Once one of the best-kept secrets among vintage watch enthusiasts, the brand’s recent revival has finally returned the spotlight to a manufacture that always deserved more recognition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"777\" data-start=\"447\"\u003eAs a result, vintage UG prices have seen a steady surge, most notably for flagship models such as the Polerouter and the various Compax's. But there is far more to vintage UG. Across the few decades the brand was active, it produced a remarkably diverse catalogue of well-made watches, many of which remain excellent value today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1316\" data-start=\"779\"\u003eThe watch we have here hails from the post-war era and is a charming time-only dress piece. Its 34 mm round case, spearhead markers, and sub-seconds at six o’clock evoke design cues reminiscent of Omega Seamasters and Rolex Oysters of the same period. Despite being over 70 years old, the watch is in fantastic condition. The dial has developed a striking creamy patina, with all radium lume intact and aged to a warm pumpkin hue. The case is particularly sharp, with caseback engravings that look as though they just left the factory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1538\" data-start=\"1318\"\u003eInside, the Caliber 262 is running beautifully at +5 seconds per day with 250 amplitude and a 0.4 ms beat error. A wonderful watch full of vintage charm, and displaying autumnal tones that make it all the more special.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Universal Geneve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56701447930242,"sku":null,"price":1195.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0904\/9201\/0882\/files\/HERO_ONLY15.jpg?v=1765971867","url":"https:\/\/falco-watches.com\/products\/universal-geneve-212156-radium-dial","provider":"Falco","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
