Old universal watch 18k

[Fyrguy86]

Found this by an old house. Universal Geneva 18k. Tried finding info but I haven't seen anything like it. Anybody know about them? Thanks.

Beautiful. Anyhting labeled 18K is always a great find.

WOW that's a nice watch! Congratulations !

Awesome watch! Given the serial number, it seems it was made between 1955-1956. I'll add more as I find more

Ok, you'll need to get the back off (I'd take it to someone to get this done). This will reveal the makers stamps on the mechanism and determine it's authenticity.

Very nice. I would have it fixed up and keep it for sure. Really nice watch.

Wa wa wee wah!

Absolutely amazing. I hope it's worth a ton of money!

-Lady Liberty is hot stuff...especially on a coin

Here's the inside. The inside of cover has
17W
16

Which is directly above the universal Geneva shield

Congrats on the gold watch, most of the watch people find are copper!

Awesome!!! The 750 means 18k. Looks like an authentic Geneve. $$$$$$$$

Very nice 18K find indeed !!! How rare of a find are these and how high does that much gold read out I wonder, over copper penny? My watches lately are all cheap pot metal, hardly worth 1 cent.

 

[Fyrguy86]

Any idea as far as value?

This is a very rare find - if the housing is solid 18k - and a big name maker - I'm thinking BANNER !

I have a cheap scale. Read 1.4 oz. but that's on a northern tool cheap scale.

Real nice bracelet clock you got there. Very nice retro look. Worth a lot more than melt

Exceptionally nice find. That one is not pictured in my books but everything looks right and it appears to be in good enough condition to repair without a lot of problems.
Congratulations and HH
