Looking forward to seeing better quality photos of the dial - you've got bigger balls than me to buy off those photos.

Wonderful collection of Pola/erouters, and wonderful (self-indulgent ;-) post! As for your Polarouter, I did not see the original thread that you refer to, so this comment may have been well-covered by now, but I think there is very little chance that the current dial and case originally went together. Someone may have updated a newer Polerouter with a Polarouter dial, but that would be strange considering the good condition of the Pola dial. One would assume that the original case would have been in comparable condition, unless the Pola dial is a redial, which cannot be determined from your photo. What do you think? (Can you post a link to the original thread?)

Have you received it yet? I was in negotiation with the seller on C24 but it didn't work out. Glad someone here got it.

No the watch hasn’t came yet. seller forgot to declare the value so it’s held up in customs. 🤦

Nice dry coolish day. Walking the dog with my 5166.

The 264 showed up there is some stamps on the top left lug. my phone’s camera can’t really make it out too well.

I traded my 20217-5 for a 204612-2

Did I make a mistake?
Both look very nice... I have both a bumper and a micro-rotor movements, and I really like the bump on the wrist! Now, bumper movement pieces can be a bit difficult to get, less accurate etc ... Still, I like them. I don't need the accuracy on my day-to-day life, and the bumper could get services on more regular basis I guess.

As said, both are stunner! The tuxedo is in my opinion a bit more elegant, the white one is perhaps more versatile (casual but still elegant).

perhaps only in that you traded instead of added? They both look great.
