    I've decided to part ways with my beloved UG. I have just received her back from a full service and clean at a cost of £696 so it's all ready to go. I will include the service receipt you can see in the pictures. Cal 287 runs strong and has been totally overhauled and ultrasonically cleaned.

    All functions are correct and work as they should. Dial is original and has unique deco numbers that is seldom seen. Original hands including red date hand. Original moonphase disc which is as rare as hens teeth. Date and month discs are in Portuguese. The watch dates to around 1945.

    Case and lugs look like they've never been cleaned up and show years of use. Overall it's a nice clean example of a TriCompax. Really hard to find these days. I've loved owning this for the past few years. Though i have found another I'm about to purchase.


    Asking £5350 net to me. Tracked worldwide shipping from London. Insurance can also be arranged at cost.

    Payment by Bank Transfer or Paypal for established forum members.

    I've sold a few watches on here and have various reviews on here and on the Rolex forums. I'm also active on the UG section of this forum.


    I've tried to include as many pics as I can. I think that's everything but please reach out for more info/pics :)

    Nice pick up. If I didn’t just get one I would have jumped on it.

    If I hadn't just bought two Gallet I'd also have gone for it.
