My Reply
Hi All, Below is the reply that I received for JLC - not that dissimilar to what others have received and equally disappointing. Thank you again for your interest in Jaeger-LeCoultre. The luminescence applied to the hands & numerals, apparently does not work well on the markers, as indicated by the original orange dials that are no longer in production. From a technical standpoint, it is more challenging to apply the luminescence to the markers, than to the hands & numerals. Based on this reason and to stay true to the aesthetics of the original 1968 Polaris model, our Manufacture has decided to create the non-luminescent contrast of the markers on the dial. Without the use of tritium, the marker colors do not keep with the coloring of the original model. We have informed our office in Switzerland of your requests, however at this time we do not have any plans for any dial changes. Not to sure where to go from here. Best MSam
