From the perspective of the history of modern horology, the Universal Genève Polerouter holds a special corner all to itself. 

In many ways the Polerouter, with all of its variety, is the story of modern Swiss Watchmaking. 

This particular piece is not your typical Polerouter! A Polerouter III, this reference has done away with the twisted lug, round case standard, instead using a 70s classic cushiony tank with rounded ends and an industrial appeal. The strap integrates directly into the case, allowing the piece to wear a bit smaller than it would normally. 

Another interesting feature on this piece is that it has a 'tapisserie' dial much like what you might find on a Royal Oak. Instead of a simple date function, this example is outfitted with a Day-Date complication in French, which adds a bit of intrigue to the watch. 

Automatic winding and powered by a classic Polerouter micro-rotor movement, you get all the historical chops of Polerouter movement prominence but packaged in a different aesthetic. It works really well. 

This example is practically unworn, with the original caseback sticker fully intact. The Polerouter is one of the coolest watches in the vintage game. This Polerouter III might be even cooler. We’ll let you be the judge!
