Polaris Grey II: The third and the last step...
After having found the right hands, I had to hunt the good alarm disc, to make it all correct...
It is now done, with the " Memovox GT " shaped as an arrow, which replaces the alarm triangle.
A detail which totally, deeply, radically changes the look of the watch.
Note that the alarm disc is not the same on the Lecoultre or Jaeger-Lecoultre Polaris II, as you can see here:
Another difference which appears on this side by side photo, the bezel...
On the Blue Lecoultre the minute indexes stop at 15, while they are continuous on the Grey Jaeger-Lecoultre Polaris II.
Now, one more, one last Polaris II, the red one, and I will officially declare the Vintage JLC Diving Theme closed!
Best,
Nicolas

Congratulations on obtaining this one...
...and good luck on finding and obtaining the red one. N
When I think that I missed the Red Polaris twice! :)
But my time will come... Best and thanks, Neil. Nicolas
Congrats !! .. Completing such an important step ..
.. I guess is a gratifying event , - mission - segment accomplished ; but - in a way - knowing just one more to go, (at least for me at times), may be containing a strange mixture of joy with a tint of " happy sadness", - reflecting about the roads there-...
Thank you, my friend.
You raised an important point: At the end of the " collecting road " what will I feel? Joy or sadness? I will put a coin on... Satisfaction. ;) Man, I've been running after these pieces for such a long time that I will feel some delivrance. :) And I have ...
Positively great!
It was worth the effort of finding the correct alarm subdial. And good luck on your last hunt!
The Red Polaris II will be an important find, yes.
It will allow me to close the Polaris Theme, as well as the Vintage JLC Diving watches. Exciting! ;) Best, and thanks, Marv. Nicolas
Please stop ...
Of like the Frank Zappa song, "The torture never stops". This Grey II is gorgeous. Cheers, Nilo
What a duo, Nicolas! :)
Just perfect! :) The only thing that could make this pic even better would be a "Tricoloure"! Good hunting, my friend! Best Blomman
Can't agree more, my friend. In this case, 3 is better than 2.
It seems that the Red escapes from me, lastly... But you know my determination. ;) Best, Nicolas
huge congrats...
... as Blomman said, please take a pic of all three colors together that will be all of us dying for :-) stefan
