Universal Genève Small Seconds – Gold-Plated Case – Swiss Quartz Movement – Champagne Dial – Roman Numerals - 1980-1989 An elegant vintage Universal Genève wristwatch combining the refined proportions of a traditional Swiss timepiece with the precision and practicality of a quartz movement.

A recessed small-seconds subdial at 6 o’clock adds visual balance and gives the watch the appearance of a classic mechanical dress watch, while its quartz movement provides convenient and reliable timekeeping.

Story & Heritage Universal Genève occupies an important place in the history of Swiss watchmaking. Founded in 1894, the manufacture became particularly respected for its sophisticated movements, chronographs and refined wristwatches, producing several designs that are today highly appreciated by vintage collectors. Although the maison is especially famous for mechanical icons such as the Compax family and Polerouter, Universal Genève also embraced quartz technology as the Swiss watch industry evolved. Watches from this later period retained the elegant proportions and restrained design language associated with the brand while incorporating the accuracy and convenience of electronic movements. This example is particularly charming for the way it combines two worlds: a Swiss quartz movement inside a watch designed with unmistakably traditional details — Roman numerals, a champagne dial, small seconds and graceful curved lugs. A refined vintage Universal Genève with understated elegance and the distinctive character of one of Switzerland’s historic watchmaking names. Internal Reference Number - FLO-170
