This is a description of a rare and well-preserved Universal Unicompax chronograph wristwatch from the mid-1950s. The watch has a 37mm turned-design 18k pink gold case with a triple-colored scale dial. The case has a weighty feel due to the rare turned bezel and multi-faceted lugs, which are seldom seen in watches from this era. The dial features an upright index and dolphin hands, which are combined with a triple-colored scale, giving the watch a splendid vintage look and feel. The watch is powered by the famous Cal.285 movement, which is renowned for its unique dial and was used in many chronograph models from the 1930s to the 1960s.
