Changing a dial might seem like a simple update, but it can make a huge difference in watches and at Jaeger-LeCoultre its more complicated than meets the eye. The Swiss watchmaker released a new Polaris this month, with a handsome ocean gray dial that was handcrafted via a complex process involving 35 layers of lacquer, three different finishes, and meticulous polishing. The result is a two-tone gradient dial that elegantly complements the 42 mm steel case and orange details. Priced at $14,900, the Polaris Chronograph Ocean Grey comes with two interchangeable straps in either blue-gray canvas or textured black rubber.
