While Universal Genève may be most famed for its Compax chronographs and the Polerouter, its svelte dress watches and more casual wearers are equally compelling.
Throughout the latter half of the 20th century, UG designed simple, time-only watches alongside its more complicated brethren that played with shape, color, and design in interesting and novel ways.
Take this charming timepiece, for example: A time-only steel watch, double-signed by J.E. Caldwell & Co - a storied Jeweler in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, who originally retailed the timepiece. This signature, as obscure as it might be for those outside the Keystone State, is a window into how the industry used to be run. Today, finding a retailer signature on a contemporary piece is incredibly rare and usually only found on ultra-luxury brands. But in the 1950s the world of mechanical timekeeping was experiencing boom times, and major houses such as Universal Genève were more than happy to produce special dials for their key accounts.
It features a 33.5mm twisted-lug case with an acrylic crystal, a satin silver dial with applied 'dart and 'Arabic' indices, a matching 'dauphine' handset, and a Universal Genève Calibre 138SS automatic winding 'bumper' movement within.
Fitted to one of our Analog:Shift straps, this fantastic piece is the perfect entryway into not just Universal Genève, but for the budding vintage collector.
Sure to garner knowing nods of approval from the inner enthusiast circle, this is a killer option from one of our absolute favorite brands - full stop.
