Good timing for Jaeger-LeCoultre partnership with Valextra

12/11/2012
Milan-based leathergoods manufacturer Valextra has extended its partnership with Swiss luxury watch brand Jaeger-LeCoultre.

Jaeger-LeCoultre celebrated the eightieth anniversary of its Reverso, the famous watch with a reversible face, in 2011 and commissioned Valextra to make the leather strap for its commemorative issue of the product.

Now, Valextra has made a whole handbag for the watch brand, with a detachable watch incorporated into the design. The wearer can slip her hand through the strap and carry the bag in such a way as to have the watch, the brand’s Rendez-Vous, positioned in the usual place on her wrist. Bag and watch can also be used separately.

Red and black colour options are available, but the product will only be made to order.
