Designed by Gérald Genta in the mid-1950s, the Polerouter became one of Universal Genève’s most iconic watches, thanks to both its modern design and its innovative micro-rotor movement. This rare ladies’ version retains the elegance and technical sophistication of the original model in a compact format.

When the description of a watch states “it works,” it means the watch is functioning. Since collector’s watches typically have delicate and complex mechanisms, the buyer is responsible for any general servicing, inspection, battery replacement, adjustment, or repair that may be necessary. We do not guarantee the perfect functioning of any watch. All photographs of our watches are original and were taken by our photographers; in other words, we do not use stock photography, which is why the photographs are considered part of the listing.
