Description: On auction is a very rare mid 60's to early 70's Universal Geneve Polerouter in a beautifully preserved condition. Running on the in-house MicroRotor automatic movement from Universal Geneve in caliber 1-69. The original belt was very stiff and cracking all over, so it has been replaced by a brand new aftermarket leather strap in black. The original swiss made buckle from Universal Geneve was kept, and will be included with the watch. The original red Universal Geneve box, certificate of guarantee (empty) and World Service papers are also included. The case was ultra sonically cleaned, so everything should be very clean and ready to wear. Like with most vintage mechanical watches, i cannot guarantee an accurate timekeeping. Regulating the watch may be needed if accuracy is required. Since these are over 50 years old, a full service is highly suggested for daily use. More information about the watch will be described below. If you have any questions, feel free to send me a message.Will ship Globally.
