·Hi All,
I've got my eyes on a 1943 UG Uni-Compax Reference 22269 and am looking for some advice.
I would be interested hearing people's opinions on the condition of the watch (the significant patina and bubbling), it's general appeal (especially given its size and huge lugs – the dial is 38mm and it measures 45mm lug to lug).
Also what do you make of the curious differences it has from the image in the Sala book – noticeably the left hand side chrono markings and the marking of 'Uni-Compax' rather than the Sala 'Compur'?
I'm sort of in love with it but worry that it might be a bit big and the case a little overpolished.
What do you think guys, is this a watch worth a shot?
Regards
