·Hi guys,
I have for sale a beautiful and rare Universal Geneve ref. 20005 retailed by J.W Benson in great conditions, with a strong steel case and delicious double signed two tone dial.
This elegant watch is an early automatic model by the brand and it is fitted with the UG calibre 139 bumper movement, precursor to self-winding rotor movements.
The case is in excellent conditions, unpolished in my opinion, with a great presence on the wrist, and the caseback is well preserved with the original engraving very clearly visible
The dial is an amazing work of art: not only is it two tone and double signed, but the two different finishes also gives it a "sector-dial look" with many different shades of grey depending on light.
The watch is original in every parts and runs well keeping good time.
Reference: 20005
Year: Circa 1950s
Case No: 1650873
Material: Stainless steel.
Dimensions: 36mm diameter.
Crystal: Plexiglass.
Caliber: Universal Genève bumper movement caliber 139, fully serviced.
Bracelet/Strap: Saffiano leather watch strap.
Lug Width: 18mm
Box: original box from the London shop.
Asking 1800 Euro, insured shipping included.
Payment method - I will accept Paypal gift payment and bank wire.
Plenty of international references.
Please message if interested
