145.022-69 (Left), Universal
Genevé Compax Valjoux 72
(right). The UG Compax is a new arrival
this week for
me...
Since
you all haven't seen this Compax
previously, here are some additional
shots...
Seeing where the c.861 and v.72
movements are comparable sizes, this
Compax illustrates that Omega could make a
"reduced moonwatch manual wind" if they
choose to. I think a Moonwatch sized like
this would appeal to ladies as well as men
who do not wish to have a larger watch on
their wrist. The Big watch trend has been
with us for nearly 10 years. Who's going
to be the first to go the other way?
