Universal Geneve Polerouter (?)
Hi all.
Need some help here.
Does anyone know anything about this watch? Didnt found any information about these Universal Geneves Polerouter without the polerouter printed on the dial.
Thanks a lot.
Best regards,
Mario.
Hello Mario! Welcome to our Forum! I´m surprised you didn´t find...
... info about this model of UG as it is a well known and rather iconic model launched in 1954 celebrating the first trans polar air rout inaugurated by SAS, the Scandinavian airways. That was a big achivement for air transport for that time, and this model was selected to be issued to SAS pilots.
Initally this watch was called "Polarouter" and later changed to Polerouter and you will find both markings on dials depending on the date of manufcture of the timepice.
I wrote a post some years ago showing an example I own. May be it is of interest for you to read it. I´m sending you the link by private message.
I wish you´ll enjoy participating here, and you are invited to show some photographs of your Polerouter.
Best cordial regards, Abel.
