Universal Genève 'Fancy Lug' Calibre 215 Dress Watch

While Universal Genève may be most famed for its Compax chronographs and the Polerouter, its svelte dress watches 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 timepiece, for example: modest in proportions at 34mm, this watch packs a substantial presence and personality into its unassuming package. With unique lugs, and numerals, this piece captures its 1960s history perfectly, providing something that simply isn't offered on modern pieces. This piece is fashioned from 14K rose gold and features a compact case powered by a slim microrotor UG Calibre 215 movement. Adorned with a very clean silver dial, this piece features applied indices, matching dauphine handset and a pair of very fancy lugs! This is the perfect entryway into Universal Genève for the budding collector, or an excellent addition to an established collection for the person who appreciates superb quality and that very quintessential 1960s-1970s dress watch style meets exuberance. 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.
