Polo, during this vibrant time, evolved from a mere sport into a sophisticated pastime, consequently transforming sports clubs into the heart of social life. Notably, British polo players in India recognized the inadequacy of conventional wristwatches to withstand the demands of their sport, leading to the inspiration behind Jaeger-LeCoultre’s innovative solution—the Reverso watch.
