    First and foremost, thanks to the mods for a dispensation regarding the 200 post rule so I can offer this watch, and thanks to OF for the space.

    Up for sale is a very nice Polerouter, which I purchased from fellow OF member @Dre a few months ago. As usual, a combination of 1) consolidating, 2) buying too many pieces in a short span and 3) the perpetual grail chase, means I have to let this one go. My loss is your gain - Polerouters have noticeably heated up recently.

    Down to the details...

    Dial: Original silver applied shield logo dial with even golden patina, double signed by retailer Hamiltons. Radium lume plots are full and puffy, with the exception of the 10 and 11 o'clock markers which show some degradation and shrinkage.
    Hands: Original radium hands, no lume loss.
    Case: Super sharp 35mm stainless steel case with strong facets and chamfers, some grime between the 19mm lugs which suggests the watch may very well be unpolished. Crown is UG branded (shield matching dial logo) and appears original. Caseback printing is razor sharp and fully legible.
    Movement: Cal. 138SS, recently serviced by previous owner and keeping good time.

    Pricing: For this watch I am asking $2,000 shipped within CONUS (strongly preferred). Local pick-up also welcome in the NYC area. I may ship internationally on a case by case basis, fully insured only and at the buyer's cost. Accepted payment methods are wire transfer and PayPal (buyer covers fees if friends and family is not used). I can provide references relating to purchases from and sales to fellow OF members on request.

    Included below are photos from the original listing (with permission), because they far surpass what I could hope to achieve. I have supplemented with a photo I took this morning at the window.

    Thanks for looking!
