The **Reverso Squadra** is a wristwatch in the [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso|Reverso]] family produced by [[Jaeger-LeCoultre]] from [[2006]], replacing the [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Gran'Sport|Reverso Gran'Sport]].

===== Overview =====
Jaeger-LeCoultre marked the 75th anniversary of the Reverso line by introducing an all new line, the wide Squadra. The Italian word for "team", Squadra is also a play on the English word, "square". The inner case is indeed square, though the large base gives a ratio of 1.45 1. This is similar to the [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso II|Reverso II]] from the 1980s as well as the rare 31 x 21 mm Reverso models of the 1930s. But the Squadra models were massive, much larger than any previous production Reverso model. Another first for a Reverso was the 50-component [[titanium]] case used in the [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Squadra World Chronograph|Reverso Squadra World Chronograph]].

The Squadra replaced the [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Gran'Sport|Reverso Gran'Sport]] as the [[sports watch]] in the Reverso lineup. Like its predecessor, the Squadra relied on [[complicated]] movements and was aimed at a younger audience than the dressy classic Reverso models.

===== History =====
The original Squadra lineup consisted of the [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Squadra Hometime|Squadra Hometime]], [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Squadra Chronograph GMT|Chronograph GMT]], and [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Squadra World Chronograph|World Chronograph]]. The Hometime and Chronograph GMT share a 50.5 mm tall by 34.9 mm wide by 14.1 mm thick case. The Hometime uses Jaeger-LeCoultre's "[[Jaeger-LeCoultre Autotractor|Autotractor]]" automatic movement, while the Chronograph GMT and World Chronograph use the [[JLC 754|Cal. 754]]/[[JLC 753|753]] [[automatic]] [[chronograph]] movement, one of the first such movements designed in-house by the company. "Black" models of the Chronograph GMT and Hometime were launched two years later. The titanium World Chronograph was augmented with ceramic components for the Polo Fields model launched in [[2009]].

In [[2008]], Jaeger-LeCoultre debuted a new ladies line of Reverso Squadra watches. The eponymous [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Squadra Lady|Reverso Squadra Lady]] was joined by the [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Squadra Lady Duetto|Reverso Squadra Lady Duetto]] and [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Squadra Classique|Reverso Squadra Classique/Classic]]. The Lady and Duetto were equipped with the automatic movements [[JLC 966|Cal. 966]] and [[JLC 968|Cal. 968J]], respectively, while the Classique (also called "Classic") was equipped with the [[quartz movement]] [[JLC 657|Cal. 657]].

Although moderately successful, the Squadra did not set a new standard for the Reverso. As Jaeger-LeCoultre refreshed their lineup in the mid-2010s, the company decided against continuing it. The Classique was the first to be eliminated in [[2014]], with most other models ceasing production in [[2015]]. The last Squadra model offered for sale was the Lady Duetto, which lasted until [[2017]].
