·Hi folks,
I would appreciate your opinion on this Polerouter.
According to the seller it "works well and keeps time", whatever that means.
Serial no is 177xxxx, so it should be a 1955-56 bumper movement.
Catalogue no is S20214 - 4, which also seems consistent.
What keeps me off this catch is:
1: Non-original crown, as far as I can see. It is not signed and seems too thick.
2: Rather large engraving on the back, but maybe that's what you have to live with in the vintage world.
3: The crown looks to be mounted at an angle. Could the axle be bent, or is there some other damage?
Asking price is approx 500 USD.
Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
