The grand maison seems only to make new movements for watches over $100k. I like these new polaris dials but using the old tiny movements is endlessly disappointing.
I really wished they had expanded this exact layout...
with different color schemes. A Polaris "Geographic World" (as it's layed out) is SUCH a great complication and the new version just looks a little "wonky" IMO. This is a true "business beater." -Dean

(If this can make it to the market)
If only….
JLC had omitted the power reserve… The Geographic is a classic JLC complication amd in that perspective the merge of the Polaris and this complication, it makes a certain sense. After all, we’ve seen it in the Reverso and the Master Control lines. I once ...
I wish they would have left the 9 and 3 out and placed the power reserve and a date in those positions.
Right now the dial looks too chaotic without any symmetry.
