I make the assumption...
that you are primarily talking about the 68 version. I do not believe the 65 version is a candidate for regular production in the future.
As far as the 68 goes...is there enough general interest in this watch and if so how many to produce and what price point is the right one.
Not to mention the massive marketing exposure the limited edition Polaris was given ( as a LE ). Might be a PR nightmare to come back around the other way.
The Polaris name is so tied to that 68 version that it would not seem right to use for a re-worked design.
Having said all of that, this is a business...so...???

NEW MODELS...
I wonder what the chances are of JLC introducing something fabulous like the Polaris re-issue as a regular model instead of limited editions which, although not neccesarily over-priced are virtually impossible to get hold of. Personally, I would have like...
Hi, David
About the Polaris, I think it's a bit too late to produce it in a regular version, as the watch is already released in LE... What will people who buy it while presented like a LE think if they see that, finally, it is not a LE? Just my opinion, of course,...
POLARIS ...
in regular version (not LE) seems fine to me if the price is a bit more human ... . As i am now living near Nicolas; 2nd bridge to the left; 44th brick from the right; i don't have to worry a lot about buying a JLC. But in the future (when my stock might ...
Room for manoeuvre?
Maybe there is room for manoeuvre with regards to a normal production of Polaris type watches. I bought my Compressor Diving GMT thinking that it would be an LE. They have now brought out the same looking watch as a standard production model, except it is...
Sincerely, Bretta,
I was not that happy to see the non LE of the Diving GMT, in 46 mm. I think that JLC would have done better to not present the 44 mm Diving GMT as a LE, for, 1 year after, release the 46 mm Diving GMT non LE..; In this case, both 44 and 46mm would better ...
I think...
Hi Nicolas, I believe that they could produce a watch that was very similar to the Polaris, although not exactly the same, whilst still respecting the 768 limited edition. After all, they have already set the precedent before by producing a LE 44 and prod...

Good points so far...
... I don't disagree with anyone's comments so far. I find the idea of LEs irritating at times, but that's from a selfish point of view. By the same token, I understand and respect the idea of LEs, particularly in the case of the Polaris tribute. For my p...
personally i think that there are too many LE's from too many brands
why do companies feel the need to limit the number made? every brand is overflowing with LE's some(well to be specific 1) make virtually all their models LE's which pretty much defeats the whole appeal of an LE. if there is a very good reason for producin...
Well said, Graham
I share your ponit of view, and even JLC makes too many LE Watches, as for example the EWC different series, the DBS in titanium ( while it is ok in RG because any Amvox II existed before in RG ), and some few others... As for the Polaris, it is a bit dif...
MEMOVOX!
Sorry for the shouting, but what about a new memovox (or master reveil) in a non LE. 38 to 40 mm would be fine thank you and within it the new movement used in the new Polaris. Black or silver dial? I would settle for either. Now come on you Swiss magicia...
