Complementary guilloché dials are offered in Evergreen Pine Green, Distant Mountain Blue, and Crimson Dawn Orange, uniting traditional decorative techniques with Reverso heritage and equestrian motifs.
