I just found this old advertisement regarding custom made Universal Geneva watches with Masonic, Rotary or Shriner dials. Has anyone ever come across one of these watches? If you have some please show some picture. Thanks for your input. J
Very interesting! I've never come across one before, but it looks they were using the early polerouter model for the base watch. Very cool
Possibly, but I see nothing indicating an automatic movement inside. These are likely thin manual wind dress watches. Universal made dozens of similar models. gatorcpa
I've only ever seen this case with their Polerouter line. If you have a reference to a manual wind movement in this case, I'd be interested to see. it. ,David
Just found a couple of these unique dials for sale. It still doesn't answer if they were made for simple manual or microtor movements although that case resembles the Polerouter Jet case. The diameter of each one is 27.8 mm. @Vitezi I added the pictures of the back.
I have certainly seen a Shriner dial at a local vintage watch store here in Singapore few years back. It was equipped with a UG hand-wounded movement (can't recall the exact movement) but at that time I thought this is just another "Asian-franken" piece of garbage so I didn't look into it closely. Until recently a few spare dials popped up on eBay (shown above) that made me recall the time I actual saw it in person.
[QUOTE = "Jonatan, post: 1025694, membro: 10465"] Ho appena trovato un paio di questi quadranti unici in vendita. Non sono mai stati così creati per la protezione dei dati Polerouter Jet.

Vorrei sapere a che modello appartiene. Cosa pensate? [QUOTE = "Jonatan, post: 1025694, member: 10465"] Ho appena trovato un paio di questi quadranti unici in vendita. Non risponde ancora se sono stati creati per semplici movimenti manuali o microtori, anche se questo caso ricorda la custodia Polerouter Jet. Il diametro di ciascuno è 27,8 mm.
