    Hi guys,
    I am becoming a Polerouter fan. I think the design is great and variations are interesting l. Also the price is still reasonable :thumbsup:

    That chocolate dial one is my favourite and I don't recall having seen one like it before. What a beautiful collection!

    "Becoming"? I'd say you're far beyond becoming! ;) Nice collection and thanks for posting. P.s. What's your rotation approach? I tend to wear the black dials during the week and the white dials on weekends and/or casual Fridays at work.

    How many Polerouters did it take to realize you are becoming a fan?

    :):cool:

    Your Polerouter posts are one of the reasons I got into it...so should be thanking you for such a good works:thumbsup:
    I have no rotation approach...just wear my vintage watches on workday because they are too fragile for my 2.5 years old daughter during the weekend....one day i was sitting with her on my sofa and heard a noise...turned out she was tapping a big coin on my watch!!...lucky it was a modern watch with a sapphire crystal:D

    Speaking of, I let mine try them on once in a while. Am planning on taking some pictures of her wearing some of the pieces soon - when she's (much) older and gets to keep all of them, she'll have a nice point of historical reference. (can you tell i'll use any excuse to take a wrist shot?)

    I keep telling new watch enthusiasts/collectors that the Polerouter and pie pan Constellation are two of the best sub $2K watches on the vintage market. Great collection, btw.

    What are the price range of these and do they top out at 34mm? Been shying away due to lack of knowledge, but love the design. I've instead started picking up Alpinist Champions and Sportsmans which rock a similar vibe.

    If i'm not mistaken, @aap might have one or more of these - he might have some insight for you. Check out the "Polerouter Knock-off" thread for further inspiration with similar vibe.

    Yeah, just what the world needed, more Polerouter fans, as if they weren't pricey enough. Leave them alone, I’m warning you, these are ugly, overpriced and overrated little mother******s.

    From my part, as I am a good soul, I’m doing the best I can to free the world from this plague:

    You are a veritable Saint, @gop76: taking on the world's supply so the rest of us don't have to. I applaud the sacrifices you are making on our behalf - like a pied piper, please continue to keep this pestilence out of our homes/off of our wrists.;)

    P.s. Is that an Electric?

    I don't need the Nobel Prize, i just need the money that comes with it. How many of you i would release from this curse, with one million to spend in Polerouters...
