Get your hands on this serviced vintage Universal Genève dress watch with cal. 42 manual movement, Roman numeral dial, and stainless steel case - elegant, guaranteed, and ready to wear classic.

Model History:
Universal Genève has long been regarded as one of Switzerland’s most refined watchmakers, known for elegant designs and high-quality in-house movements. While the brand is often associated with complicated chronographs, their minimalist dress watches from the mid-20th century showcase a different side of their expertise - clean aesthetics, slim profiles, and excellent finishing. Models powered by the cal. 42 manual-wind movement were designed as reliable, understated everyday pieces, often in smaller, versatile sizes that today fit perfectly into the unisex category. The combination of a restrained dial layout and classic Roman numerals gives this piece a timeless, dress-oriented character.

Condition:
The watch is in very good vintage condition with a refined overall appearance. The stainless steel case shows visible signs of wear, including scratches and small marks, particularly along the lugs and case sides, consistent with age and use. The dial is well preserved with Roman numerals that remain crisp and legible. Only minimal patina/discolouration is visible near the rim of the dial. The hands are in good condition and match the overall aesthetic nicely. The crystal has been replaced and is in scratch-free condition. The movement has been fully serviced and runs reliably.

I aim to capture the condition of the watch accurately. Please make sure to review the pictures closely before bidding.

The watch has been completely serviced by a professional watchmaker and tested for full functionality. The water resistance of the watch cannot be guaranteed.
