Universal Genève Polerouter Sub: My " candy " of the day.
In the Universe of Super Compressor cases, the Universal Genève is a strong competitor. Less famous than the Longines Diver, the Jaeger Lecoultre Polaris or the Vulcain Cricket Nautical, it is not less interesting.
The Polerouter Sub is one of the rare Super Compressor to share something with its famous competitors mentionned above: It has an in house movement.
That will be my watch of the day, today:
Not the watch I most often wear, but certainly one which gives me a lot of pleasure.
It's been 7 years, now, that I own it. And I still wonder why I don't have a few other U.G in my collection.
Best,
Nicolas

This is really really nice.
And a great choice in the event you're too busy thinking about watches and find that you accidentally walked or drove into the seine
As a Volvo driver, an unlikely scenario
If you do get invited to one of their Ocean Race events, though...
Does the casket not interfere with the jib?
Or whatever the foresail is called in English - my nautical terminology being poor in that language.
Speaking of UG
What is your take on the more modern ones with the new Microtor movement?
I must confess that I know almost nothing, which is a pity...
Because a micro rotor is always something apart in the modern production. Best, Nicolas
Funny coincidence.. As I had been wearing mine this last week..Thus kind greetings from the brother-in-arms..
Your dial & patina are awesome, indeed ! I have to say, it has a very nice, strong appeal on my wrist, also sizewise, quite timeless. - And the Compressor case.. nice ! ( Also goes nicely along with some few of my own Compressors, ie Polaris, MMC are all ...
Indeed, love them !.. Pretty strong & cool and almost contemporary appeal !.. Thx for so kind looking !.. Your patina is really WOW !
Best, my friend ! hs PS: .. One more.. Great beast ! Nice to share the joy ! ...
Great pics and a wonderful shape it is in!
Always surprised how many very old watches always have a \'twin\' here Making it such a great place!
You have two different ones or am I missing something?
If yes, then I am doubly impressed - hat off!
OK - misunderstanding
Meant if there was a third one lurking around Not that two is not plenty!
A true Candy Nicolas!! ...
... a wonderful diving watch for sure and a much rare one to boot! Nice of you sharing with us! Un abrazo, Abel.
