FUNCTIONAL BEAUTY

The Compax capsule editions combine Universal Genève’s chronograph mastery with modern creativity. Powered by the UG-200 movement with integrated Microtor™, column-wheel chronograph, and vertical clutch, each edition ensures precise timing and smooth operation. The ceramic bezel, tachymeter scale, and clearly defined counters enhance usability, while carefully executed finishes and subtle details create a harmonious balance of technical excellence and aesthetic sophistication.

CULTURAL HERITAGE

Rooted in Universal Genève’s iconic chronograph lineage, the Capsule line draws inspiration from the daring spirit of Nina Rindt, who personalized her original Compax with distinctive flair. By reimagining mid-century design codes through playful, contemporary finishes, these editions honor the Maison’s legacy while offering collectors and enthusiasts a fresh, spirited interpretation of a classic icon.

ANOBLISSEMENT

In the Compax Capsule editions, artistry is expressed through subtle textile-inspired surfaces, nuanced color contrasts, and meticulously treated materials. From translucent lacquer dials that evoke fabric textures to leather straps mimicking denim, each detail elevates the chronograph into a wearable expression of craftsmanship and creative sophistication.
