A seldom-seen Universal Genève Altesse reference 842101 from the 1960s, crafted in stainless steel and distinguished by its captivating natural wood dial. Depending on the light, the grain shifts from rich reddish mahogany to deep walnut, complemented by crisp white printed Universal Genève signature and applied silver baton hour markers that subtly contrast against the organic surface.. The slim polished case and minimalist baton markers allow the organic beauty of the dial to take centre stage. Powered by the manually wound UG-42 movement and fitted with a custom brown Crazy Horse leather strap, this is a wonderfully understated dress watch that quietly stands apart from its contemporaries.
