Description

This Universal Genève Polerouter from 1967 features a stunning black dial and embodies the unique design language of Gerald Genta. Created in 1954, the Polerouter was originally designed to commemorate SAS (Scandinavian Airlines Systems) polar flights from New York and Los Angeles to Europe. This model is one of Genta’s iconic contributions to watch design, predating his work with brands like Audemars Piguet and Patek Philippe.

With a micro-rotor movement, this timepiece is not only visually striking but also historically significant, representing a milestone in Swiss watchmaking. The black dial contrasts beautifully with the stainless steel case, giving it a timeless, elegant appeal.
