looks like luminescence on markers are still lacking
It looks like the upside down triangle marker is now luminescent, a major lapse of design in the previous compressor memovox. Can that be confirmed?
However, the secondary markers do not look it, nor the dots leading from 12'oclock to the 15 marker (look at the first and second pictures of the pro geographic, i.e. the first two pictures). I think JLC needs to realise these are important, if they are to be serious about diving watches, and not just copying old bezel designs.
Having said that, again I am very excited about this range, after being excited about the previous extreme LAB posts!

When SIHH 2007 is closing its doors in a few hours, I'm happy to share with you the following report about what is a new range of watches from Jaeger-LeCoultre. All fall and winter long we've had rumours about a new diving watch, neo-Polaris or not. This ...
No there isn't
and of course, not really necessary. No real need for 1000M rating too, I guess.... Cheers, Asi
Is blue last colour visible and so what anyway?
I don't believe blue is the last colour visible, data I've seen from Googling is saying violet. And that agrees with my notion of the absorption corresponding to wavelength, i.e. the last colour of the rainbow wins. Is it about colour though? I'm not so s...
The blue highlights on these watches are luminescent,
...so a dark environment at depth would in fact improve contrast, not hinder it. The colours at the shorter end of the wavelength spectrum should really penetrate less well through water, not better - due to a phenomenon known as Mies scattering. I'm not ...
Women have more than Men....no?
Tony, I believe that women have 4 types of cone cells whereas men have only 3 types. Is this correct? So, how does a light blue dial colour work for female divers; if there were such things? Do they just divide the spectrum into 4 sections equally or do t...
