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 ...

Jaeger Lecoultre Polaris 1965. How do you like it?

This is a classic for all times.. I own the lastest version of this ref because of you.:))

Wow, now that's a great compliment.

I am going to have to double up on that compliment.

Thanks, George!

Both are great

Which were a fiction... ;)

So was Tribute to Deep Sea chronograph no ?:)

Yes, indeed! +1

This is why it is an icon.

Whenever I see this watch....

Funny. When I see an Amvox I, I always think of the Polaris. :)

Of course,

Dauphine hands for me for this marvel !

Duly noted. ;)

:))))

Very few examples in the wild.

Yes, around 500 were made, and much less still alive AND in good condition AND correct.

Baton hands more practical due to better visibility,

That I don't know. At the beginning, I was like you, I preferred the Dauphine hands. But with time passing, I was more pleased by the baton.

My favorite round classic JLC other than DSA

The DSA is the king, for me. Which is a strong statement, as I love the Polaris.

american or euro? (no vintage lol)

Both. It is very hard to say which one would be my favorite between the European or the US...

you are the king of evil vlad,

I think the american is more unique.

The Seamaster 300 shares the same case ( HF ) and was issued two years before the DSA. As for which one is morre unique and gorgeous, that is a delicious dilemma I couldn't solve, till now.

Now that's true. I have a standing to maintain. :)))

Still hopinh for that Ive-esque limited edition to happen :)

yes yes yes 😍

You never miss an opportunity. And rightly so! :)

Hmmmmmmmm, me too!
