Universal Genève SA - What's the story?

lightspire · Jan 19, 2020

I'm curious if some of the more senior members can shed light on this storied brand? Stelux currently owns Universal Genève - but do they do anything with it? Do they exhibit at Baselworld? From the site it looks like they retail it only in HK at their own City Chain stores. Their last major release was in 2008. Why isn't there more information about this brand and where it's going?

Here's all I've found:

Strange that you wouldn't post this thread in the Universal Geneve forum area. Also I'm fairly sure there is already a lot of information you are looking for in existing threads there.
My suggestion would be to read through those and then see what further questions you have.

One of the sticky threads as a starter but there are others if you search through

UG is one of the most active sub forums on OF. As said read the sticky’s and use the search. PS: Someone need to take this brand away from Stelux. Its rotting on the vine.
