Found this Universal a couple of weeks ago going through my grandfather鈥檚 things. I have looked online, but can鈥檛 seem to find the exact watch.
The two engravings on the back state that it鈥檚 18k gold, and the one below that, I assumed, was the reference number, but I can鈥檛 find any matches online.
If you guys could help me determine if the watch is original at all, if it鈥檚 a redial, a Frankenstein or what reference it is, it would be awesome!
Obs: The number engraved on the back is 18514143.
Obs2: I have had the back opened, and it is powered by a caliber 330 movement.
Thanks in advance!

The inside of the case back has nothing written on it. However, the movement on the inside looks fairly good.
What are your thoughts on it?
Thanks for the reply!

If it's not signed UG anywhere then not a UG case. I think the dial and mvmt look OK.....

Sharing my latest catch, a 1930s Berthoud Geneve compur. This watch was, at one point, owned by the late Laurent (Noodia), making it extra special!
