Monodatic mania, in 18k rose gold from 1956/57! See my post a few minutes ago in the “Monodatic Appreciation” thread for a bit more detail and pics.

Recent acquisition of Polerouter Sub. Love to find a correct bracelet for it.

Got this polerouter I had been after for a while. I really wanted the black tuxedo one but this is the best I could get. Glass is a little bit cracked (bottom left corner) but is the original signed glass. Crown is not signed, but caseback is. Seems to be running strong and micro rotor has no bearing issues (I have a UG with cal 69 that unfortunately has some). I currently changed the strap to a brown one I had lying around, but will get it a new one- perhaps black lizard? If you have any thoughts or concerns they’d be much appreciated!

Hi all.
I just got this 18k UG Compur from 1939/1940 (according to the serial number). Sadly the gold crown was replaced by a U branded one. Any idea where I can get an original crown? Thanks

Here is my only Universal Geneve chronograph, a Uni-compax ref 224 108 with cal 285 from the early 1940’s. One of my favorites.

And my other vintage UG. Early (?) Monodatic with a slight (but to my mind agreeable) patina.

Space-Compax Gen I, also likely from 1967. Interestingly, the serial # of these two are only 244 apart. Is my Gen 1 one of the last and my Gen 2 one of the first?

My "new" Universal White Shadow with calibre 2-66. Freshly serviced and repaired (the decentralized cannon pinion was slipping, resulting in the hands not moving).

Don't want to p.ss on your parade but that dial is far from mint (as in: a (bad) redial)...

It’s been a minute since I was last on OF glad to see everyone still here posting. Thought I’d share the scale my UG addiction.

And I thought my six-watch UG collection with a seventh possible incoming is out of control. Guess not!

What a complete collection, I would love it if you could upload close-ups of the watches afterwards!

Thanks for sharing
