All the design of the Polerouter from Universal Genève in very trendy color variations! The drip-feed production of TimeFactors in Sheffield delivers these little gems with serious characteristics: Miyota 9039 movement, antimagnetism of 20000A/m (or 250 Gauss, for a Polerouter you need at least that, but we are far from the 1000 Gauss of the eponymous Rolex), screw-down crown, 100m water resistance, dimensions well balanced on my 18cm wrist (38.5mm diameter, 20mm bracelet width, 46.75mm height, 12.3mm thickness). And what about the characteristic aesthetics of Gérald Genta's sublime model? This watch is superb, only the rice grain bracelet is a little too pompous for this watch, but it looks great on a good number of leather bracelets! Its major flaw comes from the somewhat poor readability of its dial: the polished hands contrast poorly with the sunburst dial (at least in its sky blue version that I have). The absence of lume also confines this watch to a dress watch role, somewhat spoiling its adventurous origins.
anonymous own this watch for 1 to 3 years
