Jaeger-LeCoultre adds graduated lacquer dial models to Polaris Chronograph family

Since re-introducing the line in 2018, JLC has positioned its chronographs at the luxury and most sophisticated end of a competitive market.

Jaeger-LeCoultre today added two fresh references to its Polaris Chronograph collection, both with interchangeable straps.

Since re-introducing the Polaris line in 2018, JLC has positioned its sporty three-handers and chronographs at the luxury and most sophisticated end of a competitive market.

Dials are made up of a graduated lacquer central disc and middle ring with applied hour markers, which is circled by an internal bezel with tachymeter scale.

Subdials at 3 and 9 o’clock are elevated with circular graining that contrasts with the shine of the lacquer.

JLC’s finely finished automatic Calibre 761 chronograph movement, which has a 65 hour power reserve thanks to twin barrels, is exposed by an exhibition case back.

Two new 42mm steel references come in dark blue and grey tones, both on steel bracelets that can be swapped out for a textured blue or black rubber strap with a Clous de Paris pattern or a beige canvas strap.

It is on sale from today for $14,300.
