Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Classic Small 2016 21mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 21 mm case suggests

Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Classic Small 2016 21mm measures 34 mm lug-to-lug on a 21 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.62 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 97% of the 8,093 watches in this database and shorter than 96% of the 74 Jaeger-LeCoultre watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 38 mm (1.50 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 46 mm (1.81 in) it starts to look compact. Below 34 mm (1.34 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.

At 7.4 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 96% of the watches with a listed thickness.
