A CONTEMPORARY DESIGN
Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris Memovox
Inspired by a past icon from Jaeger-LeCoultre’s vast archives, the new Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris Memovox features a special alarm function made famous by the 1968 Memovox Polaris watch. This 50th anniversary timepiece has an iconic three-crown design: One for setting the alarm (top), one for rotating the bezel (middle) and one for setting the time (bottom). By the same token, the vintage cues on the dial call to mind the 1968 original—vanilla Super-Luminova, trapezoidal indices mixed with four Arabic numbers— while the triangle in the dial center serves as the alarm indicator. Issued in a limited edition of 1,000 pieces only, this model is a rare example of a movement that has been in production for more than 60 years after its creation.
