    Hi OF,

    For sale is my Universal Geneve ultra-thin dress watch from the early 1960s. I love this watch and I use it myself for special occassions. But I have 2 of these watches so I've decided on selling one of them.

    Please see below for the details,

    Dial: Original silver linen dial. All original hands. Swiss signed on the bottom of the dial.
    Movement: Universal Geneve cal 1106 movement, no service history
    Case: Full stainless steel case at 34mm excluding crown, 18mm lugs width. Case is sharp and unpolished. Crown is original. Coin edged bezel.

    I completely forgotten to took a photo of the movement when my watchmaker opened it quickly, he closed it pretty tight and I don't want to damage the case back by attempting to open it again. But I can assure you that everything is original. The watch is keeping good time, winds nicely. Signed Universal Geneve on the dial, inside case back, crown, buckle, as well as the movement.

    This is just such a perfect watch for black-tie parties, wedding or any formal ocassions. Ultra-thin and slips under your cuff easily, 34mm is just the perfect size for vintage dress watch! The linen dial and the coin edged bezel definitely adds just perfect amount of characters to this simple and minimal watch!

    The watch is sold as is head only with the stainless steel UG buckle shown. No straps, box or papers. Priced at USD650 + shipping. Paypal or bank wire only.


    Thanks heaps

    Andre

    I can wrap the watch with that linen shirt after wearing it for a whole summer day if that's what it takes for you :whistling:

    A few interests but nothing solid yet, and no I will not sell the buckle separately.

    Hi.
    Would you ship to the UK and mark as "old used watch" on package?

    Thanks
    Mark

    Bonjour André,
    To be frank, your listing is confusing as you are showing three watches in this FS thread, two of them almost identical. A potential purchaser may misunderstand which watch you are actually selling.

    Is that the saltwater pool at Bodi Beach? Looks familiar. Very nice watch. Love that dial.
