Universal Geneve Polerouter "Bruce Lee" | Be water

The Polerouter remains an underrated option on the vintage market. This reference 20363-3 has the special provenance of having been the model worn by the late great martial arts legend Bruce Lee. ESPN's 30 for 30 on Bruce Lee just released and this is an opportune time to discuss race and prejudice.
The Polerouter has the prestige of being a Gerald Genta design and the claim as the first micro-rotor movement and a great story associated with the first SAS flights over the north pole, all in a wonderfully executed package.
We take a look at this great alternative to the datejust or seamasters of yore.

    That watch still looks totally modern somehow. Truly timeless (and the Bruce Lee connection is really cool too.)
