UNIVERSAL GENEVE, AERO-COMPAX REF. 22477, AN ATTRACTIVE STEEL CHRONOGRAPH WRISTWATCH

The Aero-Compax was designed for pilots and would allow them to set two time zones as well as calculate speed with the chronograph and tachometric scale. The extract from archives for this watch confirms the red and blue tachometric scale around the dial as well as the steel baton hour and minute hands.

The present timepiece’s dial has acquired a warm patina over time and impresses with its oversize (for its time) case proportions. This is an opportunity for vintage enthusiasts to grab an interesting chronograph with a storied history.
