DESCRIPTION

The Universal Genève Polerouter 20368-10 is a celebrated timepiece that reflects the golden era of Swiss watchmaking. Introduced in the 1950s, the Polerouter line was created to commemorate the pioneering polar flights of Scandinavian Airlines and quickly became one of the most iconic designs from Universal Genève. The reference 20368-10 stands out for its refined proportions and elegant details, making it a sought-after model among collectors and enthusiasts alike. The watch features a stainless steel case measuring 35 mm, a size that strikes a perfect balance between vintage charm and everyday wearability. Its clean silver dial is complemented by applied hour markers and dauphine hands, which provide excellent legibility while maintaining a sense of sophistication. The subtle crosshair design often found on Polerouter dials adds visual interest and depth, while the domed acrylic crystal enhances its vintage aesthetic. At the heart of the Polerouter 20368-10 is the innovative Universal Genève caliber 215, one of the first micro-rotor automatic movements. This groundbreaking mechanism allowed for a slimmer case design while delivering reliable performance and precision. It remains a testament to the technical ingenuity that helped establish Universal Genève as a respected name in the world of horology. More than just a watch, the Polerouter 20368-10 is a symbol of mid-century design and innovation. Its history, tied to aviation and exploration, gives it a unique character that goes beyond its technical merits. For those who appreciate understated elegance combined with horological significance, this Universal Genève Polerouter offers a perfect blend of style, heritage, and reliability.
