The Universal Gèneve Compax was first introduced in the 1930’s, though some may even say they started producing timepieces in 1915. True or not, Universal Gèneve without a doubt excelled during the 1950’s and 1960’s. The Compax were available in various series and functions. As an attempt to join the other powerhouses for the space race, the Space-Compax was introduced as well as the Aero-Compax, which have now earned its status as collector’s item.
The present attractive example is a Compax from the 1940’s fitted with a glossy black dial and housed in a friendly 37mm stainless steel round case.
