Good afternoon Bezelnut....i love the two tone colour plus its bumper movement...This is my first watch that i like at the very beginning but unable to afford...finally, i got lucky...as you can see my previous post, waltham and tissot both got similar dial, only different is the name and mechanism.
Ahh, I see, the aesthetics.
Design wise, This is the watch Gerald Genta design when he is just a young man, starting his epic journey becoming the legend in horology. Technology wise, it is the watch that got a micro rotor for automatic winding, a break-though in it's time. It utilise an innovative protective bumper to protect the balance wheel, another break-through in it's time. History speaking, it is the watch officially made for Scandinavian airline's pilot for their harsh flight at the Arctic circle, so the watch is made to withstand extreme temperature and magnetic field. Furthermore, it is also the first watch to the north pole.
This is a very respectable watch, just under the radar. A good Polerouter sub (inner bezel version) still fetch many thousands in auction.
