AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Stunning Universal Genève Polerouter. Ref. 20355/5 with caliber 218-2 is likely datable to 1962–1964. The caliber 218-2 was introduced in 1960 and equipped the majority of the Polerouter Date watches from the early 1960s. Therefore it can be placed between 1962 and 1963. A stunning sporty yet elegant true vintage dress watch with a 34mm steel case with elongated lugs, the house’s typic shape with a very slim profile thanks to the 18k gold micro-rotor; original ivory white dial with applied white gold markers and splendid concentric central finishing, and sword-shaped hands in white gold; mechanical automatic movement of manufacture 218-2 with a perfectly winding micro-rotor and serviced; original and period-correct in every component, increasingly rare, especially in these conditions (excellent 8/10).
