And it does not stop. 2 other examples of overpriced lemons....

Universal Compur Geneve dial in poor condition with fake DH inscription with an asking of EUR 16.5k https://www.chrono24.de/universalge...42962892.htm?searchHash=efc02c1f_hmaPkv&pos=6 Seller knows it is from 1935 (ish). You can say a lot about the purchasing strategy of the German army but second hand watches? Really?



22409 with non correct servicedial and poor relume. Also movement replaced. Asking CHF 9.400

If they are going to charge 12k-15k for a Polerouter, it is going to make an old one at 6-8k look real attractive.

if the Polerouter is in 18k gold then 12 -15k its resonable lol.

i think Breitling will not so stupid to develop a brand in same price level. so UG should be either higher-end like chopard or lower-end like tudor. (or maybe both? cal 281 with good finishment seems like a good idea)

Silly indeed. Plenty vintage Patek, Vacheron, Breguet at that price. All of those brands have always been more exclusive, higher manufacturing standards brands than UG. And all have an uninterrupted history; no need to wait for a relaunch. I don’t get it.

BTW did Wind pay Will Smith for wearing a Polerouter on occasion of the Grammy Awards?

Hey! I have no interest in buying this (I'm actually trying to sell one that looks just like it).

Just curious what everyone thinks? To me, it looks like a dog. Is a bumper movement that much more desirable than a micro rotor?

A bumper with a repainted dial certainly not!

Hey! Curious why you think this is a repaint. Mostly because I have a polerouter that looks very similar that I'm selling. I don't want to unknowingly sell a redial.

Mine has a micro rotor.

1. "U" logo is crooked.

2. "Polerouter" font is very heavy and rough compared to other examples shown.

3. Look at where cross-hatch meets the lume pip at 6 o'clock. There is a secondary hash mark there.

Universal did not have the greatest QC on their dials, but it was much better than that.
