iconic look - original Gay-Frères bracelet
SoldThe unmistakable look of a Universal Genève Polerouter makes this model line so popular with vintage collectors. But not only visually, but also technically, the cult watch convinces with its in-house automatic caliber 69, which runs reliably to this day and is wonderfully suitable for daily wear.
The Polerouter Date here dates back to 1966 and, as the model name suggests, features an additional date display, stylishly housed in a trapezoidal window at 3 o'clock.
