For the Universal Genève Fans among us: Some pics of the Aero Compax.
The Aero Compax is really something, with its 4 subdials! You immediately see it is not an ordinary Chronograph.
Not for me, because my heart has recently been taken by another UG Chrono, but I know that this one has a lot of fans, so it is a pleasure to share, discover or rediscover it:
Enjoy!
Best,
Nicolas.

Very impressive chrono. Has a cal. 285, no? Is it a reputable movement?
Really looking forward to all the chrono pictures!
Yes, a Cal 285.
I didn't hear someone complaining about Cal 285 reliability. I will show you, form time to time, some UG marvels, and most of all, my two favourites... Hmmm! Best, my friend. Nicolas
Sorry my Friend I don't see this post
It's really cute aero-compax! I love UG!!! The caliber 285 is proportionate- beautiful -strong and very reliable. Many manufactures used it as JLC and Zenith. All the best Juan
Nico..Look this Smaller UG Chrono.
With caliber 386 -(D=31.70mm). In this case the model is "Compax 30". The Best Juan ...
Well, I already have a small idea... But I have to harass its owner...
To be honest, I have two small ideas... :) Best, Juan. Nicolas
