Manufactured in the mid-1930s, this Universal timepiece is equipped with the renowned Cal.285 'Comper' movement, a 35mm Calatrava Chronograph with a rare square index dial. The beautiful Calatrava case, featuring a flat bezel, is non-waterproof but exhibits a substantial and elegant design. The square index dial, rarely seen in Universal watches, presents a unique presence and a splendid taste, despite its seemingly simple appearance, distinguishing itself from complex dial designs. This exceptional piece is a unique creation from Universal, using an unusual steel back case, adding to its rarity.
