Universal Genève Polerouter "No Date" - Ref. 20360-1 (1957).
This Universal Genève Polerouter (Ref. 20360-1), produced precisely in 1957, embodies the quintessence of the mid-century "Dress Watch". Designed by the legendary Gérald Genta at the age of 23, it is presented here in its purest and most sought-after configuration by collectors: the "No Date" version.
The absence of a date window offers the black satin dial perfect symmetry. The eye is immediately drawn to the silver guilloché inner ring (the famous "Chapter Ring") which creates a unique architectural depth. This Black & Silver contrast is the visual signature of this reference 20360-1.
Under its 35mm stainless steel case with straight lugs, beats the famous caliber 215 "Microtor". This micro-rotor movement, patented by the manufacture, is a technical feat that allows this automatic watch to maintain a remarkable thinness of 9.2mm on the wrist.
A historic piece, witness to the golden age of watch design, ideal for the enthusiast seeking elegance without compromise.
Why did we select this piece?
- For its Ref. 20360-1 "No Date": The absolute symmetry of the black dial is a grail for purists.
- For the "Genta Touch": Owning a Polerouter is to own one of the first masterpieces by the designer of the Patek Nautilus and the AP Royal Oak.
- For its year 1957: A pivotal year anchoring this piece in the model's history.
