Introduced in 1954, the model was released in partnership with Scandinavian Airline System (SAS), with the goal of creating a timepiece that was resistant to higher magnetism experienced in the North and South Poles. The Polerouter is also coveted for being a Gérald Genta design and at only 24 years old at the time, it is considered his first great contribution to horology. Genta would go on to design two of the most iconic pieces of the 20th century with the Nautilus and Royal Oak and more. Today, collectors are coveting vintage \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vintage-universal-geneve\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Vintage Universal Genève watches at Collectors Corner NY\"\u003eUniversal Genève watches\u003c\/a\u003e as much as ever, helped by the recent release of the Polerouter book in late '23. It was also around this time that the news of Breitling acquiring UG broke, which many collectors hope will further invigorate appreciation for the brand with its re-inception.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn offer is a stunning 18k yellow gold example with very desirable non-luminous dial\/hands. It is also a non-date model which is arguably more practical and it houses a high-grade UG micro-rotor cal. 218-9. This piece has remained in gorgeous vintage condition with a highly well preserved sunburst segment dial showing minimal signs of age. The case is equally impressive and retains thick, evenly proportioned lugs with sharp edges. It retains deep, crisp hallmarks and very legible ref.\/serial numbers which is also very desirable for UG collectors. Finding a completely correct Polerouter from the crystal to crown is getting harder each year and we're thrilled to offer this piece in the shop which checks all the boxes one could hope for.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Universal Genève","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67748740628756,"sku":null,"price":10900.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0733\/8603\/3428\/files\/universal-geneve-polerouter-de-luxe-microtor-10375-5-yellow-gold-hero-vintage-watches-collectors-corner-ny_0fca5e1a-281b-452d-a878-1d0f6d297d51.jpg?v=1792972776","url":"https:\/\/collectorscornerny.com\/products\/universal-geneve-polerouter-de-luxe-microtor-10375-5-yellow-gold","provider":"Collectors Corner NY","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
