The layout of the Polaris Chronograph dial is intuitive to read, featuring a central chronograph seconds hand to enable more precise reading of this key measurement. Balanced by the 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock, the sub-dial at 9 o’clock serves as a running indicator with a small seconds display.

In the sixties, a new era was born with the launch of the Memovox Polaris, a watch housed in an unconventional large case, whose alarm function elevated the piece as an iconic diving watch. This distinctive watch was a bold statement of intent from Jaeger-LeCoultre’s watchmakers and the same sense of dauntless ambition and thirst for adventure continues across the Polaris collection today.

The sapphire crystal case back reveals the automatic movement, Calibre 761 – a quintessential example of Jaeger-LeCoultre’s approach to watchmaking that combines high performance with mechanical elegance. The fully integrated chronograph movement features a column-wheel chronograph mechanism with vertical clutch and offers a 65-hour power reserve.

The Polaris Chronograph, designed to adapt itself to all of life’s adventures, is naturally accompanied by a package of two interchangeable straps : a blue-grey canvas strap and a black rubber strap textured with a ‘Clous de Paris’ pattern.
