Description

Gorgeous Universal Genève White Shadow, a two-hand model powered by the legendary micro-rotor calibre 1-66, one of the brand’s most iconic and technically sophisticated movements, renowned for its thinness and innovative design.

The silver dial shows very light ageing with a tiny scratch, giving the watch an appealing vintage character. The case is in very good condition with very light wear The acrylic crystal is new. The crown is correctly signed with the “U” logo.

The movement has just undergone a complete service: disassembled, cleaned, re-lubricated, and adjusted. It runs very well, with excellent balance amplitude—a strong indicator of healthy mechanical performance.

This is a particularly elegant, slim and refined timepiece, showcasing the best of Universal Genève’s design language developed by Gérald Genty. It stands today in very good shape for a vintage watch.

As with many older pieces, its full history is unknown, but it was serviced in 01/2026, checked and cleaned. Water resistance has not been tested.

The photos show the watch exactly as it is and form an essential part of the description, so please review them carefully.
