I love the clean, organized aesthetic of most other Polaris models.

This watch is great, but for me, a regular GMT is a better fit. I don't travel enough to need the world time function. Completely understand the appeal though, especially for frequent flyers!

Touché, maybe there is a bit of hex-head bias here! In all seriousness though, you're right, the Polaris needs a little je ne sais quoi. Stuck between the Sub and the high-end divers, it needs something to truly set it apart.

The older model had its merits, but the addition of the rotating bezel is a real improvement. It streamlines the functionality and adds a nice touch of interactivity.

Good catch on the thickness! The standard Polaris is so comfortable. Here's hoping they can find a way to keep the three-hand version nice and thin too.

A few tweaks, it could be even more amazing.

Imagine if the city display window had a sleek, streamlined look. Maybe an aperture for the AM/PM indicator could further balance the dial aesthetically.

And wouldn't it be cool if JLC tapped into the Polaris line's super compressor heritage? Think about it, rotating the movement and swapping the crown side for city adjustment could create a true super compressor layout! Plus, exposing the entire city ring like an internal bezel would be a fantastic nod to that style. It would really reinforce the sporty spirit of the Polaris collection!

These are just some ideas to build on the already impressive design. The potential for this watch is truly exciting, and I can't wait to see how JLC continues to innovate.
