About this watch

Universal Genève Polerouter 825603/05 26MM 1960s This Universal Genève Polerouter ref. 825603/05 presents in great vintage condition. The case shows light hairlines consistent with careful wear over time, with no distracting dents or gouges under normal viewing; overall geometry reads crisp on the wrist. A brand-new Hirsch calf leather strap has been fitted and is unworn, offering a comfortable, secure fit that suits the watch’s understated proportions. The dial and hands are in very good condition, with clear, even printing and a gentle, uniform patina beginning to form that adds warmth without obscuring detail. Lume tones appear harmonious between hands and hour markers, and the minute track remains tidy and legible. Overall, it wears cleanly and presents as a well-kept example of the reference, ready for everyday desk-diving rather than hard use. As this is a vintage timepiece from the 1960s, it should be treated accordingly: avoid water exposure and do not wear whilst swimming.
