Origin of Jaeger-LeCoultre
Jaeger-LeCoultre SA, or simply Jaeger-LeCoultre, is Swiss luxury watch and clock manufacturer based in Le Sentier, Switzerland. Founded in 1833 by Antonie LeCoultre, the company is famous for its hand made watch, designed and manufactured within its own workshops. It was also the first of its kind to introduce this approach to the watch making industry, revolutionizing the way watches are made today.
Introducing Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris Date
With a distinctive dual crown format that evokes of the compression case dive watches of the 1960, the 2018 Polaris Date is a perfectly desirable watch. The inner rotating timing bezel significantly improves its utility without the visual bulk of a conventional dive watch.
Design and Development
The 2022 Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris Date is a boutique edition and is available exclusively from Jaeger-LeCoultre e-commerce for a month. The Polaris Date perfectly blends functionality with refinement, illustrating the fine watch making tradition of the manufacturer. The design of its dual crown and its compression case is preferred among most watch buyers.
