A new member of the Polaris family is born, today. The Polaris Geographique World Time. 

I will give you more informations and review the watch in due time, but here are some key informations and the first pictures. 

The case is in steel, 42 mm big, and not too thick: 11, 54 mm. The proportions will certainly be excellent in the real life, which I will confirm you as soon as I see the watch. 


The movement is the Cal 936, so nothing new, here. 

The dial has received a superb blue hue, which we are not used to see. 


The real question is to know if it is a Geographique or a world time watch. For me, it is a world time with a second time zone. Which is quite original! 

See though case back. 


This is a limited edition of 250 pieces, which will be available through the Jaeger Lecoultre Boutiques, only. 




What do you think? 

Best,

Nicolas

Typical JLC Geographic layout, but now with a world time complication added as well. An obvious (but no less good) complication to add. Good dimensions. No quibble with 40-42mm, even if I think 40mm is the best size (for me). The movement is a bit diminutive viewed through the caseback, but not a deal-killer by any means. Importantly, the watch is not very thick (although not thin either). Ca. 11.5 mm for these complications seems like a respectable size. I really like the gradient blue-black di

42mm may be alright. I struggle at 44mm as with some other pieces. I really like the look but again seeing the black and blue dial in person will be important. Dave

on both the revolving ring and the second (small) dial? And the crown at 10 is adjusting which time zone is shown on those two indicators? I like it. Mike

A sporty " Geographique ", after the Master Compressor version. Best, Nicolas

I dig the dial... AP-esque smoked blue, at probably a much lower cost!! Excellent.
