JLC Beverly Hills Boutique
Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute to 1931
Here we have PuristSPro's TimeOut forum moderator DRMW taking a close look at the new JLC
RT1931..........
The Jaeger-LeCoultre Beverly Hills Boutique staff created a cozy and
intimate atmosphere inside the boutique. A table for 9 guests
was arranged in the center of the room that allowed everyone to join in
for a round table discussion:
While the
highlight of the event was the chance to examine the prototype JLC
Reverso Tribute to 1931, Seth pulled out another surprise, a vintage JLC
Reverso:
Our special 3
course meal for the evening started with fresh warm baked bread:
Our menu
designed by the Luxe Hotel Rodeo Drive culinary staff. Some
very nice choices on the menu:
Our starter was
a salad of baby mustard greens, candied walnuts, with sliced pears and
crumbled goat cheese and a tart lemon dressing:
For the main
entree, several of the guest including myself decided on the filet
mignon with a generous portion of crispy pomme frittes and stir fried
snow peas and carrots. The steak was topped with a light
chimichurri sauce:
While others
chose the grilled salmon with rice pilaf:

Another wonderful event by the JLC BHB, it was a pleasure to see fellow PuristS and great way to start the new year. A big thank you to Seth for his hard work in bringing the Reverso Tribute to 1931 to the local L.A. area collectors. Looking forward to the announcement at SIHH about the Special Piece!
Regards,
