Continuing the Space Compax theme with this old thing ... I know the pushers and the subdial hands ain’t quite right. I think it wears well anyway

Just got this last week, a lovely 1930s pre-Compur with triple color font on the dial 😀

After so many UG watches, somehow this is my first Polerouter, was being stubborn against the trend, but in the metal, I must agree, quite nice....

Uh no....the UG three hander jedi finally succumbs to the zeitgeist!

Hi All,

Posting here my newest acquisition

A lovely Compur in a Spillmann gold case.

Watch is impressive with its 38 mm case which is in great condition.

Dial is not new as expected from a watch from 1943-1945, but it has a lot of character.

Any feedback much appreciated

Hi All,

Any feedback much appreciated


This is the prettiest watch I've seen all day!🥰 Is the dial degradation/patina from the radium over time? It's slightly jarring from the razor sharp beauty of the case yet same time captivating...

Thanks for all positive feedback.
Watch was found on Instagram, and it is in great condition.
Seller told me it was stored for a long time, which I believe, based in case condition.
Really happy with it, as due to its big size, it is really impressive.
Looking for a nice leather strap for it
