I finally got one indeed
I finally got one indeed', as you rightfully spotted
Over the pat years, I thought that I would never close this gap in the memovox collection (due to overpricing in the collectors market on this specific watch), however I managed to get one ('68, as you found out) at a 'reasonable' price, so, I 'had' to have it.
However, I must say that I don't really enjoy the watch. I clearly had to have one (in a 'collector' logic), but the watch doesn't really speaks to me, and all the re-edition buzz of the recent years makes this watch not so special anymore.
I am happy I have one - to increase my memovox collection - but this 'polaris buzz' is a lot overdone I think, and there are many more other rare memovox to collect that have not been under the spotlight yet, and that I find more interesting.
But, I will be peased to join the polaris roll call in due course ot course !
What about the biggest Polaris Roll Call ever made?
Hi All, I suggest we all take the best pics of our Beloved Baby, and we post it or them in the biggest Polaris Roll Call ever made. As it needs a mininum of organization, I think we'll be able to make it in the very first days of May. Are you in? Best, Ni...
I'm definitely in!!!
I'm travelling tomorrow to pick up mine after a long abscence. Thank you for this great idea, Nico! Can't wait to see your pictures and what extraordinary setting you will share with us. See you soon, Alex
"In"...
...with at least one wrist ;-) How about adding some geographical reference Nicolas? Say, for example, the Polaris with a local monument in the background; or a view from the owner's front door; or the watch dropped in a plate of local cuisine, or around ...
a suggestion...
"or the watch dropped in a plate of local cuisine" (pplater) As a lover of all good food I would not want to miss the opportunity to see and perhaps read about local cuisine however please place the Polaris next to the plate and not drop it into the food....
categories ?
will there be a split between grandmas' and freshies ? I'm afraid I can only contribute to the oldies but goodies....
Doesn't matter, Clavi
Oldies too, of course! All the oldies, the '65, and the 68. All the new ones, without distinction. I've been told that you finally got it ( the oldies )? Best, Nicolas

You're right, Clavi
The Polaris is one thing, and a good thing, indeed, but there are other Memovoxes which should deserve a real attention, not to say ...Focus. You, me and a lot of others here and there have to speak about these Lovely Memovoxes, and I would like a lot to ...
I'm out...
unfortunately I do not own a polaris..... I have a memovox but it does not qualify cheers
Still waiting for mine
I'd love to show mine, but it's still on back order....6 months and waiting still. D.
Within 3 weeks, Moonway, it may be good!
Hope to count you in, my friend. Best, Nicolas

Great, Dje!
Between you, Patrice, Poy, Marv and me, we'll need some imagination... Best, my friend. Nicolas
Sorry but maby I have sold mine at that time
Can´t make up my mind about the missing glow from the index... I will post if I decide to keep it.
I understand, Peter
But wouldn't you regret it once gone??? Anyway, we'll start the Roll Call within 2 weeks, so if you can wait till here... Best, Nicolas
Good idea ... BUT ....
... can i put in a picture of me wearing a friends Polaris ? eeeeerrrrrrrr, don't hit me Nicolas Filip
Gift Wrap
I'm in but the only thing that you wil get from me is a picture of the grift wrapped packadge that my Polaris is still in. I know it might sound weird but I was so happy to find it that the only way I could justify buying it was to say it was for my birth...
I'm in if I can...
Use one of your pics...LOLOL... Mine are desperately horrible...LOL Cheers Mark
A bit of training, Mark
You have 2 weeks for that.... I'm sure you will get a beautiful one ( with the Help Of God ) )) Just kidding, my friend. But I remember one of the pics you took of some Pannies, there weren't that horrible. Best, my friend Nicolas
On behalf of the Amvox crew...
Nicolas, All of us Amvox owners feel left out and alone. Sort of like the uncool kids at school. Enjoy the roll call. I have been absent for a while, so wanted to say hello. Cheers my friend. Ut
Hey Lagauvulin
You're wrong, as you can attend if you own an Amvox I,; which is a reinterpretation of the Polaris! So you won't be out of topic! Hope all is well, and to see you more often here! Best, Nicolas
Thank you sir...
It is nice to be back, hectic few months of travel, but I look forward to being back. I always had time for your posts though as they brought a bit of sanity to my world. Plus, your pictures always transport me someplace fanstastic.
Great idea.. will join
will of course join the biggest Polaris Roll Call! Thank you in advance for organizing it, Nicolas! Regards, Herb (Had a wonderful 3 week holiday trip to the USA with my Polaris and my family to San Francisco, L.A, Las Vegas and New York) Made around 510 ...
Hi, Herb!
Can't wait to see your pics. I'm really happy to know that you will join this special Roll Call! Prepare your best pics, my friend. It will be soon, now. Very Best, Nicolas
I will join!
Hi Nicolas, Great idea. I will join of course with my polaris/amvox family. Thanks to you I can pick up my 65 boutique edtion coming saturday (will be in Paris from may 1 to may 3). I am only missing the vintage 65 (does anyone know a minty one for sale?)...
Of course, Christiaan
Hi, my friend. Of course we'll meet. I send you a PM. Great to know that you join the great Polaristi Family! As for the original '65, be sure that we are quite many to desperately hunt the same target...In Vain. But one day, for sure, our dream will come...
