Rare bird ref 12552 (which had a VERY expensive service in 2014).... https://www.bukowskis.com/fi/auctions/663/1020-universal-geneve-tri-compax-chronograph-ca-1945. 12552 was probably made in 2 batches and I think 2x100 pieces or so

Weird one: https://www.wallapop.com/item/universal-geneve-crono-1112314147

Maybe Im wrong , but I think this case is a fake with a fake Engraving. But , again, maybe Im wrong 🤔


Or , later replacement case with fake Engraving

Some ads are really funny. Literally everything in this one is wrong or not true (and the pictures made with a Nokia 6610). Of course the price is wrong as well: https://www.chrono24.nl/universalgenve/tri-compax--id39667429.htm?searchHash=72bd11d2_Qk6MuV&pos=7

A strange concoction of a watch that seems to have undergone service at UG in the mid 80's.

https://www.chrono24.com/universalgenve/-vintage-tri-compax--id39798119.htm

As per what I can tell from the repair paperwork, only the following was done, but to me it seems to have been redialed as well (perhaps earlier?).

1 - Overhauling of the movement
2 - Buffing of case
3 - Exchange of glass

Interesting one. The basic idea behind this 'weird' serial Jaegers was always that were French cased ones but this one has a 143 (= Nardin & Cie) so Swiss made case. https://www.ebay.com/itm/135688860309

What do we think about this one? Dates / moon window and sub-hands look wonky…
