[WTS] 1970s Vintage Universal Genève “Tank” Ref. 3550 in Vermeil | $800
Here’s a proper sleeper from Universal Genève – reference 3350, a clean, rectangular piece that leans hard into that classic Cartier Tank aesthetic but with UG’s own mid-century character.
The stepped French-made case is gold-plated silver, also known as vermeil, giving it that warm tone you just don’t get from standard plating. It's powered by a UG-142 manual wind movement.
Elegant, well-sized (29 x 40mm), and full of old-school charm. It’s exactly the kind of vintage dress watch that UG collectors love to get.
Condition: Good. The case has some usage marks consistent with age but overall it’s in decent condition. The dial is in extremely good condition, with crisp lettering and barely any patina. Please see the pictures for full condition and clarity.
Case Size: 29 x 40m gold-plated silver (vermeil) case with a lug width of 18mm.
Movement: Universal Genève 1-42, manual wind with 17 jewels, 21,600 bph, and a 43-hour power. Service history is unknown, but everything works as it should.
Price: Asking $800. Please add $30 for worldwide shipping. Payment methods include Wise, ACH transfer, Revolut, Bitcoin (On-Chain or Lightning), or PayPal G&S for buyers with solid references. Add +7.5% for currency conversion fees on the latter. Portugal has suspended all local post shipments to the US, but I can still ship with UPS ($120). US buyers may have to pay a 15% tariff on arrival.
