UG 84.2 calibre

Launched in 1936, the Compax chronograph displayed a revolutionary third chronometer counter for totalizing the hours and minutes timed. Seventy-three years – and a full history – later, Universal Genève is bringing out a version that is both luxurious and simple, contemporary and respectful of tradition, with Côtes de Genève bridges, rhodium-plated and finely sand-blasted plates, hand chamfering, and a dial featuring the star of Copernicus, in a composition with two alternating tones of anthracite creating a subtle play of light.
