Universal Geneve Polerouter Jet Linen Dial 20355/4
Universal Geneve Polerouter Jet Linen Dial 20355/4
Universal Geneve created some absolutely spectacular, innovative and beautiful watches in the early to mid 20th century, with the Polerouter perhaps being their most well known line.
Originally named the Polarouter, it was originally penned by a young man named Gerald Genta, whom you may have heard of, and was created to celebrate the Scandanavian Airlines’ flights made across the North Pole, hence Polarouter.
This particular version is known as the ‘Jet’, which features a 35mm straight lugs case with turbine-motif on the outer edge of the linen dial. The dials shows some light marks and scratching, but is very good for it’s age and is original to the watch. We don’t generally call things unpolished here at WV, so we’ll say this case is extremely thick and sharp and looks to have had little refinishing in it’s time. It of course has nicks, scratches and dings as to be expected.
The original hands are in excellent condition.
It’s powered by an in-house micro rotor automatic movement, something that UG were famous for as they popularised this style of rotor.
Currently mounted on a beautiful Italian handmade ColaReb Spoleto Stitching strap.
Unknown service history. Winds smoothly, and keeping time in the vicinity of +30-45 secs per day.
Comes as watch-only. No accessories.
