Please see our ChronoTrader Policies and Terms of Use. Learn more about How To Include Photos In Your Postings.

Rules: Postings must be an ad announcing an intent to sell, buy or trade. Full item description and photo(s) must be posted within the message here, not as links to other websites. Links to online auctions and other sites: Links to online auctions, dealer sites or other listings of items are permitted, but you should be careful to ensure that such listings will comply with our other ChronoTrader Policies. In addition, we request that sellers linking to online auctions or listings offer some benefit or accomodation to ChronoTrader readers (for example, some discount or an undertaking to end an auction early, to keep a watch "in the family"). Photos must be of the actual item for sale in its present condition. No counterfeit or replica products. No post for the same item may be repeated within 7 days, except to lower the asking price. Commercial dealers are limited to three unique posts per day. [More...]

Re: Universal Geneve Tri-Compax ref 22258 PRICE DROP 3700

: This is a beautiful Universal Geneve Tri Compax ref 22258, serial
: number dates to circa 1944 from the US market (you can tell by
: the UOW import stamp)

: Calibre 481. Functions; Seconds, Minutes,
: Hours, Chronograph, Triple Calendar with
: english day/month discs

: The watch works and keeps time but once the chronograph is engaged
: for just under a minute the entire watch stops, other functions
: work properly

: All of the hands are in blue steel with the exception of the
: chronograph second's hands in a faded metallic colour and the
: date pointer in red. I have seen other Tri Compax with this
: configuration.

: It has been polished by the previous owner

: There's a dent on the crown which makes me believe it's the
: original

: The watch must have been in storage for sometime because only half
: of the moonphase is faded

: Gorgeous font, slight marks a bit all over the dial, I'm not sure
: why or how they got there

: PRICE: $4500 USD
