While collectors often focus on the Polerouter or Tri-Compax, Universal Genève also produced exceptional dress watches that offer incredible value. This rare, ultra-slim model stands out with its unique beaded bezel and sunburst anthracite dial. It dates from a period when UG treated high-end quartz as a luxury innovation, fitting these timepieces with superior, in-house decorated calibres.
This specific watch is a true "time capsule" in near-New Old Stock condition, complete with its original papers and the factory protective sticker still on the caseback. A refined choice for those who appreciate understated Swiss excellence.
