Jaeger LeCoultre Q9068681 Polaris Date SS Blue Dial

The Jaeger-LeCoultre Q9068681 Polaris Date is a contemporary tribute to the emblematic 1968 Memovox Polaris, distinguished by its signature 42mm stainless steel case and richly textured blue gradient dial. The timepiece is powered by the in-house Calibre 899 automatic movement, a respected workhorse known for its robustness and refined finishing. The case features taut lines, fine bezels, and "glass-box" sapphire crystals—a nod to vintage design cues—while retaining water resistance befitting a modern sports watch. The dial showcases luminous indices and bold hands, paired with an inner rotating rehaut for precise timing, appealing to enthusiasts with a deep appreciation for functional heritage diver elements. A matching blue rubber strap, adorned with an intricate “Clous de Paris” motif, sets this limited edition (800 pieces) apart within the Polaris family. The piece is not just striking visually but offers practicality and everyday versatility, adeptly balancing dress and sport watch codes. Collectors prize this reference for its fusion of mid-century inspiration and contemporary execution, marking it as an essential within both Jaeger-LeCoultre’s modern lineup and broader neo-vintage collections. The Polaris Date Q9068681 stands as a testament to the manufacture’s commitment to technical and aesthetic excellence, making it a coveted acquisition for seasoned collectors and those new to the maison alike.
