    Hi guys!
    Up for grabs this basically perfect example of one of the latest - if not the last - affordable Italian issued watches. This specific watch is a Universal Geneve "FS" (standing for "Ferrovie dello Stato", Italian railway company) second execution.
    These are watches that nowadays are more difficult to find in good conditions. Enamel dials are quite fragile and it's hard to find them with no marks or big signs of use.
    This example has one of the most appealing dials I see so far. It's basically perfect, in - I'd say - superb condition. It is basically unworn! Dial is perfectly white and flawless. Plexyglass is the original one (it's almost impossible to find one with the original plexy!)
    Stainless steel case manteins its original shape, caseback is clean and its engraving is perfect. Crown is original.

    Movement is running well but not freshly serviced.
    Attatched with it I'll add a brand new italian leather strap from the brand "SMU", a small brand of straps that I'm building with a friend of mine (you can see more here).

    Overall a watch in great shape, a must have item, considering price and history.

    For this watch price is 900€ plus shipment. I have dozens of worldwide feedbacks, you can buy with 100% trust.

    Thank you all
