Beautiful and rare chronograph. Round case. Screwed background. Graduated rotating bezel. Cream dial with three counters, totalizer from the minutes to three hours, totalizer for hours to six hours and small at nine at nine o'clock. Steel bracelet with deploying loop signed JB champion U.S.A..
Since the 1930s and until the late 1970s, the most beautiful emblematic chronographs have been created.
Universal Geneve just before the Second World War released the Aero Compax. It is a Compax chronograph, equipped with an additional dial, equipped with hands and minutes to memorize the start of an operation, thanks to an additional crown located at 9 am.
But it was in the mid -1960s that Universal Geneva produced a waterproof model with round pushes and a background screwed with ref. 890100/01 is a 24 -hour Aero Compax.
Imagine yourself being deprived of solar references, such as long-haul pilots, astronauts, or speleologists, the 24-hour reading dial will allow you to read the time and know if you are the day or night and thus distinguish the 13 hour and 1 hour, the needle of hours only carry out one rotation of dial in 24 hours when it takes two for classic watches.
The 41 -minute massive box is made of steel with a 24 -hour rotating telescope, the dial is in 3 meters silver, very rare with the totalizer 15 minutes instead of the usual 30 min, a function used by drivers during takeoff.
The Movement and the Caliber UG90, a modified version of Venus 178, mechanical with manual reassembly.
To acquire these kinds of models means paying tribute to the ingenuity of the greatest watchmaking houses and above all have fun with a vintage watch.
