Universal Genève | Retailed By Cartier

Sold Out

Universal Genève, founded in 1894, is celebrated for its technical innovation and refined Swiss craftsmanship. During the mid-20th century, the brand’s reputation for quality led to select collaborations with Cartier, who retailed Universal Genève watches in their boutiques. These double-signed pieces are now highly prized by collectors for their rarity and the unique blend of Universal Genève’s watchmaking with Cartier’s prestige.
