Specialist note

The present Universal is a well-preserved example of the oversized Tri-Compax model, distinguished by its case which has never been subject to careless polishing. It is impressive how the sharp edges have survived in such crisp condition in over 75 years of existence. The overall condition is further enhanced by the original dial with blue and red coloured telemeter and tachymeter scales.
