The Universal Genève Polerouter Sub MK 1 is one of the most iconic dive watch references ever made, produced only between 1961 and 1963. This first generation, highly sought after by collectors, combines robust design, unique aesthetic details, and very limited production, making it a highly desirable piece.
Its 42 mm stainless steel case offers strong wrist presence, while the internal bidirectional rotating bezel, operated via a secondary crown, showcases Universal Genève’s innovative approach to diving safety and functionality. The matte black dial with luminous indexes ensures excellent legibility in any condition.
Inside beats the prestigious Universal Genève Caliber 215-2 with microrotor, prized for its accuracy and slim profile for the era. The watch is fitted with a black leather strap and pin buckle, balancing sportiness and elegance.
