Brand: Universal Genève Model: Altesse Ultra-Thin "Tensho". A masterpiece of rare beauty, sober and elegant, famous for being part of a very small series produced by the maison with a customized dial in Oriental characters. This design combines the minimalism of the dress watches in the Altesse line ("Altezza") with the artistic and cultural complexity of the painted hours, recalling the ancient style of East Asian seal calligraphy (Tensho). Winding: Manual mechanical movement (Manual-winding) by turning the crown. Case material: Steel with a premium yellow gold plating (mirror-polished finish). Linear circular profile ultrathin with a knurled press-push crown and a smooth, thin bezel that maximizes the dial’s visual opening. Snap-on stainless steel caseback. Dial color: Champagne gold with a satin and glossy finish. It hosts twelve imposing hour indices painted in black, rendered in the classic Seal Script calligraphic style. Under 12 o’clock is positioned the iconic applied logo of the shield with the letter "U" and the printed writings UNIVERSAL / GENEVE. At the base, at 6 o’clock, only the legal origin inscription SWISS appears. It is equipped with two central baton hands, symmetric and blued in black, without luminescent material to preserve the cleanliness and the graphic rigor of the calligraphic work. Case diameter: 31 mm Crystal: Exalite crystal (Plexiglass) slightly domed Strap: Aftermarket Strap material: Leather Strap color: Brown leather Strap length: Standard unisex (adjustable via the spring bars). Clasp: Classic pin buckle Clasp material: Metal plated in yellow gold coordinated to the warm tones of the main case Included with standard box, no warranty.
