UNIVERSAL GENEVE 11305 18KP Mens Vintage Cal.291 Triple Calendar Moonphase Pink Gold 34.5mm

Description

REMARKS: Vintage wristwatch in this Universal Geneve 18K Pink Gold Triple Calendar Moonphase Mens Wristwatch from the 1950s.  Universal Geneve was well known for their complicated calendar and chronograph watches in which they are most famous for the Tri-Compax models.  This specimen has model reference engraved on caseback as 11305 and it has triple calendar display with moonphase in 18K pink gold case.  Inside the watch Universal Geneve calibre 291 serves as the timekeeper.  The pink gold markers/hands that match the case color is particularly nice and stunning for this 70+ years old vintage wristwatch.  The horned-shaped lugs on the watch also gives it quite a flair that only vintage watches can provide.

CONDITION REPORT: Condition-wise the watch winds and runs and all calendar functions work including from the correctors on the side of case.  However, it has not been serviced so we cannot guarantee any of its functional elements (no guarantee on timekeeping accuracy, it is working ok currently) of this watch and will leave the decision for maintenance or service to the end user.  IT IS A VINTAGE WATCH AND NOT WATER-RESISTANT.  Cosmetically this watch is in good pre-owned shape for a 70+ years old vintage watch with great patina to its wonderful 100% original dial.  There is a slight bump underneath the 4 o’clock marker on the dial and a more obvious dark spot just to the left of the date window.  The 18K pink gold case has various scratches and abrasions and slight dings but no major issues.  There are various areas of tarnish consistent with lack of polish so that the engravings are still sharp.  The Swiss 18K hallmark is still visible from side of case body.  The plastic/hesalite crystal is quite clean as well.  New condition black leather strap and gold-plated buckle are not-UG (aftermarket) fitted nicely to pair with this watch.  Diameter is 34.5mm, guaranteed 100% authentic.
