Ostensibly the rarest of the all the twisted lug Polerouters, the Reference 20217-9 is instantly recognisable by the use of gold dauphine hands, with gold markers on the steel chapter ring

This particular example displays a rich matte chocolate dial, with all gold printing intact

The Genta designed case retains the all the right curves and lines as they should, and the caseback shows reference and serial number with deep and crisp engraving

The watch comes fitted on a bespoke Mann About Time x Molequin Whiskey tan calf leather strap, has been cleaned and regulated by my trusted watchmaker, and is ready to be enjoyed

These are a rare watch, and don't come up often - if you know you know, so why wait!
