The stainless steel case of the White Shadow kept the watch thin, elegant, and dressy. The dimensions are 35.0 mm x 37.7 mm x 8.5 mm. The thinness of the watch is quite remarkable, knowing that the crystal is a dome acrylic which counts for at least a third of the total thickness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The crown is &#8216;U&#8217; signed, as it is on every Universal Gen\u00e8ve watch.
