The COMPAX
A stainless steel case frames a white lacquered dial punctuated by contrasting chronograph counters, reviving the iconic “panda” configuration long associated with the Compax. The engraved ceramic tachymeter bezel reinforces the chronograph’s racing spirit, while Super-LumiNova® indexes and hands ensure clarity. Paired with a dark brown alligator leather Bund strap, the watch nods to Nina Rindt’s distinctive styling. The brown Bund cuff offers two ways to wear the strap, adding versatility to its bold, vintage-inspired character.
FUNCTIONAL BEAUTY
Conceived to combine performance with elegance, the Compax Prêt-à-Porter pairs the expressive design of a sporting chronograph with the technical sophistication of Universal Genève’s new UG-200 calibre. Featuring an integrated Microtor™, column-wheel chronograph and vertical clutch, the movement delivers precise, fluid operation with a “weekend-proof” 72-hour power reserve.
CULTURAL HERITAGE
The Compax continues one of Universal Genève’s most celebrated chronograph legacies. Long associated with style and individuality embodied by figures such as Nina Rindt, the design has become a favorite among collectors over the decades. In the Prêt-à-Porter editions, this heritage is reinterpreted with contemporary refinement while preserving the confident spirit that defined the original Compax.
ANOBLISSEMENT
In the Compax Prêt-à-Porter editions, the chronograph design is refined through thoughtful detailing and finishing. Contrasting subdials, sculptural lugs and engraved tachymeter bezels are complemented by sun-brushed surfaces and polished accents, elevating the chronograph’s sporty character through craftsmanship and aesthetic precision.
