So many questions, Mo

1st iof all, there is no more SS 65 bversion available.
So, if you're in love with its look, you will have to go on the 65 platinum.
The retail is 25 000 Euros, and there are still available...
The platinum, besides its price, is indeed a superb watch, the dial is the same, and the look is really awesome.
You will appreciate the weight of the metal on your wrist, and I don't see the problem to get it in platinum.
The 68 ( not 67, by the way ) is still avaliable, but there are not many, so if you can lock one, do it. ( Retail is 10 500 Euros ).
There were only 190 hich came with the " wrong " dial, on 768 pieces.
I wouldn' t tae a decision on the collectibility, but on the appeal this piece can have for you.
If you're in love with, go for it, if not, pass on it.
I hope to see you joining the club, my friend!
Best,
Nicolas

Don't know if it's still there but a few days ago Selfridges in London had a new 68. I tried it on and fell in love with it. (also tried on the Navy Seals Alarm - yum!). Sadly the Polaris is beyond my meagre means but my longer term plan is to acquire one...
A similar dilemma Paul...

I would love this watch - '65 or '68, but an after market purchase from abroad squeezes me just a bit too much. I am hoping for a new sports alarm from JLC very soon - I have fingers and toes crossed for the next SIHH!!! Cheers David
