The general requirements from the Italian State Railway were to produce a wristwatch measuring 34-36mm in diameter with a white dial, sub-seconds at 6 o’clock and Arabic numerals. Further, all three series feature a manual wind Universal Geneve caliber 64, a non-hacking, non-chronometer movement, which also makes for a thin case profile. The most noticeable difference between the First Series and Second Series is the case size and shape; meanwhile, the Third Series does away with the beautiful white enamel dial of the first two series. All examples are also engraved with an “FS” and a unique serial number on the case back. The numbers engraved on the case back are sequential serial numbers; with that, it can be estimated that approximately 82,000 Universal Geneve wristwatches were made for the Ferrovie dello Stato between the years of 1964 and 1975. Of these, 56,500 (or nearly 70 percent) would have been from the Second Series. Collectors have also discovered a few examples of a separate “prototype”, with a seven-digit serial number engraving. I’ll largely leave this model out of this discussion, except to call your attention to its existence. Because of its accessibility and affordability, the Universal Geneve FS is a watch best discovered through other collectors; with that, you’ll see wrist shots of collector friends below. -Marca: UNIVERSAL GENEVE -Cassa: ACCIAIO INOX DA 36MM , FONDELLO A VITE LOGATO CON MATRICOLA ESTERNA -Movimento :ORIGINALE UNIVERSAL CALIBRO 64 -Vetro:PLEXY -Corona:ORIGINALE -Ghiera:NO -Tasti: NO -Quadrante: BIANCO NUMERI ARABI -Lancette: ORIGINALI -Cinturino/Bracciale: PELLE NERO DA 20MM (PARI AL NUOVO, FIBBIA 16MM ACCIAIO) -Scatola e documenti: NOSTRA POCHETTE IN VELLUTO COMPRESA -Condizioni : OTTIME -Revisionato:SI NEL 2023 -Uomo/donna/unisex: UOMO PER QUALSIASI DUBBIO CONTATTATEMI ,RISPONDEREMO IL PRIMA POSSIBILE !
