Jaeger-LeCoultre Q9068650, 2024 (Approximation), 42 mm, Grey

The Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris Date Q9068650 is a modern reinterpretation of the brand’s iconic 1968 Memovox Polaris, a diver’s watch originally designed with an alarm to signal low oxygen levels. Released as part of the 50th anniversary collection in 2018, this model pays tribute to its heritage while embracing contemporary design and technology. Although it no longer includes the alarm function, it retains the inner rotating bezel and robust construction, offering an impressive 200 meters (20 ATM) of water resistance. The 42mm stainless steel case houses the in-house Caliber 899, which delivers a 70-hour power reserve and smooth automatic performance. The gray dial, accented with Arabic numerals and bold markers, offers excellent legibility and a sporty yet refined aesthetic. With its rugged build, modern movement, and historic roots, the Polaris is ideal for everyday wear or underwater adventure. It’s a sophisticated tool watch with a legacy of innovation and functionality.
