Steel bezel Never seen a gold bumper polerouter in standard case... only in deluxe style case... 18k w Bombay lugs I thought came out with microrotor ..... Case not signed , looks to be French hallmarks eagle head? Anyone want to comment ? Good Hunting Bill
That looks put together. Other than the steel bezel and case you pointed out. The lumed hands with that dial is strange, no lume on the dial.
There are a couple of examples of this reference here https://thespringbar.com/blogs/guides/universal-geneve-polarouter#heading123 Even the two seemingly genuine examples shown there are unusual. They are quite late to still have the bumper movement and they have a 6-key caseback, which is more usually associated with Polarouters (with the steel and gold capped versions at least). I think the dial and hands are ok on the eBay example - I think the dots on the dial would originally have been lumed. However I agree with the questions raised above regarding the case and bezel/chapter ring. It does look as though it has been put together.
