Hi all. I have been trying to enter into the world of vintage watches. So in the last weeks or so I have been researching what could be my first (vintage) watch. What are your thoughts on this https://www.chrono24.com/universalgenve/universal-geneve-polerouter-date--id18335937.htm My budget was 1500-2000 but this one might be worth extra 1,000 I like that it doesn't have too much signs of wear (i think). Looks unpolished and most importantly i can see box and original papers, which i understand its rare. More info here https://www.chrono24.com/universalgenve/universal-geneve-polerouter-date--id18335937.htm Thank you very much!
The ad says “no box no papers”. No far off eBay asking prices, but check the sold listings, they are considerably lower.
IMO: clean and -as usual for a golden watch- a "safe-queen". - 10% with papers should be OK. ATB Jo ps: a cross-hair dial looks a little bit cooler
Condition looks very good to me. https://universalgenevepolerouter.com/ Looks at this site for more info on the polerouter, has just about every reference they ever made listed.
