Newsflash: Jaeger Lecoultre Polaris Date Green.
I could take some pictures of this new Polaris Date when I was at Watches and Wonders, and will review it a bit later, but here is a first picture, an official one, of it. 42 mm steel case, 13, 92 mm high, Cal 899 " new generation " which means 70 Hours p...
looks nice
How did you like it when handling it? It looks sharp!, however, not for me... when something is ¨trendy¨ like the green dials lately, it looses appeal to me... and in the case of Polaris, I think JLC raised the bar too high with the tribute version :P
My exact same feeling

By now I may have seen just one green watch too much to really get excited.
Other than that it is quite an attractive watch but please dear watch brands : no more green !!
Agreed, once again... But there is also this available. 41 mm.
41 mm case: In black or in blue. ...
Cool.. but why 42 mm? If i am not mistaken, previous polaris date is 41 mm.
Why enlarge without reason? And have they fixed the main problem with polaris : the upper crown was easily turned by accident because it does not screwed down.
This is looks a gorgeous variation in my opinion.
The dial is first not mat but shiny which enhanced the color vibrance of this color between green and black. The “degradé” is such that it makes a vintage look that remembers that Polaris is an old traditional model from JLC. The center is like the iris o...
