Universal Genève
For sale is a Swiss Made Universal Genève men's dress watch with reference number 142100/11, dating back to the 1960's. The 33mm case is made of solid 18k yellow gold, and measures only 7.3mm thick. Behind the crystal sits a gold tone dial with a lovely linen texture finish. It has developed some light discolouration over the years, adding to the charisma of this vintage piece. Gold tone indices with black details can be found around the outer rim, with blued steel baton style hands fitting perfectly into the elegant and minimalist watch face.
The watch is powered by a high quality Universal Calibre 42, a manually wound movement with 17 jewels. It is only 2.45mm thick, allowing the watch to have such a sleek and slender case design. The timepiece has been fully serviced and is keeping time perfectly. It comes fitted to a brand new dark brown leather strap with glossy lizard look, ready to wear.
The example sold here has been worn throughout its life, but is still in good condition considering its age. You will definitely find marks and scratches on the case, most notably on the back. Said case is unpolished and therefore in original shape, with sharp edges and curves. The crystal is brand new. Underneath said crystal, the dial has developed some stains as mentioned before. Please study the pictures in this listing well: they show the watch in the condition that it is in, with no digital enhancements to make it look better than it is. We are sure that you like honesty, and so do we. Functionally, the watch has been serviced prior to sale and is working perfectly.
The watch comes without any paperwork or original box, but evidently we will provide a generic box to ship it to the buyer safe and sound. Your purchase will be packaged with great care, and will be shipped out as fast as possible using international priority service. We usually ship the same day your payment comes in, and provide full insurance as well as a tracking code for all of our packages. If you have any questions regarding the item or our services, please do not hesitate to reach out. We'll gladly assist as soon as we get the chance.
