I have always been a huge fan of Universal Genève, specifically the Polerouter in this Tuxedo style design, it captures the very essence of UG in my opinion.
The watch was designed by the late Gerald Genta during the 60s. This watch features many enviable qualities, among them being that outer reflected mirror rehaut, that sets the glossy black crosshair dial off perfectly. Then the sharp twisted lugs case with wide bezel gives a depth and presence on the wrist, and you see something different in each tilt of the wrist..
The watch has the original trapezoid crystal and big UG crown.
The microtor is in great shape with no scrape (common with these) and has been recently serviced.
The case does have the serial and reference engraved on the caseback which might not be visible in our pictures.
The watch can come paired on the pictured calf grain tan or a desert Pebro strap.
