Without a doubt, one of Universal Genève’s most iconic models is the Tri-Compax, first introduced to the market in 1944.

The case of this lovely chronograph some could argue resembles the Rolex Daytona reference 6241, as the acrylic bezel with printed tachometer in addition to the pump pushers are similar in appearance.

The watch features indications for the chronograph function on the dial, and a complete calendar with moonphases – an astronomical complication that is sought after by collectors.

The present example is offered with its original presentation box, black perforated rubber strap, and all product literature including its original hang tag as it left the factory. Offered in exceptional overall condition, this complete watch is a rare trophy for even the most discerning collector.

Swiss | 1894
Universal Genève was founded in Le Locle, Switzerland in 1894 and was originally known as "Universal Watch." Since its inception, Universal Genève has produced watches with unusually high quality for their price point. Universal was among the first brands to introduce a chronograph wristwatch.
Today, the firm's vintage models are highly sought-after and desired for their oversized cases and interesting dial designs. Key models include a variety of "Compax" models such as the "Nina Rindt" or "Evil Nina," the Uni-Compax, the Space-Compax, the Aero-Compax and the Film-Compax.
