Hello UG experts. Does anybody know about this limited anniversary golden Janus. This one does not have the cabriolet mechanism that turns the watch face. Everything else except the strap looks identical. Any information and comments is appreciated. Thanks J.B
I have checked out this watch because I have the box only which comes with certificate of Guarantee, Manual and UG Lupe. They fetch a good price at auction although I have read that their were only 10 Unique watches made for Universals 100 year anniversary but the dilemma is that I have also read that there were 150 unique watches made. I have not been able to find out which is the correct amount.
Found this: Universal Geneve “Golden Janus” watch, reference 042.400. Limited edition from UG's 100th anniversary in 1994. The outer case is platinum and the inner case is rose gold. Two-faced watch, one side with jumping hour, running blued steel minute hand, day/night indicator, and blued steel pointer date; one side with RG hour and minute hands and four applied RG roman markers. The two sides can keep two different times. UG stainless steel folding buckle with RG clasp. UG caliber 42. Model 120 from a limited production of 150.
