·Yes, great find. There is no missing bezel and it looks entirely original including that crown that is more commonly seen on the Polerouter Super.
I wouldn't have described the lugs as bombe but I suppose they do twist inwards, it's just that they are more integrated with the case than the lugs seen on earlier Polerouter models.

·I take it all back! I see what you mean now Florent.
I had thought that you were referring to an inner metallic chapter ring of the type that you see on all early Polerouters. You do see these chapter rings on some of the 869115 dial variations e.g. 869115/02
On close inspection of the photo, I agree that the OP's watch seems to be missing a thin metallic outer bezel that surrounds the crystal. Here's a picture of another that shows that bezel.

I'm not sure that this reference had a bezel surrounding the crystal. Could it be that the OP's watch has the wrong crystal and tension ring fitted making it look a little odd?

·Correct or not, it will get rotation time on my wrist.
Any further assistance with adverts or examples to show, please feel welcome to post.
And, if UG was still imprinting their crystals at this point, this crystal is unmarked.
35mm wide
Was just excited finding this Heuer stopwatch with it....
Functions and times well.
