Late 1930s Universal Ref. 7074 Very rare 38mm early snapback waterproof 3-register chronograph with wide step design. The 38mm snap-back waterproof case with big pushers gives this precious piece a massive look that is typical of early waterproof chronographs. The snap-back waterproof chronographs are known to have three types of bezel variations, and the wide flat bezel on this piece accentuates the sense of massiveness, and the three-register chronograph, which was rare in this era, further enhances the rarity of the piece. It is equipped with Universal's famous Cal. 285 chronograph.It comes with a very valuable original vintage strap.
