Name: 1960s Universal Genève Ultra-Slim Pocket Watch In Steel
SKU: 246442

Our Take

As fashion trends have evolved in the modern era, pocket watches may have taken a backseat to wristwatches in the modern era, but this ultra-thin example from Universal Genève retains modern lines and a subtle profile that, quite frankly, wouldn’t seem out of place today. The dial layout is magnificently restrained, and the ultra-thin, stainless-steel case, which is free of significant dings or blemishes, is well-proportioned and attractive. Slip it into an inner suit pocket and you have an ultra-cool timepiece that only you know about.

What we Love and What You Should Know

There are some light scratches to the caseback and some blemishes on the dial and crystal. Note that the case was not opened to photograph the movement in order to avoid damage to the dial. Overall, the watch is running well when fully wound, and the blemishes to the front of the dial are not significantly noticeable.
