    Hello guys,
    What do you think about this Polerouter Sub. Reference 204615-1 (not sure...)
    Anything odd with it? Seems to be polished. Also the bezel looks somehow off. Is this the genuine bezel for the reference?

    Thank you - I appreciate your knowledge about this matter. Mine is very limited.

    Bezel is correct. It could have been polished, but I think it's acceptable. Pity about the crystal, as it has to have a trapezoid date window. Other than that, I think it looks good. What's the asking price, if I may ask?

    And oh, here's mine :)

    Thank you very much. Asking price is around 2600 $. I have seen much higher listings. But the hunt for the genuine crystal might be hard... still struggling with other projects.
    Regarding the bezel: are there different versions ? Those starting with the 10- minute marker and those starting with the 50- minute marker clockwise?
    Kind regards

    Price is good; but sourcing that correct crystal might be difficult. Both bezel configurations (50 down, 10 down) are seen in these references. Not sure about the logic behind the difference though.

    Thanks :) I am still unsure about the correct reference number. Could anybody help me to figure it out? The owner has no clue and it is polished out on the caseback. The serial no. may give some hint, that it is the 204615 reference. If so, there are also versions without the date window on the crystal. I have seen a pic of such an example on the polerouter reference site... this is getting confusing :D

    Cool watch! I think it looks great on that orange-aqua-black Nato.

    Thank you all for your helpful responses. I finally have an agreement with the seller and the beauty will hopefully arrive in the next days :) I also found a good source for aftermarket crystals with the trapezoid date window. The watch may need a service, because the owner rarely wore it. So there might be some additional expenses from my side. Still a very reasonable buy...I cannot complain.
