1966-1967 Universal Genève Polerouter Date Micro-Rotor Ref. 869115/06

This superb Universal Genève Polerouter Date, reference 869115/06, was manufactured in 1966-1967 (serial number 2477xxx). Presented in excellent overall condition, its 35mm case retains its original proportions and finishes, and its dial is a typically vintage anthracite grey with luminescent material dots (tritium base) at the hour markers and on the hands, perfectly patinated to a warm and attractive beige. The automatic micro-rotor movement, Universal Genève calibre 1-69, has been celebrated by collectors for decades. Along with the distinctive elements of the steel case with stylized lugs, the crown, and the dial, it contributes to the inimitable charm of the Polerouter, designed by the illustrious Gérald Genta for Scandinavian Airline Systems (SAS). A highly sought-after piece!
