[WTS] 1945 Universal Genève Tank “Cioccolatone” Cal. 265 | $650
Probably one of the coolest (and rarest) tank-style watches I’ve seen by Universal Genève. It features a stunning case with beefy lugs, a crisp white/champagne dial, and a gorgeous thick crystal for a ton of vintage charm. Just look at it – it’s huge! Inside the Enversteel case is the UG caliber 265, a workhorse 17-jewel movement from the 1940s. According to the serial number in the caseback, the watch was made in 1945. Looks great for a piece that’s 80 years old, don’t you agree? **Condition:** Very good for its age. No major scratches or scuffs. The crystal has some wear, but replacing it would be sacrilegious. The dial also has some patina. Please see the pictures for a better description. **Case Size:** 27 x 39.2mm Enversteel stainless steel case with a thickness of 6.0mm (10.5mm if you count the crystal) and a lug width of 16mm. **Movement:** Universal Genève 265, manual wind, 17 jewels. I don’t know its service history, but everything is working as it should. **Price:** Asking $650. Please add $20 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 +6% for currency conversion fees on the latter. I’m located in Portugal, but worldwide shipping isn’t an issue. Established seller with over 220 transactions – buy with confidence!
