Details
Description
The Universal Genève Swiss watch brand was founded in 1894, and developed in-house movements to equip its collections. Several models are still highly sought after among collectors to this day. This minimalist design is a manual wind with the second hand displayed on the subsidiary dial at 6 o'clock. It's a timepiece that can be worn for any occasion.
Honest Vintage: The Greg Selch Collection
A native New Yorker from a family of connoisseurs, Greg Selch has collected watches for over 20 years, among many other things. Over the years, Selch has become well-known for his passion: “orphan watches” as well as well-worn watches with patina, for which a term has been created: #selchism.
