1940s Universal Genève Compax In Steel

Why This Watch Matters The Compax is a quintessential chronograph from Universal Genève; with its balanced dial and well-proportioned case this watch has maintained its timelessness flawlessly. The Full Story Universal Genève has been on the up and up over the past few years and it’s easy to see why.  The Compax first hit the market in 1935 and quickly became a hit. The Swiss manufacture consistently produced beautiful tool watches such as this Compax with three subsidiary dials, applied gold indexes and gold handset. This example is one of 185 Compax references in existences but still maintains the characteristics of the Compax that we love.
