POLARIS, THE REVIEW.
Some days ago, my Polaris came back from the Service Center, and I had the idea to make a review about it. 11 months waiting for it, but the waiting is worth it!!! So, I think this is the moment and the occasion to speak about this charismatic model, unde...
Wow, finally we
got we what payed for! The long wait for this review was certainly worth it! Now I am hyped and eager to see what comes out of this re-edition! Thanks for making the post Nico, I hope to see your restored beauty in April. Asi
Pola .... What!!?
:0) Great work as usual ... keep 'em coming Been real joy to read it .... cos I'm locked on Amvox Regards Damian
Christmas came Late
Hi Nicolas, Amazing stuff. You are a very lucky Polaris owner. Bill
We know about the remake - allegedly.
Coming out of a meeting I find your Polaris report – great! Concerning the remake at this years SIHH Jaw told us at another forum (with JLCs approval - allegedly) that " there will be 2 editions, one replicating the 1963 Polaris and the other is the reiss...
Herrk, things are said about the re edition of the Polaris
Too many things, IMHO. The truth is that nothing is still firm on this topic, so I prefer keeping the silence than speaking for speaking. Launch is still in April, with several Polaris, that's true. As for the design of each Polaris version, I guess, and ...
Even worst, Nicolas. We do have no ...
... clues at all of what will be inside the remake! The original Cal. 825 or the follow up out of the AMVOX1 Cal. 918 or Cal 912 or maybe some- thing entirely new? Well, patience is a virtue – unless you want to buy a pig in a poke. Cheers Christian
Well, for that , I have an information
But I can olny tell you that it won't be an old movement as the 825, and that normally, it will allow you a quick set of the date. Can't tell more for the moment. Best. Nicolas
Hear, hear, Nicolas! You are ...
... withholding information from the community! You should be ashamed! Well quick set for the date rules 918 out. So what is left is 912 or something new. Would 912 fit into a 42mm case? I think 912 is about 36.5mm wide, so that could be a problem. Also: ...
Yes, Herrrk, I'm ashamed! LOL
But I'm ashamed to say that I can't tell you more, even if you strongly tried to get me the worms out of the nose...( French Saying...LOL) Yep, new movement, but no more precision till it will be the time for it. As I previously said, some can say what th...
Stunning review as usual Nicolas......
not long to wait till we see the 'alleged' new beauty.....eagerly awaiting some pics..!!! So your Polaris was away for 11 months..!!! Do you have any 'before' and 'after' shots or is all the work internal..?? Andy.
Thanks, Andy! I'm afraid the comparison won't be THAT demonstrative
2 more months to see them in the Flesh!!! As for my Polaris between and before, it won't speak a lot because these 2 pics aren't macros... I had some scratches and dings on the case, now...Nothing. They kept the original plexy as they don't have anymore p...
Beautiful.....absolutely beautiful.....
Almost impossible to tell the difference between them so all the character is there as it should be, I guess most of the work was to the movement and a little polish of the case. Not long till I get to see some of your pieces in the flesh......is this Lon...
Excellent !
Nicolas, thank you for this great review ! The photos of the Master Compressor and Amvox really highlight how actual the Polaris remains. That's what one calls a classic, no ?-) Produced in a limited number, that's what I call an icon! And your watch is r...
Thank you Nicolas.....
Hi, Thank you for your review and pics Nicolas! That's a great work and very pleasing to learn so much about a mythical watch. Dje
Great post!
It took me a while to go through all the great pics and text. Thanks, Nicolas!
WOW!!
WOW Incredible post. Great history of the Memovox. I wonder how much different my MC Memovox would sound with that 'open' caseback!!??
Wow !
what an amazing job my friend ! I was lucky enough to see your Polaris in the flesh yesterday and it is a beauty....! By the way, I have found in my records more pictures of the "inners" of the baby. They might be of interest:...
Thanks, Jeff, foe the nice words, and
For the pics too! I was searching for a nice pic of the movement and of the interior of the Case Back, now I get them! Best! Nicolas
Who needs reference books
Awesome. Really helpful and insightful stuff. Don't ever stop.
Thanks for this friendly bump, Mr Baron. :)
So, now, you just have to feed it up with your pics! Best, my friend. Nicolas
i am using an onscreen keyboard because...
my usb sockets have blown. WIll be a while before i get replacement USBs so no Pics. Besides, i don't have "much" to show. Maybe by Friday?
See you on Friday, then! :)))
Take your pills with you, my friend, it seems that many nice watches are waiting for you! Best, Nicolas
How many pills?
I have taken the Polaris 65 now. Its in NY so will be a little while before i see it. Watch is mint except the missing outer caseback. Finding a "solution" to that will be great fun. But I am not sure I will go down the path of the 68 too.... but i have a...
Damn, I may be the one who will have to take pills. :)))
First enjoy the 65, and then you'll see if you take the path to the 68... Both are so different that it may be of interest to get them all. Best, my friend. Nicolas
My goodness, Nicolas, there's so much history in this one post . . .
. . . thanks so much, especially for the photos of the groovy cushion case Master Mariners - now that's a watch for the ages! Cordially, Art
Another great report Nicolas ! Great pics too !
I will definitly have to add a Polaris in my collection one day .
