In 1917, Perret & Berthoud, which would become Universal Genève in the mid 30’s, launched its first chronograph wristwatch.
A complete family of chronographs would follow under the name "Compax". However, Universal Genève did not only produce chronographs - it also had an exclusive collection of calendar watches, like the present one. This triple calendar displays the day in a window at 12 o’clock, and the month, the date and the moonphases in the subdials.
Despite the amount of "information" on the dial, this watch remains highly legible thanks to its very large dial. Preserved in mint condition, this so-called "new-old-stock" is a gem, with very attractive claw lugs that should seduce the new collectors and savvy ones alike.
