This unique Reverso has been customized by Zep in enamel and pink gold.  It will be auctioned by the Artcurial auction house on November 29, 2011 in Paris for the benefit of  Monaco Association against Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy”.  It is always nice to see people coming together in support of a good cause.

The artist had this to say about his collaboration with Jaeger-LeCoultre -


"I have always been fascinated with the miniaturization and the aesthetics of mechanical movements. The idea of slipping Titeuf into a Reverso with its parts so complex and subtle seemed obvious to me. It is also reminiscent of Charlot of Modern Times. I hope that my character will not impede the legendary precision of the Reverso..." - Zep
