    Hi OF!

    I have for sale an excellent example of a Universal Geneve Polerouter Date from 1963.

    Ref: 204612-1
    Serial Number: 2,321,335
    Case material: Stainless steel
    Case diameter: 35mm without crown, 19mm lug width
    Movement: 218-2 - Automatic, Micro-rotor movement, date function, 28 jewels, 18,000 beats per hour, approx. 57 hr power reserve

    Condition Report
    Dial: All original. Silver sunburst dial is in perfect, un-refinished condition. The tritium lume on the dial and hands have hardly aged. Any marks you see are on the crystal. Original crystal with trapezoid date cyclops.

    Case: The case is largely unpolished and sharp, but the upper right lug shows some wear. Signs of wear throughout. The caseback has some tool marks. Original crown

    Movement: the Universal Geneve 218-2 was overhauled earlier this year by my watchmaker. The movement is running strong and everything functions as it should. *Picture of the movement is from last year as I do not have the proper tools at the moment.

    - end of condition report -
