About the brand|ユニバーサルジュネーブ

1894年、スイス・ル・ロックル。時計学校を出たばかりの二人の青年、デコンブとペレが興した工房が始まりです。1919年にジュネーブへ移り、以後この街の名を社名に冠しています。

のちにロイヤルオークやノーチラスを手がけるジェラルド・ジェンタが、まだ無名だった1954年に設計したのがユニバーサルのポールルーター。1965年には厚さ2.3mm、当時世界最薄の自動巻きを積んだシャドウを発表しました。

そのユニバーサルが、70年代にクォーツへ舵を切り、自動巻きを手放します。ブランドはその後長く市場から姿を消しました。知的財産が買い戻され、復活が動き出したのは2023年のことです。

— Minimalism of the 1970s —

One of Universal Genève's masterpieces, born in the early 1970s.

Its silhouette, stripped to the absolute minimum, still gives off a commanding modernity half a century later.

— The beauty of an oval that wraps the wrist —

A C-line case drawing smooth curves.

The mesh bracelet, designed to read as one with the case, settles gently on the wrist and sits beautifully at a shirt cuff.

The silver dial with its handsome vertical hairline carries only very fine baton indexes and two hands.

A universal beauty, beautifully concentrated into this one watch.

An in-house movement developed to achieve a commanding thinness. Proof of the high technical capability of a manufacture of its day.

— An in-house slim calibre, alive inside —

Universal Genève's celebrated manual Cal.1-42 quietly marks time.

Every time you wind the crown, your fingertips feel the universal pleasure of owning a vintage watch.

— Wearing history —

Look closely and the fine ageing that has appeared in the acrylic crystal speaks for the real time this watch has travelled.

Enjoy in your own collection a special timepiece that adds intelligent dignity to daily life.
