When I mentionned the real thing, I meant the strap.
Not the TTP which is in my opinion, an excellent Watch.
Time to try to find an original tropic, my friend!

Jaeger-Lecoultre Polaris 1968: Ask for the original!
Don't get me wrong, I am totally in love with the Tribute To Polaris 1968 ( 1965, too ), but when it comes to Vintage Polaris, I most often wear my beloved 1965, much less the 1968. But curiously, this is not the Polaris I most often wear, compared to the...
I think I understand
I have to say, I tried a lot of straps with the TTP65, and finally seem to have landed on the "original" Tropic, as well. The 1965 (vintage or tribute) is easier to match with a wide range of straps, I think, so the task was not as difficult as with the 1...
A pity the original strap on the TT Polaris is not that qualitative.
Did you try to find a vintage Tropic strap? A beauty, my friend, a beauty! Best, Nicolas
I did
The strap in my photos is a NOS Tropic rubber strap. It is much more durable than the original strap that came on the Tributes. Costly, but it will probably last forever. Best, respo

Guess, I would.. If I only could !.. But let me say.. ;))

Thanks !.. Have been looking for a while, not yet successful.. ;)
In fact, the black strap , exactly as you said, is the best match, enhancing the color- accents of the TTP, and makes her also fit for a easy evening .. - There she competes with my beloved TT DSA - EU, which is a cool companion Best, and thx for the enco...
I agree that the original Tropical is a great combo...
But personally I prefer this... :) Best Blomman ...
Agree with you. I really like the new look
Blommans choice is nice too, but somehow I like these watches with black. Wearing it ths weekend? Hagwe Joe
I agree with you
that the original is so very suitable for this watch and truly the watch look more beautiful . But the previous strap was also beautiful as this watch can make any strap suitable. I think that view will always go to the case and dial of the watch. I am al...
