Looks to be a true dive watch...
Designed to the highest standards of diving regulations with incredible precision and mechanics, Polaris Mariner timepieces are officially ISO-6425 certified dive watches and even go beyond the specifications of this standard.
To meet the demands of diving sports and ensure maximum safety, Jaeger ‑ LeCoultre has exceeded the certification requirements for diving watches by tripling the water resistance to 300 meters (30 bar). The Grande Maison has also designed a screw-down crown to prevent involuntary movements, equipped with an orange safety band to warn divers when the crown is not fully closed, and has Super-LumiNova® coated the indexes and hour hands. minutes and seconds to ensure perfect visibility in the deepest waters.
The ISO-6425 certification of Polaris Mariner watches reinforces the diving standards of the Grande Maison with extraordinary precision in measuring time.

And it’s got that beautiful blue dial they brought out previously.

Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
Ha! You whine long enough they listen. Nice move Richemont, instead of admitting the fuck up with current “dive watch” Polaris line, quietly improve and make a beautiful blue dial Memovox. Me likey and this is most certainly will be mine
Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
They give it the screw crown, but remove lume from the hands.
Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
Hands are great! Enough lume yet you can still see the alarm behind the minute hand. Plus lume indicator on the second hand. Who does silver polished invisible second hand on a diver?!
Anyway all perfect improvements. Well done zhe-zhe
Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
Good move with the movement upgrade.

Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
Now that looks outstanding. I assume the dual crown Polaris will follow this upgrade to the Memovox?
I think the Polaris might've been one my favorite new watches in a while that I didn't buy on principle. And this kinda changes things...

Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong

Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
Looks like this is going to come in at around $20K. As much as I like JLC, at that price I'd probably go for the ROO Diver.
Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
Definitely is a really crazy price, but the pictures, and videos were free Andrew.
So will thank you very much for that, and then give it it's deserved !!
Just is amazing really. ..Thanks a lot for the news about it, along with info sir !!!

Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
No way! it’s $12,300 (not 12,600) on strap.
Now they fixed all the mistakes and want 7-8K for the fixes? Lol
Then they wonder when AD has to give them away at 30-35% off

Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
Right,
A lot of good it did the last time, as you can see they still have the limited version Polaris Memovox available on their own website for sale 3 years later since launch
Imagine if this was a limited edition Rolex, it wouldn't even become available for sale haha

Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
Unfortunately I am serious. The prices I've seen listed are £15,400 and €17,400, which convert to approximately $21K given today's exchange rates at my bank. Hey, but you get a bracelet and a rubber strap for that price
The date-only version is about $13K.
Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
Something is off. The date version is 7K. Let’s wait for official prices tomorrow

Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
A little better 17K for alarm and 11K for Date. Still want to see official pricing. Doesn't add up that a screw down crown update commands such a drastic price hikelogan2z wrote: ↑Wed Sep 30, 2020 1:19 pmJust basing this on what I've read for other geos.

Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
A little better. But for an additional $2K I still think I'd go for the AP Diver. No alarm but I rarely use that feature of my Master Memovox.Panerai7 wrote: ↑Wed Sep 30, 2020 2:18 pmA little better 17K for alarm and 11K for Date.

And the AP has two screw-down crowns

Personally I agree the AP is better spend but price aside I much prefer the JLC.

Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
Well if you take Alarm out. Date vs Date JLC is 11 and AP is 19, that’s quite a differenceJeep99dad wrote: ↑Wed Sep 30, 2020 2:50 pmCan you find the AP?logan2z wrote:A little better.

Re: New JLC Polaris Mariner Coming - Art's Dream Comes True
Yea, $17k for the Memovox and $11k for the three hand diver. The latter is 42mm and 13.92 mm thick.
