Catalogue note
An emblem of Universal Genève’s ultra-thin micro-rotor era, the Gilt Shadow is defined by its elegant cushion form and beautifully restrained dial styling. The radiant gold sunburst surface is finished with crisp black Roman numerals, delivering an effortlessly legible, dress-first presence.
At the heart of the watch is the celebrated Caliber 2-66 automatic micro-rotor, engineered for slim architecture and hallmark Swiss finishing. A gold-toned, flush micro-rotor oscillates with precision, aligning technical achievement with the quiet confidence expected of a true dress watch.
The gold-plated case is complemented by a stainless steel caseback engraved with the reference and serial details, while a domed acrylic crystal preserves a clear view of the impeccably presented dial. The black textured leather strap with contrast stitching completes the look with modern polish and classic restraint.
Presented in excellent vintage condition, the watch shows honest, age-consistent surface wear while maintaining standout dial clarity and strong mechanical performance, making it a compelling collectible for lovers of ultra-thin horology.
