·Freakin' Huge Universal Chronograph. Must be quite rare.
Yup. You could pick up a few decent Tri-Compaxes for that hammer price.
Strong finish.

Oh, it was another 'grandfather's watch' was it? Ebay should have a category specifically for those.

Indeed. My Centenary is one of those. The seller was going to send me the original box as a bonus as soon as he had the chance to go through Grandma's attic. Why am I not holding my breath?

If you were a typical eBay buyer you'd have believed the seller and died by now. 😜
You should send the seller a message asking where the box is - and send subsequent messages every few months. Don't let them off the hook!

·A) I don't like overexposed photos. It hides too many faults.
B) That's the "helpful measurement" watch! 😜

yes it is!
I believe it is also a redial. Not recommended, esp at the price.

·Just came back here to post my own conclusions I thought it was a redial and you all beat me to it! Thanks everyone for confirming suspicions and stopping me from wasting my money... sometimes the long search for a nice Universal Geneve makes you desperate!
Give away for me (aside from how clean the dial is) was that I couldn't find any other examples that had the 6 at the bottom unchopped and the seconds style looked a bit off. Shame.

Can you elaborate a little on what you're seeing with the "6 at the bottom unchopped"? Agree this is a redial. Always like improving my eye if I'm missing something else.

Not conclusive proof but I've never seen another Tri-Compax that actually has the numeral 6 at the bottom. Normally it's entirely covered by the dial.

·Also, if you'll notice, the black minute markers do not center on the hour markers - especially at 5,7, and 11 o'clock.
