Really steep price and a bit more polished than I'd like, but beautiful dial and nice overall package.

Very nice dial. However, the watch is from the early 1950s, the box and buckle are from 1957-60, and the crown is from 1965+...

Introducing the 'One-of-a-Kind' UG… with the world's worst reprint!
This dial is so off, it might just convince you it’s abstract art...

Another interesting Jaeger in France today: https://drouot.com/en/l/26636184-jaeger-steel-chronometer-watch-circa-1950-round-case-black
Sold for EUR 1.200 excl fee which is about market I think. Sandwich dial but not in the best condition, 35mm and in need of a service.

The seller with the endless supply of Jaeger dials now has a UG for sale. https://www.chrono24.nl/universalge...36802287.htm?searchHash=72bd11d2_IHmTia&pos=1 & https://goldammer.me/products/universal-geneve-uni-compax-18k-1950s
Complete sh.tshow. Besides this is a 1930's watch (and not 1950's) and selling a watch with the lume almost dropping out they carefully talk around the fact that the dial is replaced. I now have 3 dials recorded for this case. 5166 is a Compur reference btw

Very rare execution: https://www.lot-art.com/auction-lots/Universal-Geneve-Compur/215-universal_geneve-31.10.24-fellow One of these case types which is simply not documented

Correct 'Universal Compur Geneve' dial. Too bad it is only 30,5mm

Not really. I have a database with numbers and pics of earlier chronos so basically serial <1 mio. Basically a 10 second job.

I don’t know the model but it looks like a second only stopwatch , similar to the chronostop but it seems that it has a clutch wheel so you can probably stop the chrono without resetting the hand , and the pusher is at the crown , either it had a different crown with a built in pusher or this is the correct crown and it have a cleaver way to operate .

Pulling out the crown resets second hand to zero and it stays there until crown is pushed back in.
