Ref 7270 https://www.ebay.com/itm/388748697871

I ended up with this. It's quite nice to my eyes. But small, at 19x19.... Wondering if with the right strap, I can get away with it, or whether it goes to the wife. Needs a service for sure. Seems original?

Very interesting one. Ref 7295. Assymetric case, serial inside and reference outside and double signed! https://www.chrono24.nl/universalge...45202228.htm?searchHash=230953fd_zts3Z7&pos=3

And another interesting question:

• the one above is ref 7295 and serial 702.831
• this (https://omegaforums.net/threads/universal-geneve-four-digit-references.152589/post-2385480) one is ref 7291 and serial 702.805.

I have reason to believe all references were made so within this small range (831-805=26(!)) 7292, 7293 and 7294 must fit. I did some high over calculations how this may work. Please consider this just as an exercise and not as absolute thruth.

The main point is that UG produced watches in this era in very small batches.

Is it confirmed that Altesse is a retailer that would double sign? I've read some people suggesting it, but never seenit confirmed.

I think this one wasn't on the table yet...

A 7484 with a cal 220.

Offered in Italy together with a Zenith for less than 100 (https://www.vinted.pt/items/8405411601-zenith-universal-geneve-orologi-vintage).
