Other: This rare Universal Genève Polerouter Jet from the late 1950s is absolutely incredible. We love the glossy black "gilt" dial with "mirror" finish. The lume has aged to an attractive yellow hue. This gorgeous example is nearly new old stock and came from the daughter of the original owner. She mentioned that she never saw her father wear the watch, which would explain the overall mint condition. It also came on this cool Kreisler expansion bracelet, which was likely installed by the jeweler when the watch was originally purchased. It comes with its original box and guarantee papers (blank). If you collect only the best of the best condition, this watch fits within that description. This watch is like something you'd see on the set of Mad Men.
