The **Reverso Tribute Gyrotourbillon** (Ref. 3946420) is a [[tourbillon]] [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso|Reverso]] watch from [[Jaeger-LeCoultre]], introduced in [[2016]] as part of the [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Hybris Mechanica|Hybris Mechanica]] series.

===== Overview =====
Introduced at [[SIHH]] in [[2016]], the Reverso Tribute Gyrotourbillon is the second [[Gyrotourbillon]] watch in the [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso]] family. Where [[2008]]'s [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Gyrotourbillon 2|Reverso Gyrotourbillon 2]] was an oversized watch with a technical look, the Tribute Gyrotourbillon is slim and understated. Although still partially [[skeleton]]ized, the Tribute Gyrotourbillon has more of a classic Reverso look, with the ornate "Métiers Rares" engraving visible only close-up.

The face of the watch shows the time (hour and minutes) with a large aperture below for the 60-second tourbillon to show the seconds. A [[day/night indicator]] disc is placed behind the dial between 9 and 11 and a [[balance wheel]] is placed opposite between 1 and 3. The reverse side of the watch is also transparent and more skeletonized, with time display in the center and [[second time zone]] shown on a disc behind the dial between 1 and 3.

The new [[JLC 179|Cal. 179]] is greatly simplified from previous Gyrotourbillon watches from Jaeger-LeCoultre, with just 385 components despite the [[complication]] of a [[second time zone]] and [[day/night indicator]] display. The outer tourbillon cage rotates every 60 seconds, but the inner case turns every 12.6 seconds. The most arresting feature of this new tourbillon is the hemispherical [[hairspring]], a remarkable innovation both technically and visually.

The Reverso Tribute Gyrotourbillon case measures 31 mm by 51.1 mm and is 12.4 mm thick.

The Reverso Tribute Gyrotourbillon was priced at €270,000 (US$300,000), about $50,000 less than its predecessor, the [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Gyrotourbillon 2|Reverso Gyrotourbillon 2]].

The Reverso Tribute Gyrotourbillon was released 85 years after the first [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso|Reverso]]. Like the [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso 60ème|60ème]] and [[Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso 70ème|70ème]] before it, the Tribute Gyrotourbillon marked a refresh to the entire Reverso line as well as a historic anniversary.
