A unique Polerouter with a beautiful convex curved matte black dial, large steel indexes, and trapezoid shaped date at three o’clock. A case with pretty lugs made by Huguenin Frères, characterized by its screw-down crown and caseback which, although bearing the usual scratches, still offers the beautiful logo in all its beauty, proof that the watch only received the lightest of polishings.

On November 15, 1954, the first commercial flight to pass over the North Pole took place, flying from Copenhagen to Los Angeles. Universal Genève equipped automatic watches for the pilots of the Scandinavian Airline System (SAS) who had been preparing to carry out these commercial flights. The Polarouter would therefore take the name of this experience above the Pole, becoming the service watch of the airline’s pilots, and subsequently the Polerouter we all know.
