my first UG, a Compax

 

Wow, that is such a spectacular look! Thanks for sharing.

 

i recently bought this uni-compay retailed by Freccero on fleabay but am unsure about the chrono seconds hand. Has anyone ever seen one like this or do you think it was replaced?


Model 124103
Serial 1,600,xxx


Many Thanks,

Pacha

 

124103 should be 1952, there is a documented 1954 Freccero Compax that shows nearly the same chrono hand, not exactly but very close. It is page 280 of the Sala book. Hope that helps...

 

Calatrava? What a stunner!

 

Unless it is a Patek, it is not really a Calatrava.

 

OK Calatrava style.

 

This term essentially has no meaning. It exists as an attempt to increase the desirability (i.e. value) of lesser watches by recklessly associating them with the Patek Philippe Calatrava.

 

calatrava style.. yea it was NOS as well some watches i really regret selling but hey ho I keep the pictures and get to share them here! thanks for the appreciation

 

Finally took some photos of my time only UGs! Another Polerouter will be joining them soon!

 

What a pair! Looking forward to seeing the new Polerouter!

 

Please pardon the double posting, but I originally intended to post my new arrival in this thread instead of the other, since this one seems to be more active and more recent. Mods, feel free to delete the other posting if you wish.

Still looking to sell or trade this one.

it would look even better if all pictures were not out of focus

When the UG bug bites, it bites hard.
