Universal Genève
Unisonic-Sub
Tuning Fork Movement / Original bracelet by Gay Frères


Intro

A very rare and special diving watch by Universal Geneve, one of the few divers with the famous Bulova Accutron Cal. 218 tuning folk movement.

Story

The tuning fork movement is called the Universal cal. 52 but is actually a Bulova Accutron 218D movement. Many parts were finished by Universal to higher standards but parts are interchangeable with standard 218 parts! Universal went so far as to design a special logo for the Unisonic range, a combination of the Accutron and UG logo, as seen on the dial and integrated bracelet by the manufacturer Gay Frères.
