Universal Geneve Tri-Compax 'Evil Clapton' 881101/02
Universal Geneve Tri-Compax 'Evil Clapton' 881101/02
Is this the coolest Universal Geneve ever made? It's certainly right up there as far as I'm concerned. This particular reference is known as the 'Evil Clapton', as Eric Clapton was known to wear the white dialed version in the 70's. That version is known as the Clapton, and the opposing colour scheme is known as the "Evil Clapton'.
This example presents in excellent vintage condition. Features the 36mm Twisted Lug HF case that is in very sharp condition. Reverse panda dial has had the tritium professionally stripped as these are known to flake quite badly. Hands are original and retain their tritium. They show some scratching. Dot over ninety (DON) bezel in amazing condition.
Serial number is barely visible on the back, and is 2471XXX.
Currently mounted on a beautiful Colareb Torino 19mm Calf Leather strap in black.
Apparently serviced in the past few years by the previous retailer, and we have no reason to doubt them. Winds smoothly, keeps good time, all functions operating as they should.
Watch only.
These don't pop up too often, and prices are on the rise. Get it while you can.
