Universal Geneve White Shadow

With the recent revival of Universal Genève, there's certainly renewed interest in the vintage pieces produced from the brand. In particular, the White Shadow line were known to be a series of ultra-slim stainless steel dress watches. Designed by Gerald Genta, White Shadows are sought after by watch enthusiasts and collectors alike. Today's reference, the White Shadow Ultra Slim Ref. 866105, is an excellent example of the brand's technical expertise in making timepieces. Produced between the 1960s and 1970s, the design of this watch endures through the decades and still looks as elegant and graceful when worn today. Sporting a square case with subtle cushion-like curves, this timepiece blends technical excellence with a refined design aesthetic, giving you both style and substance in a watch. The dial is minimalist, with stick hands and hour markers, bringing an aura of quiet power when adorned. This watch runs on the groundbreaking micro-rotor Cal. 2-66 movement, which was known to be one of the thinnest automatic movements when it was produced. It allows the watch to be slim to slip under the cuff easily, and wears comfortably on the wrist. Even today, such a slim movement is an engineering marvel to behold! A true collector's piece, the White Shadow Ultra Slim Ref. 866105 is indeed outstanding. With a timeless style and solid movement, this watch will certainly serve its owner for decades to come.
