Jaeger-LeCoultre introduces three limited-edition Reverso Tribute Enamel watches in honor of Venice, coinciding with its participation in the Homo Faber Biennial exhibition. These exclusive pieces feature intricate miniature reproductions of Claude Monet’s paintings from his ‘Venice Series’ on the case-back.

Monet’s series, inspired by Venice’s architecture and light, was created during a prolific 10-week stay in 1908. Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Métiers Rares™ Atelier brings this artistry to life, combining miniature painting, enamelling, and guillochage. The challenge of translating Monet’s large works onto a small surface required exceptional skill, including 14 layers of enamel and multiple firings to achieve depth, texture, and color.

“The Grand Canal, Venice” captures a mesmerizing afternoon view with a striking sense of depth and movement. The church of Santa Maria della Salute appears to float on the water, with its architectural details softened by the hazy light. Reproducing this masterpiece on the case back took nearly 70 hours of expert enameling. The dial’s wavy hand-guilloché pattern, which required eight hours of precise craftsmanship, mirrors the water’s reflections in Monet’s painting. This wave effect is further enhanced by layers of translucent grand feu enamel in a soft green hue, matching the color of the canal’s water.

Limited to 10 pieces each, these watches embody a tribute to Venice and a fusion of fine watchmaking and decorative arts.
