The perpetual calendar is considered one of the most complex horological complications to master. Athletic and elegant, the new Polaris Perpetual Calendar in pink gold invites the modern-day adventurer to experience an almost-perpetual precision. Beneath the sapphire case-back, the new Jaeger-LeCoultre Caliber 868 designed, produced and assembled in the Manufacture reveals its 351 components. The innovations embodied in this movement include a moon phase in both hemispheres, equipped with a retrograde hand for the southern hemisphere. Enhanced by the pink gold bezel and lugs, the lacquered dial features a superb gradient of blue tones. Against this oceanic blue, the luminescent hands and hour-markers stand out, alongside the perpetual calendar and moon phase indications. The Polaris Perpetual Calendar is also offered with a duo of easily interchangeable straps – one in blue rubber, the other in black alligator with a folding clasp.
