Universal Genève Compax Tri-Compax Waterproof
Descombes and Perret founded their brand in 1894 in the Jura town of Le Locle.
They call themselves "Manufacture", making their own movements, cases and watchmaking supplies.
Universal Genève was particularly interested in the construction of chronographs as early as the 1930s, with timepieces such as the Compur and the Aéro-Compax. The Tri-Compax will arrive at the end of World War II
it is a sports watch with a classic and complicated connotation. it is a Triple Calendar with days, months, dates and moon phase associated with a 3-counter chronograph.
it's a complication that requires a certain maturity in manufacturing.
Universal Genève brings us a timepiece that gives us immense pleasure, like the singer Eric Clapton, who wears it on stage and in the city.
The proposed model is from 1955, a round steel case with a diameter of 35mm.
A superb cream dial with day/month by aperture and date with moon phase in a counter at noon.
Applied spike indexes and lancet needles.
This model is said to be "Waterproof" thanks to its screwed bottom and its rare small pump pushers.
The movement is mechanical with manual winding and column-wheel chronograph distribution.
Here is the perfect synthesis of the chronograph with complications, very well balanced, the information is readable and useful.
Universal Genève masters the art of watchmaking with panache and offers us here the quintessence of a successful and unique timepiece.Descombes and Perret founded their brand in 1894 in the Jura town of Le Locle.
