Jaeger Lecoultre Polaris 1965. How do you like it?

Jaeger Lecoultre? 



Lecoultre with Dauphine Hands? 



Or Lecoultre Baton Hands? 



Before you wonder, Dauphine and Baton Hands are both correct for the Polaris 1965.

And yes, the Automatic Alarm Calendar wordings are only on the Lecoultre Polaris 65, not the JLC version which has a more sober " Automatic " mention.

A detail I like a lot is the size of the alarm luminous dots. Big and small. 

Indisputably an icon, this Polaris 1965. And tougher to find than the Polaris 1968, too. 

Best,

Nicolas

But I have weakness for the snakehands used on AMVOX Memovox

So was Tribute to Deep Sea chronograph no ?:)

I only think of the AMVOX I . Too biased to think otherwise . Great watch, of course, I prefer the Dauphine hands on this iteration.... Cheers, Filip

Of course,

that would be the more logical mindset . It also has to do with age LoL.... Cheers, Filip

Duly noted. ;)

Baton hands more practical due to better visibility,

but dauphine hands are more elegant. If forced to choose, I’ll take the latter.

american or euro? (no vintage lol)
