Collectors prioritize this reference for its caliber 3285 movement, which features a Chronergy escapement and a 70-hour power reserve. The \"Polar\" variant is distinguished by its white lacquer dial, black-outlined hands, and indices coated in bright blue Chromalight luminescence. The 42mm Oystersteel case retains the brushed fixed bezel with a 24-hour scale, though this generation features thinned lugs and a widened bracelet for improved proportions compared to its predecessor, the 216570. On the secondary market, prices typically range from $10,500 to $13,000 depending on condition and provenance. A notable production detail is the return to a matte black finish on the base of the hands, correcting the \"phantom\" floating effect seen on previous iterations.", "score": 201}]}
