This is a rare, early Swiss Chronograph by Universal Geneve. Otherwise known as the Uni Compax, this watch has two registers, square buttons, straight sides and concave lugs. The hands are Blued Steel framed luminous matching the Arabic numbers. This is a handsome, reliable watch and has been serviced and is ready to go. It comes with our lifetime service commitment as well.
We have never had as exceptional a Uni Compax as this one. The dial appears to be original, unrestored.
