1960s Universal Gen?ve Space-Compax Reference 885104/01

A Universal Genève chronograph is always a great choice. But have you considered the boldest of all ? This Space Compax is a rare watch, with various theoris about its original purpose, some pretending it was designed with the space exploration in mind, whereas some think it was actually a diving chronograph. In both cases, the bold case and the typical rubber pushers make it a strong watch, made for extreme conditions.

Very well preserved, this model features the rare and desirable “reverse panda” dial, with a black dial and white sub-registers. It comes also with polished hands and blued register hands.
