THIS WATCH
WAS FLIGHT TESTED
FOR YOU!
The Universal POLAROUTER,、 worn by all SAS flight captains.
Flight-tested accuracy is yours, with the Universal POLAROUTER, the selfwinding watch that keeps the flight captains of S.A.S. (Scandinavian Airlines System) on time in all parts of the world.
The success story of the POLAROUTER began on November 15, 1954. On that day, S.A.S. opened the top of the world to commercial aviation. Flying the direct transpolar route from Europe to the U.S. West Coast, S.A.S. flight chiefs needed a watch they could crust.
Universal, whose factory is the most modern in Switzerland, designed the watch and fittingly named it the POLAROUTER.
Today, some 10,000 flying hours and over 50 million passenger miles later, flight captains on the entire, worldwide S.A.S. network keep on time with Universal POLAROUTER watches. So can you,
And you will be wearing a watch that's as handsome and up-to-date as the sleek silver birds on which the POLAROUTER was flight- tested for you.
