Care And Maintenance

The Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris Chronograph is a Automatic Winding watch meaning no extra effort is required to keep the watch running but still some conditions must be meet for the watch to be stored at its best. After all no one wants their 10 grand watch to get unwearable.

Maintenance Advice

• Keep the watch away from moisture.
• Keep it clean.
• Have it serviced by a professional.
• Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures.
• Wear it regularly or store in a watch winder.
• Don’t drop it.
• Don’t place near strong magnets or electronics.

Magnetism

A strong magnetic field may also hamper the movement of the watch making it completely stop or have disturbance in the movement. Worry not as the disturbance will only last while the watch is in the influence of the magnetic field.

Manual Winding

Being a manual-winding watch, it is recommended to wind your luxury watch every day in order to supply the movement with the power it required to run effectively over the following 24 hours. It is advised to do so even if you are not wearing it every day.

Only wind your Jeager-LeCoultre until you feel the resistance and do not try to wind it beyond the point of resistance as it might cause the motor spring to snap.
