What makes the Universal Geneve Golden Shadow so exclusive?
More than 150 precision parts, 25 rubies, shock protection, all artfully assembled into a movement - with a 46-hour power reserve - 2.5 mm high and 32 mm in diameter...so flat that it easily fits into a 5-franc piece.
The Microtor - the oscillating weight patented for Universal Genève - ensures automatic winding with movements in all directions. To reduce the height of the movement, it was recessed into it.
The use of three ball bearings instead of the usual pivots in the changer (also a Universal Genève patent) facilitates winding and increases reliability.
Additionally it comes in flawless condition including the original Box & Papers.
