![]() |
The Universal Genève Compax 184.450 is part of a rich watchmaking history, marked by the exceptional know-how of the Universal Genève house. Founded in 1894 in Switzerland, Universal Genève is one of the most iconic brands in watchmaking, famous for its high-precision chronographs. The Compax model, first introduced in the 1930s, quickly gained a reputation for its elegant design and chronometric performance. Compax chronographs have become symbols of refinement, often associated with personalities from the worlds of sport and aviation.
The Compax 184.450 model, launched in the 1970s, represents one of the brand's flagship creations during this period. This model illustrates the transition towards watches with a more modern design, with angular cases and integrated bracelets, while retaining the timeless DNA of the Universal Genève. The watch integrates technical innovations and high-end mechanical chronograph movements.
