Hello everyone,

I’m seeking some assistance with a unique watch in my collection. I recently came across a Universal Genève watch featuring a striking red dial, and I’ve never seen anything quite like it before.

I’m unsure if this model is authentic or if it’s a special edition or custom piece. I haven’t found any references to a red dial version in official Universal Genève catalogs or reliable online sources.

Has anyone seen a Universal Genève watch with a red dial before? Could this be a legitimate variant or possibly a custom job? Any insights or guidance on verifying its authenticity would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Aside form it being a horrible redial it's in bad condition.

I'm far from a Polerouter expert, but that "3" looks awfully small in the date window. Wrong date wheel?
And yes I agree with the others. Someone has redialled this one and it looks like they used a box of crayons!
