No real doubts about the black one btw. Trying to be polite ;-)

Compur looks legit to me but there are indeed some minor inconsistencies

This 22283 with asking price of USD 6.949 was sold rather quickly. Consensus is/was that these black dials are not legit if I recall correctly...

Well, it’s a good looker so someone got a nice watch to wear. I’m inclined to adhere to orthodoxy and say refinish dial but it’s really good.

Prototype 😁 Unmarked case. Movement may be from a early 800k 12512 or so

https://www.chrono24.nl/universalge...mpur-prototype-40-mm-oversize--id27803182.htm

' Very rare and unique Universal Geneve with rose gold case, cornes de vache lugs, oversize 40 mm, from the 1935/40s in NOS condition with a spectacular dial, a watch that cannot be found in this configuration. My consideration, we are dealing with a prototype, a unique piece.'
