Quick Visit to the London JLC Boutique
May 14, 2022,19:04 PM
I visited the London Boutique today to pick up an Amvox strap and drop off my Atmos for servicing. My thanks to Carmen and Steph for their help.
Some quick and dirty pictures:
Quick work - they already had the Polaris Date in green in the case. I am not normally a green person but I actually liked the muted olive green on this watch, in person.
The watches I really wanted to see in person were the Polaris Perpetual Calendars, not least because I love blue and I think their gradient dials are fantastic. I particularly wanted to try the steel version. In reality it felt a little light (compared to my VC Overseas Chronograph or large Rolex sport models) but it was very comfortable and the 42mm size is a great fit for me.
Although I went in thinking the steel would be my favourite, the pink gold version stole the show. It has the extra heft that I generally prefer and, naturally, has more “wow” factor but without being too ostentatious. The blue dial and blue rubber strap work very well together.
All the best,
Jon
