Story & Heritage
Universal Genève holds a legendary place in Swiss watchmaking history — admired for its elegant design language and precision engineering. During the 1960s, the brand produced some of its most iconic dress watches, and this Small Seconds model is a perfect reflection of that heritage.
The jumbo 37 mm stainless-steel case offers a rare and desirable presence on the wrist, noticeably larger than most dress watches of its time. The champagne dial has aged beautifully, displaying a soft vintage tone with subtle patina that enhances its character rather than diminishing it. Applied hour markers and Arabic numerals at the quarter positions add sophistication, while the finely detailed small-seconds sub-dial at 6 o’clock completes the balanced, classic design.
The caseback is engraved with the reference number, confirming its originality. Honest signs of age and wear are present, giving the watch authentic vintage charm while maintaining a dignified appearance. Inside, the Swiss-made Universal Genève mechanical movement reflects the brand’s commitment to precision craftsmanship.
Combining rarity, elegance, and true collector appeal, this Universal Genève Small Seconds is ideally suited for enthusiasts who appreciate refined vintage design and the quiet prestige of one of Switzerland’s most respected historic watchmakers.
