What We Fancy

This rare 18k solid gold Polerouter De Luxe dates to 1957 & brings something a little different to the table from the normal Polerouters you see oftentimes. The case is totally different with shorter curved lugs but a thicker profile. Traces of the original 1954 Gerald Genta design is still very much present like the radially fluted indices. A true stunner.
