This is the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Répétition Minutes, reference 270.2.73, launched in 1994 as the first Reverso with a minute repeater and JLC's first minute-repeating wristwatch. Produced as a limited edition of just 500 pieces in 18K pink gold, it is powered by calibre 943, the world's first rectangular minute repeater movement: hand-wound, 306 parts, 38 jewels, chiming hours, quarters and minutes on two gongs. A slide on the case side sets it off, and the repeater governor turns in the aperture at 5 o'clock on the silvered guilloché dial. The reversible case measures about 26mm wide and is fitted with a leather strap.
This one comes as watch only.
Case shows wear consistent with 30 years of regular use.
