Universal Genève, established in 1894 in Le Locle, Switzerland, has a storied history marked by innovation and elegance. Initially known as "Universal Watch," the company quickly gained a reputation for precision timepieces. In the 1920s and 1930s, Universal Genève introduced some of the first chronographs designed for both men and women, setting new standards in watchmaking.
    
Despite facing challenges during the quartz crisis of the 1970s, Universal Genève managed to retain its reputation for quality craftsmanship. Today, vintage Universal Genève watches are highly sought after by collectors worldwide, symbolizing a legacy of timeless elegance and technical mastery.

What's on Offer

This 1950s Universal Geneve vintage dress watching 18k gold is in super condition. The dial is a simple time-only design and is very chic with a stunning silver sunburst and applied gilt furniture. There are some signs of wear as we would expect but nothing of any concern and it wears beautifully on the wrist. A beautiful dress watch that is perfectly appropriate for any occasion and a very worthy addition to any collection.
