Summary

  • Jaeger‑LeCoultre debuted the unreleased Reverso Tribute Monoface “Or Deco” Cocktail watches at the Met Gala 2026 red carpet
  • Finn Wolfhard and Tyriq Withers wore gem‑set white gold models with sapphires and emeralds, both accompanied by matching Milanese mesh bracelets

Jaeger‑LeCoultre revealed its new Reverso Tribute Monoface “Or Deco” Cocktail watches at this year’s Met Gala, with actors Finn Wolfhard and Tyriq Withers sporting the unreleased timepieces as they arrived on the red carpet.

Cocktail watches originated in the glamorous Art Deco era of the 1920s, designed as much to be stunning jewelry as to tell time. They were popular accessories at elegant social gatherings. The Reverso Tribute Monoface “Or Deco” series captures the spirit of these sparkling, gem-covered watches from the 1920s and 30s. Actors Wolfhard and Withers both wore versions crafted from 18k white gold, adorned with 46 baguette-cut sapphires or emeralds.

Jaeger‑LeCoultre has announced a final addition to the collection: a model crafted from 18k pink gold and embellished with rubies. The gemstones are all set using the brand’s unique rail-setting technique, which creates a continuous and brilliant stream of color around the watch case.

These small, elegant watches measure just 45.6mm by 27.4mm and are only 7.56mm thick. They’re powered by a manual-wind movement that runs for 42 hours on a single wind. Each watch is limited to 30 pieces per gemstone style and features a delicate Milanese mesh bracelet made from over 10 meters of gold thread. Due to the exceptional craftsmanship and valuable materials, these exclusive watches range in price from $120,000 to $150,000, depending on the gemstones used.
