Universal GENEVE “Collection 66”

European Watch Clock and Jewellery Fair 1989 BF 206
When Universal Genève introduced its “calibre 66” in 1966, it was the thinnest seifwinding movement made : barely 2.50 mm. Its secret was an off-centred mini rotor moving on four ball-bearings. Today it is back, in Universal Genève’s “Collection 66” line, lodged in a water-resistant 18K gold case with beaded decor, engine-turned middle and clear sapphire case back through which to admire the movement’s ceaseless rhythm.
