Description
This exceptional and ultra-rare Universal Genève Compax dates from the 1940s. Fewer than 5 examples of reference 12324 are known to exist worldwide.

The exotic, artistic pink gold case with its faceted lugs houses a rose-gold-colored two-tone dial. Depending on the viewing angle, the sub-dials take on a lighter or darker hue. The applied pink gold hour markers in the form of small spheres show great attention to detail. The design of this watch underlines the exclusivity of the Universal Genève brand.

What makes this watch even more special and rare is its condition. Deep engravings of the reference and serial number on the back, deep gold hallmarks on the case, an outstanding dial and only a few signs of wear indicate that this watch was very rarely worn and lovingly cared for.
