The Space-Compax, part of Universal Genève’s celebrated Compax series of chronographs, is undoubtedly one of the brand’s most unusual designs. Various speculations exist regarding the origins of its name and purpose. Launched during the early years of space exploration in the 1960s, one theory suggests that it may have been designed as a potential replacement for the Omega Speedmaster as NASA's watch of choice.
Manufactured in two generations, the present example is from the first, distinguished by its all-black dial configuration. In contrast, the second generation showcases white subsidiary registers and a prominent numeral at 12 o’clock.
Designed as a diver's watch, the Space-Compax features a black rotating bezel and rubber-capped chronograph pushers. Its bold, masculine aesthetic is further emphasized by the large case size, black dial with geometric luminous indexes, striking hands, and red accents.
Offered in excellent overall condition, the present timepiece is furthermore accompanied by its steel Universal Geneve and Gay Frères bracelet, blank Certificate of Guarantee, sales tag, product literature, presentation box and outer packaging - all rarities by themselves.
