1940s Universal Genève Uni-Compax In Yellow Gold
Why This Watch Matters The Universal Genève Uni-Compax is one of the most elegant vintage chronographs, and this yellow-gold stunner with two-tone yellow-gold dial is no different. It’s well-balanced, understated, and functional. The Full Story This Universal Genève Uni-Compax is a fantastic example of what the manufacture did so well in the 1940s. The compact yellow-gold case with square pushers houses the desirable caliber 285 movement. The two-tone yellow-gold dial is well-balanced and has polished Arabic numerals, which is an unusual configuration for this watch. The two registers fit nicely in the layout and track constant seconds and a 45-minute register. This is a beautiful example of a classic watch.
