According to the seller, the watch is intact and everything is original.

According to some articles I have read, the TriCompax of the 40s had the moon with the face and from the 50s they started using the plain moon, right?

https://lorologiese.com/product/uni...79-moon-phase-1943-steel-chronograph-cal-481/

that’s a service dial and the moonphase disc replaced with later version. The exact switch over date from face to faceless is not known, but this serial is too early for faceless. Pretty expensive as well.

Interesting one (in general, dial is ugly of course) https://www.chrono24.nl/universalge...34140853.htm?searchHash=72bd11d2_hf90CC&pos=3

Wonderful Zenith Compur with never seen before - but legit - case: https://www.kronos360.com/en/zenith-compur-390000-57617-pf390000.html
Too bad about the hands

Very nice Jaeger https://curious-curio.jp/watch/55661 Asking about EUR 10k (and already on hold). Pulsations dial is extremely rare

very cool case. I wonder if the lume is factory or later

Mark020 · Apr 28, 2024

The print is a bit funny as well.

Nice one. Funny to see that even watchmakers can be decades off when dating a watch https://uhrmachermeister.koeln/uhren-und-co/armbanduhren/universal-geneve/

I once made a nice comparison of similar dials to this one (but can't find it anymore). This 21281 may be correct: https://www.ebay.com/itm/235541162568

Another 8 mio Zenith x UG's emerges. This time with a 285x156 movement. 2nd time I've seen one I think. https://drouot.com/en/l/25117071-zenithzenith-round-wristwatch

Some kind of Colonial? (I agree about the dial).

Mark020 · Apr 29, 2024

It shares some features indeed. And case number between lugs is rare

Only UG in my collection that is similar but mine is only 33.5 mm and has Arabic numerals instead of Roman numerals.

Hey guys, I was wondering if ya'll would offer some advice on this watch I found. The dial looks impeccable and is claimed to be untouched, what do you guys think? Crown is unsigned and is a reference 22283

martinc
This is a “service dial”. Made by UG but not original to the watch. Can be easily recognized by “Tri Compax” instead of “Tri-Compax” (no dash) and by the specific layout. It seems that only one graphic design of these service dials existed.
The original dial would have been something with an early 50s vibe. 😀

Dial and hands are wrong for this reference?

@Timetosell I meant the squarish font of the outer ring

Some traders are really funny: https://www.chrono24.nl/universalge...34187650.htm?searchHash=230953fd_k3Vx3K&pos=3

Mine kind of does have squared numerals in the outer ring ?
