Polaris Date Green
Inspired by the 1968 Memovox Polaris, the Polaris collection embodies Jaeger-LeCoultre's spirit of sporty elegance. Practical functionality, vintage design codes and modern-day benchmark timekeeping performance are three iconic Polaris characteristics. Now, with the addition of a deep green dial, it adds a new dimension to life's everyday adventures.

A signature Jaeger-LeCoultre model, the Memovox Polaris has been a focal point of exclusive and practical watchmaking since its launch in 1968. Dive watches are a staple in sports watch collections, but few models have endured as well as the Memovox Polaris, retaining a loyal following through the decades.

The Polaris Date, introduced in 2018, was inspired by the 1968 Memovox Polaris, one of the most popular Polaris watches of all time. This design lends the Polaris Date a robust feel, while a vanilla-colored luminous coating lends it a vintage touch. In 2022, the Polaris Date will be available with a deep green gradient dial.

With a lacquered, double-gradient dial featuring a variety of textured finishes, the Polaris Date ensures high legibility without compromising on design. From the rotating inner bezel to the minute track, each key element of the dial features a balanced mix of opaline, grained, and sunburst finishes for easy recognition. The color gradient ranges from light olive to deep rainforest green, revealing various hues depending on the angle of light reflection. A translucent lacquer coating gives the dial an appealing depth, highlighting the vanilla-colored indices and ensuring perfect legibility.


High-level performance in harsh environments is at the heart of the Polaris collection. Operated by the crown at 2 o'clock, the rotating internal bezel is a key feature of a true diver's watch, allowing for highly accurate reading of offset times and countdowns. The Polaris Date features a transparent caseback and is water-resistant to 200 meters, making it equally at home in urban environments as it is in the depths of the ocean.

The Polaris Date's 42mm case, with its satin-brushed surfaces, creates an understated impression, complemented by the polished chamfers on the case lugs and the narrow bezel. This draws attention to the dial, which can be admired through a sapphire crystal that evokes the Plexiglas crystals of mid-century timepieces.

For maximum versatility, the Polaris Date comes on a green rubber strap with an Easy Change system. The strap is perfectly compatible and can be quickly and easily swapped with a wide range of Jaeger-LeCoultre bracelets and straps.

Highlighting the robust, matte-finished case construction, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris Date's new green dial represents a timepiece suited to any environment on Earth. And vanilla-colored Super-LumiNova® indices, evocative of the beauty of aging, add a touch of elegance to its heritage. The 42mm stainless steel case is equipped with the latest generation Caliber 899 with a 70-hour power reserve. Now, more than ever, the Polaris is an elegant sports watch for a life of adventure.

Prior to its release, the Polaris Date Green will be available for pre-sale at the official e-boutique from May 12th. Customers who purchase at the e-boutique during the pre-sale period from May 12th to June 12th will receive a special Jaeger-LeCoultre Moleskine notebook as a gift.
