    Wrong in what way? Esthetically, cosmetically, or mechanically?

    Wrong if this is trolling through the pond with too few posts to actually sell on the forum. How many PMs have you got at this point? Personally I'm a 30's 40's early 50's UG fan so this has no appeal for me. Sorry but I had to add some Snark here. ::popcorn::

    The bridge is unsigned, is the movement original to the watch?
    something doesn't look right with the crown either.

    Agree. That may not be an original UG caliber 85 movement and there are some differences ...

    caliber 85

    Apart from that important point and the fact that the crown (looks like) does not screw in and the case looks like it has been polished, it is nice. I see you have the original crystal which is a big bonus. Pity about the movement ! What is the serial and reference numbers on the case back ?

    Yeah, lack of a signed bridge jumped out to me right away. I haven't ever seen a UG Valjoux 72 that wasn't signed with the internal caliber at the base (85, in this case) and "Universal Geneve" across the top of the bridge.
